Message: [QUOTE="MSGRET, post: 4507144, member: 8506"] I was stationed in the Netherlands and AFN TV was carrying the 95 Women's Championship game. I decided to watch it since I had the following day off. I believe that it started around 10:00 PM local time. This was the first time watching women's game and I became a fan of UConn and the women's game. When I played basketball in the 60's and 70's it was below the rim and was more team play then individual play. The men's game had kinda turned me off so I was happy to see the UConn women play more of the style I grew up with. I would watch UConn when they were on ESPN when I could, when they moved to AAC I was able to watch almost every game because they were either on ESPN or ESPN3. I became a diehard fan during the Stewie years and saw my first live game in NOV 2017 in Reno, an 8 hour drive from Vegas. I was very upset that KLS was not able to play, but watching UConn in person was a great experience. I met a couple from Connecticut at the hotel, Bob and his wife, whose name has slipped my mind. I drove them to the game and we had dinner after it. At dinner we discussed UConn and Bob had asked me if I knew about the Boneyard, I asked what that was and he told me, said that it's easy to check and if I liked it I could join. When I got back to Vegas I checked it out and soon afterwards I became a boneyarder. [/QUOTE]
