The Chicago Bulls have been home to many iconic players who helped shape the team’s legacy in the NBA. Among them was Bob Love, who spent nine remarkable seasons with the Bulls, leaving his unforgettable footmarks on the franchise.
After his playing days, Love continued to represent the team as an ambassador, serving in various roles and strengthening the bond between the organization and its fans. However, Bulls fans are mourning his loss as the legendary player passed away on Monday at the age of 81 after a long battle with cancer.

Love was one of the earliest stars for the Bulls after the team joined the NBA. In recognition of his tremendous contributions, the Bulls retired his No. 10 jersey, which now hangs proudly in the rafters of the United Center. Love is one of only four players in Bulls history to receive this honor.

A photo of a female hockey fan who was busting out of her jeans at a Leafs-Devils game in early 2024 has gone viral online again.
Said supporter was pictured in the stands wearing a Devils Jack Hughes jersey, but that was probably the least interesting thing about her as a lower body part caused her to trend on X.
A new set of photos of her showing her assets off has popped up online ahead of the weekend, with one of the accounts posting asking, “Are you a hockey fan?”
