Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 5704738, member: 173"] In 2014, I was travelling for work in Providence. I went to a bar for dinner, PC was doing well in basketball, had just won the Big East tournament and were headed to the NCAAs (but teams weren’t selected yet). I mentioned they were doing well thinking it would spark conversation and just got confused looks. They could talk about the Bruins Cup chances, complain about the Celtics being trash - but they couldn’t talk about the Friars because it was news to them they’d made the NCAA tournament. I might have gotten a different reaction a few days later after teams were seeded since they would’ve filled out their brackets by then - but it stuck with me that’s how irrelevant Providence basketball is in Providence. I think the few fans that exist are angry because nobody around them cares about the thing they love. [/QUOTE]
