Water bottles are all the rage these days with the kiddos. I guess because they take them to school. We have 97 in the pantry and about 50 lids with only like 3-4 matching pairs.My daughter is now insisting on multiple active water bottles. It’s ridiculous.
- Verrrrry nervous about tomorrow’s ballgame. Good thing I’m watching it with the eternally calming AssistbyHawkins.
Old man went to the UK vs LSU game in February 90. Pitino’s Bombinos vs Chris Jackson, freshman Shaq and Stanley Roberts. LSU whipped the Cats earlier that year in Baton Rouge and from what I remember reading Pitino and Dale Brown basically squared off during a dead ball and almost came to fisticuffs. Something like Dale Brown shook his fist at one the Kentucky players and Pitino wasn’t having any of it so he charged that crazy sob.
He’s been to a bunch of big ones at Rupp but he swears up and down that’s the loudest the place has ever been from tipoff until the final horn and 24,000 plus stood the entire time. Cats won 100-95.
I guess part of it was Kentucky wasn’t on live tv that year due to probation but also the style of play with the Unforgettables running, pressing and shooting 3’s.
I remember listening to Cawood on the call on 840 WHAS and the crowd was so damn loud on the AM dial you could hardly hear Ralph Hacker on the color commentary( which may have been a blessing in disguise).
According our text thread he's already in form. Lol.
lol @ you I’ll be over here living my best life when the dark times come with my $130 water jug unlike you, a doomed foolI drink my water from a white 10 oz. styrofoam cup like a real man. If I need more, I throw the old cup away and get another. Bunch of millennial betas.
I'll second that, happened to be my first game at Rupp.- I’ll put Maryland December 1998 up against any of them.
I read a great interview from his dad. His dad was very complementary of UK and said they didn't think he would get the playing time next year that he wants so he went ahead and transferred. Pretty mature approach and I hope he lands with Sumrall's squad.Geiger looking at Tulane. He was playing here. Money I guess.
Also, don't pigeonhole yourself to just one career. Why just be a lawyer, accountant, or consultant when you can also be speaker, author, thought leader, and business coach?The biggest key to posting on LinkedIn is to express how humbled you are when boasting about any achievement, no matter how minor.
I was one of them in there that night and i still say it was consistently the loudest Rupp has been for an entire game. Consistently being the key word in case anyone wants to argue the loudest. None were louder for longer.BBN was out for blood at Rupp for Kansas’s Dec 1990 return visit after the 55-point blowout. We ran those MFer out of the gym.
. All these hoes drinking out of Stanley straws are going to get wrinkles around their mouths.
Stay hydrated, Wildcat Friends.
I think you forgot libos put estrogen in drinking water to make everyone the gay.All this hydration pimping is a propaganda scheme by wokeback libtards to convince everyone how great water is and why drinking two 2-liters of Mountain Dew every day should be frowned upon for some reason (communism?) Just my opinion but I’ve done the research.
My wife, along with having multiple Stanley’s, also has a giant brewmate that looks like a handle of Don Julio 1942 except it’s rainbow colored, insists on taking it in the car everywhere, barely drinks from it, and it doesn’t fit in any cup holder and just causes constant arguments between us
All the girls at my work also have these giant 128oz jugs for water and hash marks with motivational sayings on them “Almost there - just 16 more ozs to drink!”. For water. Like WTF.
Sunny D was recommended for us as children, or kool aid, or Hi-C, CapriSun, basically anything but water.
For my money the best fast casual sandwich chain is PotBelly. Always consistent, and for someone that likes spice some of their offerings can bring some serious heat
I was at each of the 1989-90 LSU, 1990-91 Kansas and the 1998-99 Maryland games and I would rank them in terms of sustained crowd noise for an entire game as:
1) 1989-90 LSU
2) 1990-91 Kansas
3) 1998-99 Maryland
There just isn't anything comparable to the crowd noise in Rupp during Pitino's 1st 3 seasons. That's when I was a student and Pitino did a great job of immediately engaging the students and begging them to attend and make an impact.
The rest of the fans followed suit. It was the extremely rare case of UK fans accepting that we were underdogs while nobody resented the coach or players for that fact.
The two loudest crowds in person were LSU '90 and 2nd would be Kansas '91. Nothing else comes close but I wasn't at Maryland '99 or Florida Calathes game.
I think everybody knows the energy around a big game and sometimes its becomes so big you literally feel it when you walk into a place and I don't think I ever felt it stronger in my life than that LSU game. LSU even with Shaq, Chris Jackson, and Stanley Roberts never stood a chance.
Sometimes that energy goes the wrong way. I still think the Pitino going to UofL on the eve of our tournament game against USC and Chapman with his Cal to Lakers ******** before the 2014 championship game just put together negative vibes out there that kept us from winning.
Watching that Florida video, I remember thinking Cats had a good chance to make a run with that Brandon Knight team. They’d lost a lot of close ones on the road all year but kicked the **** out of a decent Florida team in the SEC tourney. We drew Ohio state and I had a feeling we’d knock them out, team was hitting on all cylinders.
I was still pretty young but I Remember feldaus trying to guard Shaq the game at LSU. That was unreal just how big and athletic young Shaq wasI remember my dad talking about that game. This memory may have gotten messed up over the years, but I recall hearing that fans were lined up waiting for the LSU bus to come to Rupp and were just going crazy on LSU. I miss that energy.
