As the rapid spread of COVID-19 rages on, America’s cultural rituals and traditions like hugs, high fives among teammates, and packed arenas are becoming more of a distant memory

expected this year’s spectacle in Las Vegas to top that. “That’s what I’ll miss, seeing the fans’ excitement, and at times disappointment and/or shock,”, anchor of ESPN’s draft coverage, told me. “That kind of juice is what makes the draft every year.”Saturday that he hopes to have sports fans back in arenas by August, the same month he’ll take the stage at the Republican National Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The anticipation for this year’s NFL Draft, scheduled from April 23-25, could be even greater than usual, given that fans have been resigned to watching replays of old games since the major sports leagues suspended play in mid-March. A spokesman for the NFL told me that the league is “still knee-deep in the planning stages of what this year’s draft will look like,” but Wingo said his own preparation for the draft “has not changed at all,” even if the picks will be presented in a different way.

It has never felt so strange to see two people hug, a vestige of an era that ended way back in the bygone days of three weeks ago, a now-forbidden gesture more likely to evoke a wince than any feelings of warmth. Two characters embracing in a movie, a video clip of teammates clutching each other in triumph, a wedding photo showing a radiant couple—it’s all suddenly, weirdly, dated.

That point was crystallized as I read this past weekend about a 51-year-old woman in my South Dakota hometown who died suddenly from the coronavirus. Her family is now left to grieve in isolation, and wait for a less precarious time to hold a memorial service.
