Bulls Championship Banners Damaged at Concert

The Chicago Bulls' six NBA championship banners, representing their two three-peats led by Michael Jordan, were damaged during a Disturbed concert at the United Center. Pyrotechnics from the concert caused minor warping to the bottom of each banner, necessitating their removal for repairs for the rest of the season. The United Center and the Bulls are collaborating on repair options, with expectations for the banners to be reinstated by the next season. Other banners in the arena, including those for division and conference titles, remain undamaged. The damage coincides with the Bulls' current effort to secure a play-in tournament spot in the Eastern Conference, amid a winning streak. Despite the setback, the Bulls continue to hold a notable historical position in the NBA with their 1990s dynasty.
