Have you experienced an activity that might be happily shared even by people who really disapprove of each other?

I was reading all the answers on the relaxation question and noting that I found myself thinking, ‘I could do that’ for just about all the activities and all the people who answered. This is in contrast to other questions where I sharply disagree with some people, and that makes me feel like it would be very uncomfortable to spend time with them.

That lead me to the idea of this question. Is there some activity that everyone could comfortably do together without getting upset, even if those two people didn’t like each other, otherwise?

I don’t think that listening to music at a concert would count. Although making music together would. It has to be something any two people could happily do together.

So do you have a candidate for such an activity? Have you ever used that activity to bridge a divide between you and someone you might not ordinarily like? Why do you think this activity works for this purpose?
