L-S-Who??

so i cannot let this past weekend's events go untold. they are by far too noteworthy to be forgotten. we shall begin with perhaps the most significant news: UK's double overtime victory over the reigning, FORMER NUMBER ONE seat team LSU. as my friends and i made our way to lexington to eat before our homecoming dance this weekend, the excited chatter that you would typically expect to occur on such a trip was instead replaced with complete silence as we all listened intently to the game via the car stereo. upon entering the hibachi grille, we joined the sea of blue-clad spectators crowded around the bar television watching in anticipation as the score remained tied with only minutes remaining in the game. realizing we needed to order and eat quickly in order to have plenty of time at the dance, we tore ourselves away from the game to do so. as soon as our orders had been placed we were back at the t.v., screaming and biting our nails as our wildcats pulled out the victory. an immediate phone call to my parents and brother made as a round of celebratory beverages was served. a great start to the night. it was time to party.

we left the restaurant and sat through the unavoidable lexington traffic- of course our dance had to be located in the heart of lexington on one of its biggest nights of the decade. but we didnt mind, it was a small price to pay. when we finally reached the hotel (which just happenes to be attached to none other than Rupp Arena itself) we entered on the bar side. we laughed as we witnessed the mass amount of gold and purple attire surrounding the bar. needless to say, the LSU fans were drowning their sorrows and more than willing to buy drinks for certain college girls dressed in formal dance attire. it was a beautiful sight to see the harmony between the blue and the purple that night. or maybe it was just the booze.
