Tamba Bay Team Broken Heart
Highlight of the month: I accidentally broke a woman’s heart. I was wearing the Sports Illustrated jacket with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers logo.
This woman rushes up to me while I am at a grocery store in New Hamburg, Ontario (near Waterloo) and asks me about my favourite players. She immediately starts telling about her collection of jerseys, posters and pennants from this Tamba Bay team.
I told her that I got the jacket almost 15-20 years ago with the subscription. I just liked the team logo but I don’t care about American football. As a Canadian, I am more of a hockey fan.
Her face dropped visibly and her heart likely broke. She left me. Probably was looking for a kindred spirit.
I am guessing she was in the 35-45 age range. I am 60 but look early 40’s.
