The Oracle Arena is used to housing rabid and raucous fans, but even the Golden State Warriors' home arena may not have been prepared for such an overload of Bay Area pride on Saturday night.
With Bay Area native and super middleweight world champion Andre Ward set to meet Liverpool's Paul Smith, who else would Ward have carry his belt to the ring than Stephen Curry, the NBA MVP fresh off of the Warriors' first title in 40 years.
No one would blame Curry if he hasn't taken off that NBA Finals hat since the Dubs clinched on Tuesday night.
