As if West Virginians weren’t already the punchline to a thousand jokes…
West Virginia University, only an hour from Pittsburgh and my alma mater, won the NIT tournament.
I know very little about basketball, but apparently this is a good thing, but not a really good thing, because WVU didn’t make the March Madness thingy this year. I’m getting the impression that the NIT tournament is kind of like a door prize for a team didn’t play well enough to have a bracket.
To add insult to the dubious honor of winning the tournament, the t-shirts for the winners were misprinted.
Sigh.
Also, if you take a look at the link to WVU’s page, above, the error has been photoshopped to spell “Virginia” correctly.
