Chief's Briefs - Special Edition & Request

[wethyhusky]

I've heard the name mentioned here before, but no idea who he is? Background on Bunkey?

It's Chief's nickname for his childhood blanket.

 

[Tommyboy]

Step out of your bubble - he may be boys with some of the players on the team, but nobody regards him in the light you do.

What if C-H-I-E-F really spelled Bunky?

Wow, Ogre. That's deep.

I don't even know if he was ever a UConn student. A friend of one of the players who is no longer with the team is all I have learned. Mr. Uconn, in Chief's world.

I do like the dude. What resume did Big Red have?

Or his pacifier

 

[Huskybass]

What do you call someone who's a fan boy of some guy who is friends with some college basketball players?

I don't think we've coined a term for something so obscure and pathetic. This is approaching restraining order level stuff though.



I second this idea. First Night is well known to be Chief's kinda thing. He's more of a casual fan.

leg humper?

Big Red rose organically out of the season ticket fanbase, leading cheers in his section for years before he became a "thing." I don't know if this Bunky guy ever went to a game without someone giving him a ticket.

Bunky is HFD?

 

[UconnBoston]

This is whole thing is getting bizarre. I can't tell who the joke is on.

 

[TRest]

Bunky is HFD?

That would be hilarious if true.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

This is whole thing is getting bizarre. I can't tell who the joke is on.

Unfortunately for Chief the joke is that someone who had to be well into his fifties (or older) is thrilled that a kid in his early twenties acknowledges him.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

We had a DJ at football games. That went well.

 

[Chief00]

Such a huge UConn fan he is:




What is your plan for him during UConn games that will be so entertaining? That truly awful thing you posted as "inspiration"?

Let Bunkey be Bunkey - He will do just fine - don't get in the way of a creative artist.

Why would he pay for a ticket if he could get one free? Give the guy a break!

 

[Chief00]

From the business side its critical that UConn athletics start appealing to a younger demographic. No disrespect but many of you older dudes will be retiring and moving South or even dying off.
Big Red can still do his thing but perhaps the younger crew may want their guy?

 

[Vancat]

Why don't you take a poll, Chief?

From the guy who hates everything about First Night. Can't make this up.

 

[Stainmaster]

On behalf of the younger demographic - we don't care about Bunkey. Not one iota.

If Chief wants to understand the younger demographic, he should actually get to know them instead of making up pretend connections to them.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Granted Chief is a psycho and part of the fun is that he takes himself so seriously while saying asinine things, but even for him this is getting a little sad. I don't know if Bunky said hi to him when he was creepily lingering around the players or what but it's past the point of pathetic.

 

[David 76]

No disrespect taken. Just a question, do we get to choose between moving south or dying off?

Good friendships are only pathetic to envious, jealous people who have none.

Why don't you take a poll, Chief?

Not with this backward group.
