I came into the Wizards vs. Bulls game with a sore neck and a headache, and I emerged with a serious case of eyesore. Watching the game was a stultifying chore made marginally better by the little things like Benny the Bull hitting a no-look half court shot during a timeout.
Seriously, top highlights of the evening were the National Anthem performed on uilleann pipes, and the halftime Irish dance show.
They did play a basketball game, which the Wizards lost. By 28 points. It wasn’t that close a contest. Truth is, the Bulls didn’t even play all that well.
