Years ago, long before the internet was huge, the French CBC in Canada had a strike. The announcers & others walked off, but they still had to broadcast NHL games live.
So they just... broadcast them. No announcers, no play-by-play. Just the skates on the ice and fans in the stands.
It... Was... GREAT! Like being at the game! Their ratings went WAY UP. I watched 2-3 games and loved it.
They rapidly returned to work after that 😄 knowing they were worse than useless.
