On Sunday afternoon, I went to get a pedicure. My nail place is beside a very popular bar called The Selwyn Pub where civic minded residents often gather to watch sports events (like the ACC Tournament). Actually, everywhere you looked today, people were glued to the game.
When I walked out of the nail salon, I could hear the people at the Selwyn screaming.
Then I scooted on over to Target and when I got to the check out the guy helping looks up at me, with tears in his eyes and says:
"We're losing!"
I said (very gently) "Carolina?" (helpful hint - nobody in North Carolina means 'Duke' when they say 'We'. FYI.)
And he said, quietly, tearfully and shaking his head "It's bad!"
I said "I'm sorry for your loss."
I love March Madness!!
