There’s a lot of things you’ll hear over and over again when you’re a spectator at Wimbledon (mostly silence, grunting and British accents calling the ball out), but what are some things you’ll never hear?
21 Things You Will Never Hear Spectators at Wimbledon Say
1. “It’s so loud I can’t hear myself think.”
2. “Not Federer’s best surface.”
3. “I think I’ll pass on the champagne. Can I get a Bud Light?”
4. “That grass looks fake.”
5. “Such a coincidence that everyone’s wearing white!”
6. “Not really a fan of Andy Murray.”
7. “This looks easier to play on than a hard court.”
8. “Don’t think Serena’s gonna win this one.”
9. “Compared to other tennis tournaments, Wimbledon seems way less elitist.”
10. “I hate strawberries.”
11. “I haven’t seen a crowd this rowdy since Woodstock!”
12. “Let’s heckle him.”
13. “What’s a fortnight?”
14. “Bet there’s not a bar in America that isn’t playing Wimbledon matches this week.”

20. “I bought these tickets on Craigslist.”
21. “Doesn’t feel like Djokovic really wants this one.”
