So, I'm at the pub the other night, watching the hockey game. An old buddy from high school shows up, who I haven't seen in about eleven years - I think he moved to Ontario when I was in eleventh grade. We're talking, and I've got my eye on the game in the background.
"Wait. Which team is that?"
"Um, Vancouver," I say.
"But, what happened to their jersey?"
"Uh, they changed it a few years ago."
"But... it's a hockey stick. It's so... boring."
A few people look at us. "Wow, you really aren't a hockey fan, are you?"
He laughs. A few people nearby frown, a bit confused as to what a complete non-sports guy is doing in a place that lives and breathes the canucks.
But then... he points at the screen. "Hey. There's that Luongo guy you were talking about. You know, I never even heard of him until you mentioned his name. He doesn't look like a homo."
More glances. A few glares. I shrink into my chair.
"Um. You're thinking of a different Luongo."
