Can you imagine playing American Football on the moon? While you might be excited about the idea at first, I'd imagine other feelings would overcome the excitement.
Let's put aside the obvious restrictions of temperature and oxygen supply with some innovative equipment you'd be able to use that'd relieve both issues. Imagine wearing normal gear, and playing on a regular grass field designed on the moon.
The gravity would impact the game so much. Quarterbacks wouldn't be able to toss floaters to WRs because that ball would end up on Earth... or further away. What would happen with a nicely done cutback by a Running Back? That defensive player would probably float-roll away from the field. Kickers and Punters? Absolutely destroyed. Try to kick a Field Goal? A defensive player will just... jump. The shortest vertical would be able to block a kick, but should it pass the defensive line, would the referees be able to spot the trajectory?
