Remember that amped up UConn fan from Maui?

Nice - one mystery solved.

Now, who was MakersMuppet who posted that inspiring BET thread ?
 
I still think MakersMuppet just had to be Fishy, though I've seen him deny it.

Still such an epic post in Boneyard lore.
 
There was one fan in particular that really stood out last night. HUGE UPS to the kid standing right behind the basket basically single-handedly leading the entire student section wearing the white uconn jersey (number escapes me) and the white headband. He was dubbed headband kid but is worthy of more praise than such a title.
 
Skinner is the man. He willed the practice facility to get fast tracked after collecting dust under hathaways watch.

He's a baller...lives in Cali... friends with Matthew Lillard (the guy from scream, etc) and he's a UConn Foundation board of directors member and (I believe) chaired the UConn practice facility project.

Who's his friend on the right of the photo? He's also sporting a ring...
 
Are you telling me that the amped up dude at Maui, the dude who bought out Ted's last night, and MakersMuppet are the same guy?

Is this him too?

Because if it is, this guy is a legend.

I think it's actually the guy in the blue shirt that your circled over, not the one you circled. But yes, he's at most of the big games.

There are some spectacular faces in that crowd though, particularly the black guy holding the child on the far right.

The best face is McGhee's. It's like, "Oh , I up."
 
Man, I had an idea as to MM's real identity on the old Scout board but he went and changed his name. He never posted on the BB board anyway; he's a football guy.

It's better left as a mystery, anyway.
 
Although he asked not to have his name given up - he and his friends were a huge part of us making our 25k commitment to the heart pumping life saving device of awesomeness we donated for JC's retirement last year.

That's Skinner's friend. Had the pleasure of spending time with the two of them at dinner after the Arizona game in Anaheim in 2011. Both good dudes and GIGANTIC fans of UConn basketball.

While it's much appreciated he participated with us, why bring his name up? I'm just curious - all good either way.
