Yep It Did

So KU beat UNC Saturday night (84-66) and I was right -- the town exploded! We went outside after The Big Win because Caleb & Amanda wanted to see the reaction. There were a few thousand in the field house watching the game and as we stood outside we could hear this dull roar starting up all over! From the field house to the dorms on the hill...

KU!

Rock Chalk KU!

It was fun to see and hear. Pete ran to the car to get my jacket and he said some random guy ran by and gave him a High-Five. The cars were every where and honking their horns. Pete said as we were driving back to the hotel that he couldn't tell if he was doing something wrong or not because there were horns honking all over the place.

Go here to read Caleb's article about the clean-up.

And these are some photos of the celebration after the win.

But all-in-all those KU fans were not unruly. I don't think there was any major damage done -- except to the tulips that were coming up in the planters along Massachusetts Street. We saw on TV from the hotel that there were wall-to-wall people along Mass St. It was probably in about a 5-6 block area. It was amazing. Caleb said that one of his friends counted that she got something like 174 High-Fives!

The funny thing is that we SAW Caleb & Amanda on TV when they were showing the Mass St. celebration. They just happened to walk by a camera and Caleb looked at it and yelled! It was so funny. We had spent an hour that morning watching The Early Show trying to see Megan. She was in New York City and they were outside the CBS studios. So we knew Megan would be there and never saw her, but we didn't know Caleb was on Mass St. and we saw him... Go figure.

And tonight is the final game against Memphis. Get ready Lawrence!
