Damn, Just Knocked Over Al
« on: February 18, 2010, 04:00:25 PM »
Four hours before game time and I knock over my beloved Al McGuire figurine from my desk. Both hands snapped off. Hopefully there's someone out there who says it's good luck.  Maybe the Chinese.

That makes three busted and superglued figurines/bobbleheads on the desk.  >:(

That's what you get for working.


I say it's good luck.  Now his hands have been surgincally repaired and are stronger and the leftover superglue implies we will get more rebounds.

I woke up one morning this fall and found mine on the floor so I must have knocked it over the night before.  The next day I went home for Thanksgiving and we beat Xavier and Michigan.  So I'll say its good luck.

I have seen one Al statue with both hands still intact.  The number of statues with missing hands is too large to count.  Buy American.
