I think it’s actually one of the earliest forms of “spoiler-aversion” that I remember from decades ago.

There’s a funny bit in the show SportsNight where one of the anchors wants to avoid knowing anything about one particular game so he can watch the recording with his new girlfriend after the show. (They get the other anchor to report on that segment, while Dan is just offscreen, wearing muffling headphones.)

It's just... ironic to pick the ONE thing that gets reported in papers, on tv, on the radio. Movie reviews don't do that. TV schedules don't do that. Book reviews don't do that. It's a well known societal expectation that sports events be broadcast far and wide, so to choose to get into that and call such things "spoilers" baffles me.

+1 it is super common for fans to avoid reporting about a game/match/race if they didn’t get to see it live. I haven’t been into sport in a long time but 30+ years ago I would do that and it was normal for years before that. The radio stations would all say they’re going to do the scores and recaps after the next commercial break or at a set time so it was easier to avoid spoiling it for yourself. Although if you support a local sports team chances are you’ll know if it was win or lose even if you avoid learning the score simply based on how everyone else is acting.
