Watched it in the kitchen of professor Roger Parr's house with a few alums. Then drove to the Avalanche and got hammered

I was in the stands at the Omni in Atlanta taking in all sights and sounds which I still remember vividly (which is hard given all the celebrating at Underground Atlanta in the wee hours of the morning following the game and ceremonies...!).

In my living room with my wife from Mt. Mary (had Bo Ellis in her fashion design class) and another recent MU alum dancing on our coffee table!

Where you had to listen stories about his son Steve Parr, the soap opera star?

Junior year in HS.  Working at a grocery store, listening to the game on the radio.

Skipped school the next day, went to MU campus and attended the rally and parade.  Screamed for Al to come out of TWC for the rally.  We were sure he was in there, and if we screamed enough, he'd come out.  Shook hands with Craig Butrym during the parade.   My college decision was 75% made right there.

At the Omni witnessing the game "live" as a member of the MU band.  After as I was leaving the building someone offered me $25 for my "Give Em Hell Al" t-shirt which I gladly stripped off because I needed the $$$ for more beer.  Thought I could get another similar t-shirt easy-wrong!  Needless to say my GPA that semester took a major nosedive.

In Buzz fashion...

I was celebrating my 684th day of life!

Not even a glint in my father's eye. Mom and Dad were dating, possibly engaged by then, married in April of '78, I was born in June of '84.

Ringout---Isn't it amazing how college decisions were made back then? Still believe MU ball being good is the best advertising the school can do. My MU decision was made probably when I was in 2nd or 3rd grade. My decision was 100% based off Al and the gang.


Hopefully there are a bunch of kids deciding schools this week around the country and they like what Mu represents.

Growing up in Connecticut, the only reason I knew of Marquette and decided to consider the school was because I heard of their basketball team.  I ultimely chose it over UConn.  My family liked it so much that my brother followed me to Marquette.

In the lounge of the grad student residence at my law school.  Two of us who were MU grads and one who was from Milwaukee were given front-row seats.

Also in the stands at the Omni with a group of fellow MU seniors. Still the greatest sports highlight of my life and best Marquette memory.

Like a lot of other New Yorkers, the only reason I was even aware of MU was because of Al & basketball. First Marquette game I saw was vs. Pistol Pete & LSU in the 1970 NIT as a high school freshman.

I was a junior at the Mug Rack that night in the old student union, along with hundreds and hundreds of other crazies.

My love for Marquette basketball long pre-dated that night, but the events of the evening, the race to the lake and the ensuing all-night partying made Marquette something special for me. I'll never forget it and pray that we will have another day in the years to come like that one.

Al was a genius the way he out-coached Dean Smith that night. Dean Smith was probably as great a coach as there ever will be in the NCAA and he did not often get out-coached by anyone. But that night... Al was at his very best.

Thanks for everything Al! We'll never forget you!
