As I’m writing this there’s a fireworks show going on at Toyota Park. The thin crowd that showed up on a Wednesday— with long-time supporters either explicitly told they’re not welcome or staying away out of solidarity— sat through a humiliating loss and then were encouraged to stick around and watch fireworks.
If I were a better writer I’m sure I could tie that together into a metaphor for the state of the Chicago Fire.
