New Canaan is a town in which normal people find it hard to fit in and rich people feel like they run the town. So if you wear a flat brim hat, air jordan's or wear a jersey ur considered a "poser" or "fag." Also, if you don't play lacrosse you are not allowed in the group and are completely uncool for your dad not being an all american at virginia. Dad's who made it in sports as youth's outpay the normal family's and make there child on the team and when the time is right they pounce on the original payed coach and have him fired so they can again shine in the youth athletic spotlight. So most of the time the kids on the travel teams don't really have the most talent but there dad's have the most money along with an ego. Kids typically have to wait until high school to have the best players on there team. And then of course the town wins three state championship's in a row.
All the stuff about kids being afraid of Bridgeport is only true for a handful of kids and yes the cops are way to overprotective and kids do sell drugs according to many residents. But don't hide the few good people who live in that town. Like Benko. He runs the whole recreational department by runnning back in forth from schools to parks to fields to town hall every day. And guess what he isn't paod a million dollars a year and he doesn't complain he just keeps on working and appreaciates that his kids get to grow up in such a good enviorment. The town is probably filled up with a third of people like this who keep it from falling into the OC. But don't make fun of the town because not everyone is that bad
"Oh look at that kids flat brim yankee hat, he must thnik he is a gangster"..... The kid in hat," Uh no..I'm not a gangster I live in New Canaan... I just am wearing my hat the way people through out the world do"
