It's a bit tricky. I have done a lot of these things, maybe only once though.
However, I would never pay to go to a football match, or wear football strip. Or rugby, or cricket, baseball, any team sport really.
There's a whole list of vertiginous things I would never do, wing walk on a plane, jump off a bridge on a bungee, parachute from a plane, go rock climbing with a rope, abseil from a height.

For me personally, I would never go to another football match, one was quite enough and bored me to tears!
Can't say I have not been to a festival, however, I have yet to attend a festival involving camping overnight. It is just not for me. The local 2-day one is fine as I can go back home to sleep in my house and bed!
Not going to do anything like sky-diving, bungee jump, zip-lining, hot-air ballooning, and other pursuits that involve being outdoor at a height and/or speed. It is not my cup of tea.
Each to their own and all that.

May be I'm mad, sad or just old but here are things that I'll never, ever do:
I'm committed to never:
a) enter an Ikea,
b) purchase from Amazon, or
c) drink low or zero alcohol drinks.
Have I missed anything? Do you have a list too?
Done the first 2 and still do on a regular basis.
The third was done for research purposes - I tried low and zero beers to see if I liked them when I could not drink alcohol as I was driving; and no, I don't like them, and would prefer to drink the likes of flavoured tonic water (Fever Tree Aromatic is very nice on its own) and other mixers like ginger ale or beer.
In addition, non-alcoholic beers and spirits are similar in price to their alcoholic versions, and I do not believe it is justifiable to charge that much for little or no alcohol in them!

Clearly didn’t go to see the right team. Nothing better than watching your team play and score then go onto win the game.
But I kinda get your point, outwith my own team, watching Scottish football is the equivalent of watching paint dry. If it wasn’t for my team I’d likely stick to watching the English game

Swim in open water, jump out of a plane, or go climbing
Judge anyone else for their personal life choices - be it religion, veganism, temperance, etc etc
Vote Tory (Based on previous post in this thread I'm allowed this :-) )
Miss the Eurovision song contest
Manage to pull a proper wheelie - never could and still can't
I will never, ever, ever go to horse racing again, or bet on horses, or support that "industry" in any way
Wear Harris Tweed :-)
With you 100% on all of those except Eurovision. On that one I am the complete opposite. I haven't watched it in decades and probably never will.

Colin
