2. A woman abandoned during the hockey play-off season due to pro-longed overtimes and games that end at 3 am.
3. An obsessive fan who ignores their spouse in favour of their preferred spectator sport. Maybe applied to any any sport, but extreme caution should be paid if one becomes a Cricket, Bowling, or NASCAR widow.
