BROOKLYN, N.Y. — Whether it was the relatively early 2 p.m. weekday tip time, a lack of sleep from a late Monday night or the tranquil atmosphere inside the sparsely populated Barclays Center, a Pitt fan seated several rows behind the Panthers’ pep band in one of the arena’s end zones was lulled to sleep Tuesday.
With his team trailing Boston College by 11 at halftime, 33-22, it was hard to fault him, particularly since he made the effort to be at a game only maybe 2,000 others were attending.
Though his eyes eventually opened back up, what he awoke to see likely made him wish they were still shut.
