Okay--so I am a HUGE Butler Basketball fan. It's hard not to be when you actually went to school there (Ooohh all these people jumping on the bandwagon---I guess it's good for business but super annoying for those of us who have been here all along. Growl.) If you really want to learn a TON about my dear old alma mater--check out George Waller's book. It's a tome for sure, but jam packed of fun Butler tidbits.
Needless to say--this has been a crazy exciting past few days. And yes--I would sell my soul for some tickets, but I will make do with watching on TV. (This way there is no way that I can make a total fool of myself in public either screaming like a banshee or crying like a big fat baby.) And watching on TV means I can have beer. Which is good. And probably some chicken wings. This, buddies, is even better. (Time to splurge...seriously, how many times does YOUR team make it to the Final Four??? I think I should do what I can to enjoy this.)
However, depending on how the game goes, I may have to switch to something stronger to keep me going. We shall see. And if they win? Well--I will be running around downtown Indy like a crazy person. And thankfully, I won't be the only one!
There is going to be a pep rally downtown on the circle tomorrow at noon (sniff...I can't go), so if you are downtown--check it out! I'm sure it will be a good time. There will also be a practice session at Lucas on Friday from noon to 12:50 pm (again--can't go) if you are lucky enough to be downtown and free from work this upcoming Good Friday. Not me...sigh.
So I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the boys in Blue playing on their home court (well--sort of) Saturday at 6:07 pm. CBS. Watch it. I will know if you don't. And I will find you. Especially if they lose. It will be all your fault.
Im excited too. Rudy is gonna try to get out of work so we can go watch them.
