Pregame

[Soft Taco Wallace]

Could there have been a worse pregame than the one today? The 'tards started the "Bring On the Cats" chant and music with like 8 minutes until tip and the team didn't come out until like 4 minutes. Then to make matters worse, they didn't have the video camera in the tunnel with all the players coming out. Worst of all, they had absolutely no highlight videos prior to the starting lineups or tipoff. Overall, just a sh*t production from whoever is in charge of pregame.

Heard the students were embarrassing.

Heard the students were embarrassing.

The student attendance was actually pretty solid, probably because of the uk line up stuff.  And all the freshmen got solid cheers when they entered the game for the first time, and that was cool.

But yeah, the noise died down pretty quick.  Everybody seemed tired and hungover from yesterday. I know I was

on top of the pregame sucking incredibly, apparently corn prices went up cause the $3 popcorn is now $4.  it's still a better buy than the $2 popcorn (which is now the $3 popcorn) but kind of threw me for a loop.

popcorn @ that size is a complete steal @ 4 bucks. Great choice for the wife and kids.

I didn't get to the game until after tip.  Was busy throwing some rat poison under my house, completely forgot there was a game today TBH.

had to run like a mf'er, I want a good seat for the ku game

Umm... they don't do any of that for exhib games, never have and never will. They save all that for the real games. Trust me, it will all be normal stuff on Friday.

Good to hear from an insider.

I've been singing this tune for 3 years.  Whoever is in charge of the gameday production is a f*ing amateur.

The "normal stuff" sucks too.  With exception to the pregame video.  Other than that, the rest of the production sucks.  Kiss Cam.  Case closed.

At one point Clemente had to look at the student section and yell, "Lets Go!"

Can we still call the big one the $3 popcorn?  I know that if I told fellow 17ers that I'm making a run and Daris asked me to grab him some $3 corn, I'd be bringing him back the big one, regardless of current price.  I'd expect the same.

[Pett]

I agree with the "bring on the cats" chant too. Very awkward and almost every student kept clapping, I just stopped because my hands were beginning to hurt.

Guarantee I hear that bring on the cats song in my head though tonight in my sleep.

  we were up by like 80,000. but what really pisses me off is they haven't updated the NIT Tournament Appearances banner thingy. i want to be validated for last season.

Stories like these make me wish I was a 17er.

Maybe they'll drop a curtain at halftime of the game on Friday revealing a freshly painted 09.

I would think this is a good thing, to me this shows dedication.

womens ncaa wasn't updated either.  didn't seem like the athletic dept was ready for bball yet.  though i'll give the band some credit, pretty sure that was the first time they were there for an exhibition.

We should whitewash over all the womens crap and just slap up decals of the KatPak headcover and nacho cheese.

lollerz, that would be amazing
