SULLIVAN DISCOVERS GAY FOOTBALL FANS
With a Little Help from the Times

It’s a shame that it took the New York Times to introduce Andrew Sullivan to the concept, the very existence even, of gay football fans.

When I was living in Washington, D.C., one of the best and most eagerly anticipated parties of the year was Norm and Dave’s Annual Super Bowl Party, a reliable blast attended by several hundred mostly gay men and a party so large it usually was held at adjoining suites in the Watergate Hotel.

It’s too bad Sullivan missed out. Those were great days.

-- J.M.C.
