Everything cool with Big Red?

What happened to 8893? Did Phil Knight's book peddling goons get to him?

We should create a thread about that, see if he shows.

I hope he’s ok. I saw him recently at the 2nd game of the season against Boston U, seated a couple seats away, and he was using oxygen.

Big Red is alive and well and has even posted in this thread

Red cannot be bothered with cupcake games that we win by 25.

I’ve seen him at the last few home games at XL and from my seats and it looks like he enjoying the games like the rest of us. I think he’ll come to life when the BE starts! Let’s go Huskies!

I saw him lying on a beach in Hawaii after PKI little worried about lava flow

was gonna say maybe they're both in antarctica

True story.

I texted, "Bon voyage mañana" to a friend whose cruise to Antarctica was scheduled for Tuesday departure and got a quick reply:

Big Red is still a big fan and will still be cheering. There just no nee at the point on the games they had at home. The reason for the post is that I will never put down a team who is getting beat badly when I know that they (visiting teams) are trying there best. But there are times when out of respect for what the Huskies accomplish we should honor their hard work so as fans we do the U-C-O-N-N, UCONN UCONN UCONN so I just hope that the cheer stays alive for as long as I can

Thanks for doing what you do!

Well, there you go. I'm happy that all is well with UConn's #1 fan, all appears to be well on The Boneyard, nobody messed with me too much a la my inquisitive post, and most of all I am happy that we, UConn Nation, are in for a terrific thrill ride for the next few months alongside the most talented and complete team that we have had in years.

Props to Danny Hurley and the coaching staff, and all the players. Looking to win it all baby, Bleed Blue!
