I'll say this as a lacrosse parent; I feel like I got an extra XMas present this year going to watch my sons play box lacrosse. I find the box lacrosse game to be immensely more exciting to watch and the kids seem to enjoy it more too. The outdoor game is not nearly as exciting. With the long pauses for face offs and all the breaks for the substitutions on every time down the field the outdoor game is getting to be as boring as baseball.
