Last week I found the six-part documentary "Fever Pitch: The Rise of the Premier League." At the time, the start of the PL was a long shot. Yet 30 yrs later it's massive.
I'm not an esports person. But it's early days. The potential seems to be there.
Slightly off-topic but check your streaming services* for a six-part documentary titled "Fever Pitch - The Rise of the Premier League."
Mind you, I'm into football, but that's not necessarily a requirement. It's part entrepreneurship, part sport, and part soap opera / reality TV. For as massive as the PL it's hard to believe it's just 30 years old.

p.s. If you are a footballer, the segment where Eric Cantona describes himself as an artist, and the pitch his canvas had me reaching for the box of Kleenex. Beautiful words on The Beautiful Game.
* Oddly enough, I found it on the Smithsonian Channel.
