2018 World Cup...the owner's son at the place I was working at was going through a stage where he "liked soccer" (we are in the US), and in some sort of attempt to look cool or something, he streamed the games in the lunch room on projectors, at the collaboration table TV's, and they allowed employees to stream the game at their desks.
After the first day, the rest of the company complained enough about the speed of the internet that we had to block it on the firewall.

By making it explicitly approved for those rooms, you can limit the people who are doing it more clandestinely. Then you only take the bandwidth hit for a smaller number of streams. Even if you don’t want to encourage it, the better managers would accept that it’s going to happen and then try to minimize the impact.
