    Abstract
    In today's digital age video games have quickly and swiftly taken over popular culture due to their popularity as well as their influence.  While video games are relatively new compared to traditional sports such as basketball or football that have been around for hundreds of years, video gaming is taking a calculated leap of faith in becoming among the ranks of the next hot sport.  To some, video games may not be seen as competitive, physical, or even requiring teamwork like a traditional sport would. Video games have been transforming as technology has allowed them to for almost 50 years and will continue to expand and evolve as time goes on.  Video games are more popular than ever before and as long as money fuels and is refueled back into video games they will continue to occupy the minds of children as well as adults everywhere. With a new culture, demands new rules and regulations for the ideals of how to go about treating video games in today's society, together with the future society.  Esports are the future that casual players and competitive players alike have been longing for. Whether you are a spectator or a professional gamer, video game esports are easy to rally behind and easy to love. The public's interpretation of esports is slowly starting to change, but now more than ever before esports can coincide with traditional sports.  Although traditional sports continues to have millions of viewers each year, they are losing popularity due to the gain of interest of esports. Electronic sports have been rapidly gaining in popularity because of a new generation of gamers, video games have become competitive, personable, and enjoyable for the player.
