On a weeknight in April 2018, Jenny Nguyen went to a sports bar with friends to watch Notre Dame play Mississippi State in the final game of that season's NCAA women's basketball tournament. It was the only championship game being aired that night, but none of the 32 screens in the bar was showing it. Nguyen's sizable group asked to see it and were given one TV in the back of the bar. They ordered food, drank beers and witnessed one of the greatest finishes in NCAA history, with the team from Indiana hitting a last-second 3-pointer to clinch the title.
"I remember throwing my hat across the bar as we all screamed and lost it," Nguyen says. "That's when we realized no one else in the bar knew why we were cheering. We had watched the entire game with the sound turned off by the bar. We hadn't even questioned it."
