Bette decided to look through the program. This was more interesting than the warm-up and the cheerleaders hadn’t shown up yet.
“Did you know that this place can hold 12,000 people for basketball games? Gosh, that’s impressive!”
“Uhm,” said Tina.
“Did you know that UCLA once won 98 straight games here? 98!”
“Uhm,” said Tina.
“1, 2, 3, 4, 5.6, 7, 8, 9, 10…11,” said Bette as she counted flags, using her finger to count as she pointed at each banner.
“Did you see those flags? Eleven basketball championships! Wow!”
“Uhm,” said Tina.
“How many has USC won?”
“I don’t know.” Tina answered curtly.
A man sitting in front of Bette turned and said, “USC has never won any basketball championships. Not one. Not ever.”
And with those words, it dawned on Bette that her lover wasn’t interested in hearing anything about how beautiful this campus was or how impressive this building was or what a great basketball tradition that UCLA had. Of course not. This was USC’s sworn enemy. It was the Montagues and the Capulets — the Hatfields and the McCoys. Bette didn’t understand sports but she did understand blood feuds. Bette digested the extremity of her faux pas, put the program at her feet and glanced at Tina. Tina was unsmiling.

Later when Bette had told Alice about her egregious error in complimenting UCLA, Alice gasped in horror.
“*****, Bette. What were you thinking?”
“Well, it is a beautiful building. And they have all those banners. It’s like a medieval banquet hall.”
“If you’re from Southern Cal, you think UCLA is pond scum,” explained Alice. “You had better remember that if you intend to hang on to that gorgeous blond of yours. Tina loves her school with the intensity of the true zealot.”
Bette had nodded, now sadder, and wiser..
————-
Bette didn’t know what to say once she realized her mistake, but then the cheerleaders showed up and she was pleasantly distracted. She was so happy watching all the pretty girls. Gosh, she could have written a poem about beautiful lips, loooooong legs, juicy-looking *****. If she had said, ‘Wow,’ about the championships, she was thinking ‘Wow-wow’ about the cheerleaders.
The cheerleaders were very close to the fans. You could almost reach out and.Bette took a deep breath, turned and smiled at Tina who was unsmiling.

it was really funny, reminds me of me and my roomate when we watch the games at home or at the stadium, she’s screams at tv like a maniac and i just quietly eat pop-corn, but what can i say, i’m from another planet, totally loved bette’s reactions and thoughts…but what the hell was it about the hot cheerleader? tina better not to entertain those thoughts, she has bette
It’s an absolute pity that Bette doesn’t fancy any sports games. Let’s see… maybe volleyball or tennis? There’re a lot of beauties there, haha.
Adorable…absolutely adorable!!!
Oh my gosh! Thanks Pancha, you know I love B&T on a sports outing adventure… heh and bette afraid of a light failure… man she is really oblivious to sports. I think tina should of thrown a bigger temper tantrum, that would of been funny. Again, I love this everyday B&T, too cute!
My partner is just like Tina but with football – season ticket and all for Liverpool! I’m sure one of these days she is going to burst a blood vessel!
Hello Pacha,I am a recent convert to your wonderful writing as have just spent most of the last 5 hours reading “S3” and this fantastic fan fiction.Words seem such an inadequate way to letting you know the joy and pleasure you have just given.I am a total addict to your narratives and can’t wait until your next installment.A Fan
I like how Bette gets all child like when Tina’s team is loosing, she does’nt want to pisse Tina off so she says nothing and does not dare ask questions…to funy. Love this story
just glad there wasn’t any riots. brings back memories (good ones)..hehe…u r such a tease..hmmm..ever considered any other sports!…take care and post soon(“,)
It totally sucks when your team losses to your rival
The town I live in is called the City of Champions.We have a great girls basketball tean always have even when I was in School here. My youngest G/daughter Plays on the Soft ball team and soccerteam/ Guess Bette will learn about sports or she will be in trouble. She doesnt say anything afraid she will Piss Tina off.love that. Need to thke them to one more sport event Girls volley or basketball. I do have a nice family. A bunch of Hairy leg Men. thanks for posting.
why does tina take bette to see sportswhen the only thing she is interested in is the cheerleaders bad move tina.
k – i hurt myself with this chappy. i was roflmao. Tina needing a keeper at a game really did it for me. dayum girl you are funny. this was sweet also. thanks.
Tina is beginning to irritate me. She’s not THAT young and THAT immature. She’s a rising executive at Alphaville, yes? But it’s beginning to seem more like a fond forebearing mother (Bette) with her wayward charming child (Tina). Again the problem I see with B and T in Season One of Lword was the inequity in power and force of character and here it pops up again. If the relationship is to be meaningful it needs to be equal, be it gay or straight. Otherwise where’s the growth?
You made an excellent point in the story when the man mentioned that all the good players from Ca. (and elsewhere, really) go to Duke. Tina is certainly welcome to sit with us at the Duke women’s bb games and Bette would be a nice distraction, also!! I would be glad to help keep her entertained. She would be very disappointed in the Duke cheerleaders, though. We call them the Duke Dogs.
Good chapter. Bette is funny when she went to see sport, happpy when Tina’s team win, scare when Tina’s team lose. Ok post soon please, thanks!
I’m catching up…next
All caught up finally. Amazing story you’ve got going on. Bette reminds me so much of myself when it comes to sports. lol
I’m like Tina, yelling and screaming; well, only at Football games, not a big Basketball fan. I love Bette’s equation: USC=good, Everyone else=bad. UCLA = especially bad. Football=good, basketball=not so good. I like it when you have Bette learning about love. Would love to see Tina’s POV; like Bette taking her a lecture or something. Thanks for sharing your story.
luved it luved it pancha!!
it was funny. You got me more interested in sports. Let’s see the next game!
Tina remember me those soccer fans here in Brazil that even cry when their theam lose..lol..Bette going to games..thats really love..lol..great as always P thanks :o)
Maybe Bette (after much research) should get them some tickets to the women basketball game. USC would have a better chance of winning(in fact they would probably win) and she would have a happier T, and of course be able to play a little T-ball at home after the game :o)
WILT THE STILT. DR J. SIR CHARLES. WORLD B. FREE. MOSES MALONE… SONNY JURGENSON. DICK VERMEIL. REGGIE WHITE. Were the Porters under a rock? I’m just sayin…
So…I guess Melvin was not an Eagles or Sixers fan…
juz caught up. you’re real good…!! juz love this couple!
you’ve done a great job capturing what it is to be a real sports fan. I feel Tina’s pain-it sucks when you’re team loses a totally winnable game. I’m a Tennessee fan and that has been our entire football season. This is a great story and another great chapter. Keep ’em coming.
