You did it better than we did, congrats!  Hope the Ws keep coming for you.

Was fortunate enough to see him perform at the 100th anniversary of the overthrow of the monarchy. We were given lots of side eye being haole in an almost exclusive Hawaiian crowd.

Why were you being an a hole?

Anyone have a list of these?  The site now just says walk ins welcome but no events listed.  Thanks!

[Superfan]

For those of us not fortunate enough to make it Honolulu, very bummed to learn that Bill Walton will be announcing the game on ESPN2.  He’s the only guy that has the ability to destroy a good BBall game.

Arrived today with the Purdue basketball team on UA 219 from Chicago.  Was shocked to see Zack Edey heading to Economy...but fortunately for him he got the first row in a section...now way he fits if someone was in front of him.  His head almost touched the ceiling in baggage claim.

Turn volume down and listen to Homer when you don't like announcer.

I don't mind Walton because he likes MU. He named his son after Maurice Lucas.

Wow it looks like from the pictures we fly charter. Purdue flies commercial?

Last time we got Walton, he really did a nice job talking up MU and Al’s era. He respects that time.

[PointWarrior]

Walton or Homer?   maybe watch the game in silence...

Going to have to.   Everyone else in the house will be asleep.

So, how big of an MU contingent will be at the game. The seats behind each team for the Syracuse/Tenn game are all full, however the center court section has empty seats. I am sure a 9:30am start is not going to draw many locals on Monday morning.

Zag and Purdue contingent rotates in on this session.  They have their pre-game events now and will rotate in on their booster tickets.

Purdue and Gonzaga contingents look really big. I'd expect Marquette and Kansas to be large as well.

I think the SOTG should go to the very vocal Marquette contingent. The crowd was tremendous. Especially when they were getting on Cronin.

Crowd looked and sounded great on tv. We are Marquette!

The crowd was absolutely fantastic!  Great point.
