1st trip to the Yum: 43 years a fan.....

[Louisville JD]

that's' right .....for the Cuse game on Sunday with my 24 year old son who's been a fan since the "Pittsnogle" elite 8 game with WVU in 2005. Both my boys....10 and 12 at the time were balling their eyes out at halftime after the hoopies shot the eyes out of the hoop, but I told them with best straight face I could muster that the 4,000' altitude of Albuquerque and Beilein's short bench was going to put some damage to those shots and Cards tenacious full court press would exhaust them with the Cards come storming back! You know the rest and they're UofL fans ever since despite going to Pitt. We've seen the Cards win at the Pete including front row under the hoop for the 55 point blitzkrieg in January, Wayne's 1st game in Morgantown and Dejuan's game winning runner vs #3 New Mexico in 97 at the civic arena. Now I've been a fan since 74 with Junior Bridgeman and Wesley Cox and that awesome OT game vs Denny's mentor.....best game ever played behind the 2013 title game in my mind, but I've never made the trip until now! WHAS am with Van Vance , RAMSEY & RUTHERFORD, Drew, Marques, and Mark Ennis on the Twitter feed through the years keeps me close.
Anyways Jordan and I will be up in sec. 320 loving every 2nd of the win over the Cuse by 10+.... That's what we do to the Cuse! By the way we're 4-0 watching the Cards in person.....and that's going to 5-0 Sunday afternoon.
We're staying in the Mariott 2 blocks away. Any suggestions for dinner and watching UCLA vs Zona at 8 is appreciated. Also pregame drink site?. L1C4...

Love all of this. I'd suggest BBC (ate there today,) Bearno's, or Doc Crowes. Brisket tacos! Have fun!

Hope you all have a great time watching the Cards deliver "your" 5th in a row victory.

I agree with Doc Crows, but If you like pizza-Bearnos.

Go Cards, Go ACC

I hope you have a blast! You gotta check out Champions Sports Bar! It's the best! Some of the players will come out of the tunnel after the game for autographs if you want them. Also, if you are upper level, you might want to get there a little early, that escalator that takes you upstairs can get crowded.

You're going to be impressed. I attend about five men's and two to three women's games a year - every time I walk in the building I am thrilled with the venue and still cannot believe it's the Cards home. It's a fabulous arena.

 

[MDCardsFan]

It's the BEST looking arena in college basketball bar none, enjoy it you all will have a blast!

Doc Crowes was awesome. The brisket tacos and bourbon drinks watching UCLA vs. Zona was a good time. Thanks for the recommendation. Let's get the W. It will make our trip back to Pittsburgh shorter and happier. Go Cards
