November 21, 20169 yr Was a while ago. Don't remember when. Other that bad seats nothing stands out. I have seen the Cats play in several regionals, a few of the Indy series and 2 final fours.
November 21, 20169 yr Mine was quite a while ago. Tonight is my first one with the new audio and video displays. Looks sharp, i feel like Rupp looks way better.
November 21, 20169 yr 1980 UKIT. Kentucky beat California the 1st night, and then beat the Joe Barry Carroll led Purdue Boilermakers in the championship game. This was Bowie's freshman year.
November 21, 20169 yr December 30, 1967. Freedom Hall. UK 81 Notre Dame 73. Rip breaks record for most wins. Mike Casey scores 27 points. I was 8 years old.
November 21, 20169 yr New Years eve...1968 Kentucky vs. Wisconsin at Chicago Stadium. One of the coldest nights that I remember in Chicago. I believe UK was undefeated and ranked 1. Wisconsin took a big early lead and held on to upset Issel and Co. 69-65. I was heartbroken.
November 21, 20169 yr It was an Auburn game in the early 80's. Kentucky won easily is all I remember. I don't even remember who was on the team. I am not a huge fan though. I like them but also like X and UC the same

November 21, 20169 yr Wasn't Purdue coming off of a F4? They may have been. Not really sure. Their coach had Transy ties, but I can't remember his name right now.
November 21, 20169 yr Couldn't say; sometime in the mid 80's if I had to guess. A huge criteria whenever we are selling or giving away our tickets is whether we can send a kid to Rupp for the first time. I'm proud to say that 3 kids so far this season have or will experience their first UK basketball game.
November 21, 20169 yr They may have been. Not really sure. Their coach had Transy ties, but I can't remember his name right now. Just thought of it. Lee Rose.
November 21, 20169 yr Took my son to Indy to watch the Cats take on EKU in the 2005 NCAA tournament. Great experience!
