Two screens at game time
Zoom memorial service
And UConn-Creighton

I'll wear my hoodie
As did for Zoom funeral
Deceased was big fan

In his death notice
Donations were directed
To Husky sports fund

Am I blasphemous?
To those I won't tell? Likely
But he would approve

Favorite uncle
Last of his generation
Loved me since my birth

Yes, it was COVID
With no personal visits
For fam'ly goodbyes

Big East re-debut
Top team, 'Midwest division'
Crate 'n barrel 'em
 
.-.
.-.
What were they doing?
Told “ other important things”
We’re talking’ bout practice!

Appreciated
He can root now with my dad
If it works that way

To make line 3 compliant,
Please drop "we're" or "'bout."

Re the first hiaku:
Magical Mystery Tour
ref-er-ence noted

Instead of hoodie,
To respect the occasion
A fresh, clean sweatshirt
 
Condolences, Hans
Gretchen goes to Nebraska
Creighton travels East
