I started watching UCONN during the 1990-1991 season that led to the Final 4.
I watched off and on till 1994-1995 and have been hooked since then!
My buddy and I got season tickets for the 1997-1998 season.
We would get tickets to Big East Tournament and the NCAA Tournament and drive to BE then 1st & 2nd rounds, Sweet 16's, Elite 8's and the Final 4's, sometimes driving 3,500 to 4,000 miles to see our Huskies!
We even made the cover off the New London Day newspaper when UCONN lost to ND in the Semi's of the 2001 FF in an picture & article by Mike DiMauro!
As we got OLD the cost of tickets meals out, gas, hotels, parking, etc. were too much on retirement money and just too old to make trips even to Storrs & Hartford, we both gave up the tickets but still watch and follow the team!
My buddy and I have met some truly wonderful people through the UCONN Wbb games that have been like family still all these years!
The BY has been very important to me with my MANY health issues especially the last 9 years!
