Just ask Burrillville High School, who learned the hard life lesson that you don’t celebrate until you’ve actually won something. The Broncos thought they had won a Rhode Island state championship in basketball, and one BHS player celebrated in kind. The only problem, of course, was that time hadn’t actually expired.
