Inspiration for creating GameDay Culture

Traveling with father to ballgames

One of Kern’s fondest memories (and he still does it to this day) is traveling around the country with his father to watch ballgames together. They would arrive early to soak up the atmosphere, watch the marching bands and cheerleaders, and stay until the very end, cherishing every moment of the experience.

Experiencing the various aspects of game day culture

Through these experiences, Kern became fascinated by the pageantry and tradition that goes into gameday at sports venues, from tailgating to the passion and dedication of the fans in the stands. He recognized that the culture of sports touched not just the players but everyone involved, including the parents, cheerleaders, marching bands, and devoted fans.

Realizing the impact of sports on people’s lives

Inspired by these experiences and his love for sports, Kern decided to create GameDay Culture as a way to share his passion and tell the stories within the world of athletics. He wanted to build a platform that would celebrate the power of sports in bringing people together, fostering a sense of community, and shaping personal growth.

Why GameDay Culture? What’s in the name?

As I’ve transitioned from being a player on the field to a parent and supportive fan in the stands, I’ve realized there is so much more than just playing the game.

Since I was little, my father and I would travel around the country to see ballgames together. We always have to count the number of tuba players in each of the marching bands to see who has more.

We don’t go get food at halftime because we want to see the band perform too.

We get there early to watch the students file into the stands.

We watch the cheerleaders to see who has the most impressive stunts and cheers.

We stay to the bitter end of games and comment on those people who leave early and how they might miss the greatest comeback of all times. On at least five different occasions, I can think of being there to see the impossible.

The culture of sports touches so many people. It’s not just the players — It’s the parents, the cheerleaders, the marching band, and all of the passionate fans supporting their favorite team.

Kern Campbell, Founder – GameDay Culture

So much pageantry and tradition goes into gameday at sports venues.

I once heard the guys on the BGP podcast say they wanted to see their fans and school “Win the parking lot (best tailgating), win in the stands (best fans – be loud, stay late and support the team), and win on the scoreboard (win the game).”

That statement stuck with me.

It really describes how my father and I think about our efforts when attending a game. We want to have a welcoming tailgate party. We want to arrive early, stay late, and always be loud in supporting our team (win or lose), and hopefully, by doing our part as fans, it will help our team win the scoreboard and earn the victory on the field.

I started GameDay Culture to share my passion for sports and help tell the story within the story of athletics.
