Riding the Raptors bandwagon to the NBA championship

On Monday I was at the Raptors championship parade, thinking about not being a basketball fan. I was in the middle of the throng on Bay street, squished in between a group of guys who had all taken the next 24 hours off work to do the maximum amount of celebrating possible, and a clutch of office friends who’d come down on their lunch break to catch a bit of the action. The office people were complaining about a coworker who’d been trying to make small talk with them about the Raptors. She probably doesn’t even know the name of a single player, one of the women snorted.
