Oh my holy goodness! I shook Coach Kruger's hand last night! The Rebels beat San Diego State 76 to 66. And as I was walking out of the west tunnel after the game Coach Kruger was walking back in from the locker room. I saw him coming and realized who it was and got really excited, as he passed I said "Good game Coach" and he said "Thanks" and reached out and shook my hand! So Excited! I wanted to say, "Did you know I have a Basket Ball signed by you, and it is one of my most prized possessions? I LOVE you!" But I didn't want to scare him. And the game was amazing for so many other reasons!
First, I sat next to Seat Williams who is a commentator for ESPN (for real, not joking) and he talked me through the whole game. I thought I knew a lot about basketball, but this was something else. I think he might have been the guy that sat behind me at the Louisville game...I think.
Second, my seating arrangement got even better because I didn't have our season tickets for that game, my Dad gave them to a customer, so I just bought a cheep ticket, then made my way down to where our seats are because I know people around us and was praying that someone would have an extra seat and they did! So I got to sit the row in front of our season tickets. Oh the joys.
Next, there was a green man at the game. And by green, I do mean GREEN. He was wearing a green spandex suit that covered him from head to toe. Pictures to follow.
Finally, after a close and well fought game the Rebels came out on top. Happy Day.
But shaking Coach Kruger's hand was still the best part of the night. (possibly the entire month.)
