The first portion of that headline is true — there will be entertainment at halftime of the NBA All-Star Game, and Sting is a not-half-bad choice. The game will be in Canada, after all, so you knew the choice would be Canadian or British. And Loverboy was unavailable.
The game will be played at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto on Feb. 14 — otherwise known as Valentine’s Day, which is why Loverboy would have been a better choice. Game time is 8 p.m. ET, and Cirque du Soleil will perform a show prior to the game, because when you think NBA, you think midair human pyramids.
