And They're Off... To Spokane

As info, in another video, Azzi is wearing a boot on her left foot. She is obviously walking normally and smiling, so until we hear otherwise, let’s all assume that it’s just precautionary.

RIP people using headphones.

When I see things like this I always remember a DT sit down at ESPN when she admitted it was hard to pay for anything in Connecticut and pretty incredulously said "They treat us like rock stars." Then I think Tennessee fans are going to be sick over this.

Are they flying or is it only accessible by dog sled?

I love headphones.

We will be there too. I am extra excited for a few personal reasons. 1) it's going to be our daughter's first UConn game, 2) the Huskies are here in the NW, where we live, 3) my wife is a Sooner.

Does it get any better than that???

Well I can think of a few things that would make the weekend even better ….

Spokane gets less than half the amount of snow that Connecticut does. And its overall precipitation is far less than we get in Connecticut.

For those concerned about Azzi wearing a walking boot on her left foot when UConn departed Storrs for Spokane, you will note Azzi practicing with the team in the attached photos. All is well.

Mostly about it being remote, alluding back to GA's jokes.

Spokane is lovely in the spring. Here's a pic of the team at the riverfront park I saw on another site.

Hopefully not for your wife, sorry.

Lighter UConn turnout than I am used to seeing when traveling for games. Additionally 33-40 percent of the "UConn turnout" seemed to be shrieking Paige fans that couldn't name a third player on the team. (Other than Paige and "Ozzy."). Couldn't even get a U C O N N going after an OU timeout. Too bad, there was some great UConn basketball on display. But also I get it - Spokane is not a hub, and too small a city to swallow eight fan bases. Hotel prices were bonkers as a result.
