Basically in the area between Baltimore and upstate New York, lacrosse is life in the springtime. It's catching on slowly elsewhere around the country. I actually think that once people start seeing it, it could pass hockey in popularity. It has all the hitting and speed of hockey, plus about 10x the offense.
I'm not a huge lacrosse fan myself, but I think it should get it's due as a popular sport.
