On This Date, 32 Years Ago, A Wonderful Thing Happened...

I also happened to get married that day. The Cats and Marriage still kicking ass after all these years.

Happy Anniversay Upstate!

I was there, passing out "I Hate UofL" bumper stickers. Great memory, and the first of many epic beat-downs of the program which wanted to play Kentucky "any time, any place."

Going strictly from memory here, I'm thinking we won that game 66-44 and got some revenge from the painful loss in Knoxville.

65-44, close enough.

Since the "Dream Game," UK has owned the series, 24-11, which includes:

*Two 30-point blowouts
*Five more 20+ point wins
*11 total wins by 10+ points

Louisville has not won more than twice in a row in the series, while Kentucky owns two 4-game and four 3-game win streaks, one of which is current and will become 4 in a row on Dec. 26th.

Finally, there's this: of Louisville's 11 wins, 2 came during probation and 2 more during the Gillespie disaster... giving them, in essence, 7 legit wins over us in the last 30 years.

I was in Louisville for that one and watched with exceeding glee on TV. I came home the next day with the CJ that pictured Turpin packing a dunk attempt by Billy Thompson on the front pg.
I had the paper for the longest time but unfortunately it disappeared.
