Good post for the most part, but Rupp Arena isn't on campus at the University of Kentucky. It's actually adjacent to, and essentially in the same building as the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Lexington and a goodly drive from UK's campus.

Well, I was 11 years old. All I remember is it falling during the great blizzard, and us riding a bus from a hotel to Rupp every day. It was way too cold to go see the campus, and I just thought it was on campus.

Wow! That was twenty years ago! Good memory!

It was a great time. My little sister ended up not wanting to go, so we took my best friend instead. We got back to south Alabama and all our friends were telling us we missed the snow. I think they got a few inches, maybe. There were feet of snow in Kentucky that weekend. We actually couldn't fly out on time, and almost missed our connection in Atlanta. Actually I think we did but there was one more flight going back to Dothan that night and they had room for us.
