A home entertainment system or home theater includes an audio/visual
program source with a stereo or surround sound system. An apparatus and
method according to the present invention adds supplemental audio content
to live or pre-recorded events, such as football games, baseball games,
and other sporting events in a spontaneous dynamic environment promoting
group participation and enthusiasm. Random access to the supplemental
audio content instantaneously and by remote control affords a user of the
apparatus an opportunity to creatively add to the viewing experience at
home. Additional treatment of the supplemental audio content is effected
so that home viewers of the event perceive a seamless audio content
including the supplemental audio. Audio effects, such as a simulation of
the reverberation of a stadium or large hall, can also be added to
further increase the sensation of attending a live sporting event.
