Although the Lorelai Gilmore's of Stars Hollow only "enjoy certain aspects of various sporting endeavors," their relatability even extends to the feelings surrounding an intense team rivalry. Whether your favorite sport is football, soccer, or ultimate frisbee, we all have that rival team that boils our blood. So this might be how you feel when your team plays their rival, as told by the wonderful characters of "Gilmore Girls."
You're a wreck before the game starts.
You're a little nervous because these games are always intense.
You see the other team and all those ugly memories come back.
This game is giving you way more anxiety than it should.
And you are more than happy to trash talk them with your fellow fans.
Sometimes you just feel better when other people join in on the smack talk.
Your rival makes the first score of the game.
This somehow seems like an omen and now you're worried.
Your team finally scores.
After the first score, the rest are easy, right?
But then one of your players gets hurt.
At this point, you are ready to jump through your TV screen and fight somebody.
It looks like you might lose the game and everyone starts to lose faith.
You believe in your team! You guys can totally catch up!
One of your players gets penalized for being a bit too aggressive.
Just when you were looking like the classy team...
The game is tied with only 10 seconds left.
It doesn't matter who wins. It's just a game, right? WRONG!
Your team wins after what seems like the longest game ever.
You're kind of sad the anticipation and excitement is over... But no other victory has ever tasted so sweet!
