    Boston Thursday Roll Call

    Did anyone try to join the SDSU "Aztec" club at the minimum donation and buy tickets through them? We got our tickets to Worcester that way via UCF in 2005 at face price (I think it was $50 donation, bought 4 seats, did not turn our great).

    2023 bracket screw job

    LOL, I've got one for you, my cousin (who I am very close with, we both swam in college, me at UConn) grew up/lives in San Diego, Yale undergrad, Northwestern medical school. She rooted hard for the Huskies in the natty last year because she's not a fan of SDSU (practices at UCSD hospital). And...

    Foreshadowing Sunday

    Still listed as 7:30, moved over to Tru channel. I realized that DirectTV is AT&T , a big sponsor, hence the probable reason why they were accurate with the early announcement of the tip off time.

    mad dog goes off

    I can't believe the Yarders dont remember that Fatscesa spent the better part of the 90's eviscerating Calhoun for "never being able to get his talented teams over the hump to the Final Four/Natty," then got out the knee pads for JC on March 30, 1999. Mikes Zaun should have parodied that.

    mad dog goes off

    One of my neighbors (who will remain nameless) was a writer on the Imus show. He said he really couldn't stand either of them, but Russo was bearable . . .

    Piss bottles

    Here's an idea, would have garnered a lot of votes if it was a third choice, remove label, replace with choice of Syracuse/Duke/BC sticker :p As a PS, after I had a short hospital stay, I went to Wal-Mart and bought a medical-style pee jug, excellent $6 investment!

    Don't hold your breath unless your donation had six figures in it (not including those right of the decimal point) :p

    Madison Square Garden

    Best Bad News Barnes story . . . "Barnes once refused to board a plane from Louisville to St. Louis. Because the flight was scheduled to arrive (Central Time) before its departure time (Eastern Time), Barnes famously said, "I ain't getting in no damn time machine." He rented a car instead."

    BE tourney tickets....

    ealry 1990's, my buddy and I left an JGB MSG show via the firestairs (the spot to smoke during hockey or basketball games). About half-way down, there was a door, we open it up and find ourselves in a large room with elephants. At least the circus was in town, it wasn't our headful...

    keep your eyes open via Ticketbastard.com today, they may drop some tickets that were returned by schools (I can't imagine DePaul sold their entire allotment). My not be cheaper than buying only the sessions you need on the secondary market, but if you are committed to all three/four days in...

    Musical Acts At UConn

    Pretty sure it was Spring weekend '84 because of who I was with and where I was living. could have been more than 1 opener? Or the fun guy?

    Best way to get to JFK?

    Pretty sure that was Connecticut Limo, they had a terminal in Norwalk off Exit 15 where the SoNo collection is now. Think they went belly up, but was pretty expensive, and could have long waits if you weren't arriving at a peak hour, plus forced you to leave way way too early for departures.

    Musical Acts At UConn

    I remember that Ramones Spring Weekend show in 1984 for 2 reasons - a couple of my housemates ate too many mushrooms, forgot about the show and, and climbed the towers (not an urban legend) instead. Also, the opening act was a reggae band out of DC "Black Sheep." They were awesome, supposed...

    Legendary Music Venues in New Haven

    I was at the George Clinton show at Tuxedo, my buddy Sean was booking there at the time. Best Tuxedo memory was Karl Densons Tiny Universe during a snowstorm, the drive up and back from Norwalk too forever both ways, more members of the band and crew than attendees, one of the best shows ever!

    Legendary Music Venues in New Haven

    Pretty sure the only music at the Keg Dive was a lousy jukebox. 18 drinking age definitely made life more interesting (and dangerous). I had SCSC buddies (before it was SCSU) who started hanging out at Montego Bay, not exactly the spot for caucasian guys, I suspect they were chasing another...

    Arizona in the Final Four in Phoenix.

    Arizona is in Tuscon, about an hour and a half away. ASU is in Tempe, in the Phoenix area. I remember vs MSU in 09, we sold our finals tickets to Sparty fans and got out of the hell hole that's Detroit early. If somehow Arizona makes the Final Four it may help, puts less pressure on demand...

    Best way to get to JFK?

    Public transportation to JFK from CT su*cks. At least long-term parking has the Air Train to take you to the terminals (way better than shuttle busses), and exiting is easy becuase they put the parking charges on your EZ-Pass. Ive heard horror stories about some of the off-site parking options...

    You know what’s cool about older famous athletes?

    I was given this photograph by an old-timer I met in the pool at gym. Stamford's finest He also told me a story about how Jackie integrated Rockrimmon Country Club in Stamford, but that's for another day.

    You know what’s cool about older famous athletes?

    When I started wearing glasses (4th grade-ish, early 1970's) I used to get them at an optician in Port Chester. They had a waiting area, separated from the "fitting area" by a half height kneewall. One day my father, who grew up in Brooklyn a huge Dodger fan (never set foot in original Yankee...
