[Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire] Did anyone else find spectating the Second and Third tasks of the Triwizard Cup to be incredibly dull? Why were the spectator's stands even there?

I mean the first task was very exciting, the champions took on dragons! Me and my friends thought that was really really great to watch! 

But looking at a lake for an *hour*? We needed the mer-chieftainess to tell us what happened down in the lake - I also heard a rumour that one of the ghosts helped that Potter kid. Maybe if we'd had the champions under scrying spells then we could have seen better *and* checked for rulebreaking!

As for the third task, looking at a maze for however long was no better! And with two of the champions out stunned and one of them dead! Without seeing what happened, how are we to believe that Potter didn't snap and go on a rampage in there?

The stands were there so students could receive the results close to the action, actively support their champions, and enjoy the specialness of the occasion. It's natural for us muggles to compare it to, say, basketball or football matches and to desire the jumbotron. But the triwizard tournament is a centuries old tradition with its own customs and ways of doing things. Wizards are fine entertaining themselves while they wait.
