I see a whole lotta yards in my travels, and not a whole lot of baseball and football--the most common things I see people doing in their yards are (roughly in order): - mowing lawn (by FAR most common) - grilling - gardening When I see ppl playing sports it's usually in parks https://twitter.com/MattHeimiller/status/1019310187075850242 …
Funny thing in my case is when my parents finally moved into a typical suburban development, I didn't play in the yard so much--I preferred the street, the nearby park (where my friends were--easier to meet there than to get us all to one person's house), or the woods
