Keeneland all day, NBA hoops all night - pretty good deal. And it's an open date for football.

Someone is hoping to prove a point about having the NBA in Kentucky, methinks.

OK--so now I HAVE to get Big Blue Madness tickets for my son and I so I can tag team this on top of it. What a great father-son weekend that would be.

Damn. I'll have to miss that one. Going to Nashville the next morning to watch my beloved 49ers play the Titans. Oh well. I'll choose a regular season NFL game over a preseason NBA game anytime.

The admin at UK is still working on their big project to bring back the "2 bits" cheer for the games.

Re: Pelicans Play Wizards in Rupp Oct. 19
We have an alumni game that sells the program and now a NBA game against #1 pick Wall against #1 pick Davis. Great event to hold over madness weekend with no football game home or away.
One drop back. Anyboyd here attend the 1989 Hornets game with Rex? For whatever reason that was one of the most boring games I have ever been to in person. I am sure with more UK players it will be different. But this is an NBA and not a UK event.
Over 20 years so the particulars have been lost on me but it left me with a negative feeling towards NBA exhibition games. I hope we gets fans to the game and I hope that we use it properly.

If they do not price the tickets out of the target market, they will draw a good crowd.

I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight.

Re: Pelicans Play Wizards in Rupp Oct. 19
Just checked Lexingtoncenter.com. Tickets will range from $10-$250, which IMO tells us less than nothing at this point. $250 is sky high but if it's for a seat on the bench that's fine. If' it's for the first 10 rows that's another matter. Maybe Cal can buy those and give them out to folks.
People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.
