So, Jordan and I went to the Bulls game the other night. During a break in play, it was time for the LuvaBulls to come out and perform. For those that don't know - the LuvaBulls are basically the Bulls' cheerleaders/"dancers". They are clearly not there to court the women or families in attendance. Now, surprisingly, all the girls came out in baggy, shabby clothes carrying weird miscellaneous things like buckets, brooms, mops, etc. At this point, we both kind of looked at each other. And then "It's a Hard Knock Life" from Annie came on and they began singing and dancing in character to the song. I looked at Jordan and said, "So clearly at some point here, they're going to strip off the peasant clothes and start dancing, right?" He shrugged and nodded. We watched some more as the song progressed. "I mean, seriously right? Like they're really only at these games for one purpose." The song continued as a quasi-Broadway song was done on the floor and finally the mean landlady character (another one of these hot cheerleaders dressed in a fat suit and a ridiculous gray whig in curlers) scolded the girls and the song was over. And just like that, they were done. No dancing to some popular dance song. No skimpy outfits. A performance from Annie.
I turned to Jordan. "Do you think it was like Broadway night or something and we missed the announcement?" He answered back, "I don't remember hearing anything. Broadway in Chicago maybe?"
They never actually did any other major dance routines that night. All I could think to say was "That was the weirdest thing I've ever seen. No one wants to see Annie at a Bulls game. I mean, seriously, the weirdest thing ever. That was surreal." And it was.
Plus, the donut beat the coffee in a race where the coffee was literally inches from the finish line with a huge lead and just inexplicably stopped making progress despite his legs continuing to move. I smell a fix. Just a strange night.
