# Remember sports? - Link: https://mywalkabout.net/remember-sports/ - Published: 2020-04-11T04:51:17-07:00 - Author: My Walkabout **Who would have thought** that a once simple joy is now just a treasured memory. Although many state that “_we will get through this_“, I have a hard time seeing the light at the end of this dark tunnel. ![](https://i0.wp.com/mywalkabout.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/HipstamaticPhoto- 594398860.821062.jpg?fit=940%2C671&ssl=1) **Sports have always** been a part of my life. Stadium crowds cheering on their team, the excitement of unbelievable plays and comeback victories are the drugs that run through my veins. ![](https://i0.wp.com/mywalkabout.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/IMG_0479.jpg?resize =640%2C480&ssl=1) **This pandemic** has me documenting life in a new way, through the prism of quarantined glasses. It’s funny how I’ve always cherished my solitary lifestyle, yet when I have no freedom in the matter, that solitude rears its ugly head and chews slowly at my psyche. ![](https://i0.wp.com/mywalkabout.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/IMG_0469.jpg?fit =940%2C705&ssl=1) **So I remember that last time** I attended a sporting event, which was in October of 2019. Our beloved University of Utah Runnin’ Utes were playing in Seattle against the pesky Huskies. We pull out a victory as my friends and I cheer and hug each other. We can smell a championship looming on the horizon. Yet it wasn’t a championship that was coming, it was the end of the world, at least the one that many of us knew before COVID-19. ### Share this: * [ Email ](https://mywalkabout.net/remember-sports/?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20Remember%20sports%3F&body=https%3A%2F%2Fmywalkabout.net%2Fremember-sports%2F&share=email) * [Post](https://x.com/share) * [Share on Tumblr](https://www.tumblr.com/share) * [ WhatsApp ](https://mywalkabout.net/remember-sports/?share=jetpack-whatsapp) * [ Nextdoor ](https://mywalkabout.net/remember-sports/?share=nextdoor) * [ Threads ](https://mywalkabout.net/remember-sports/?share=threads) * [[ * [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) * [ Reddit ](https://mywalkabout.net/remember-sports/?share=reddit) ### Like this: Like Loading…
