By merging fine-grained association football (soccer) ticket data with detailed weather information, we present a novel setting to test projection bias in the field. Since football fans must verify their identity for both ticket purchase and stadium entry, we are able to explore the effect of interest at the individual level. Overall, our findings suggest that intertemporal decision-making by sports consumers is indeed systematically biased. Moreover, we offer some initial evidence in line with the literature on hedonic consumption, since decision-making by women seems to be stronger affected by weather compared to men.
