I'd like to get a closer time-frame .. any ideas if the team is at the airport yet? 

I mean .. Unless they are closing the aircraft now, there's no way they are at the Al at 7pm.

[Eye]

Any shot this'll be streamed? I'm in La Crosse. Can't get there that fast.

Or if not, video after the fact would be fantastic.

[mu_hilltopper]

I'll have video.

[Eye]

Thanks much Hilltopper.

[mu_hilltopper]

We'll have a better time estimate.  JMac said he'd tweet when the plane is wheels up.

[mu_hilltopper]

Jmac says .. Plane should arrive at 7:25pm.   Unload, load the bus .. drive to Al. 

Team should arrive right around 8pm.

Spring break?

Yup. Began on Friday. Dorms closed today at 11:00 AM. Almost everyone is out of campus.

[Blackhat]

Is this like an email campaign?

[mu_hilltopper]

Yeah .. trying to get Scoop to email a message to its 8000 members to meet the team.  If we could get 2% of that to show up ..

[Blackhat]

Wish I could make it. If you're in milw u need to get off your bum and get down there!

[Chicos' Buzz Scandal Countdown]

I'll be there

[Lennys Tap]

Wish I could drive up from Chicago - give 'em a big Scoop welcome home, well done!

If this really is the flight, looks like they touch down at 7:54.... thatd put them at the Al by 845 probably?

I do not know this... just asking? If nobody knows I'll just get there early to be safe

[mu_hilltopper]

Well .. either that's their flight, or it's just not listed. 

JMac said they left around 5:45 (CST) ..he said it was "100 minutes" but it's more like a 2hr+30 min flight .. that lands them at 8:00 .. pretty close to that flight tracker.   

8:30 at the Al, then?

MU just tweeted this:

Thanks - I'll be there quarter to 8

[mu_hilltopper]

I'll have on a blue/white winter jacket, blue baseball hat with a Warrior on it if Scoopers want to meet up.

[mu_hilltopper]

8,000 emails going out now.   Hope the interwebs can handle it.

[warriorstrack]

Wife and I will be there, see you at the Al

[Chicos' Buzz Scandal Countdown]

I'm sporting the yellow/blue plaid sport jacket and tigers hat.
