    There are dozens of us!

    My country pretty much lives hockey, so people don’t even ask whether you watch, it’s assumed you do, so they’ll ask stuff like “that match yesterday was awesome, right?” or directly reference something that happened in said match and then look at you like their mind can’t comprehend someone doesn’t watch hockey.

      Conan O’Brien taught me how to deal with this situation decades ago.

      Just say, “yeah, it was a real nailbiter!” that should buy you enough time to run away.
