How hard is it to go pro in a sport people actually watch? I'm not trying but just curious.

would depend on if you mean playing in a few games or actually have a lasting professional career, then it would also vary quite a bit by sport. consider the nhl, around 40% of players who get drafted manage to play in at least 1 game, but less than 20% manage to start their 3rd season in the league. mlb is even more difficult, with only around 10% of drafted players even managing to play 1 single game, and only around 5-7% manage to start their 3rd season. in the nba around 25% of players drafted in the 2nd round will never even play a single game in the big leagues. anons on this board will constantly post about how playing in 1000 games in a league is a meaningless accomplishment, when in reality only around 5% of players in nhl/nba/mlb ever reach that milestone.
