Sweet 16 in Indianapolis

Kathy, Travis, and I braved a hostile crowd on Friday at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis to watch the Sweet 16 game between Arizona and Louisville. It was possibly a once in a lifetime opportunity to see the Wildcats play in Indianapolis, so we were willing to spend a little bit of money for the tickets. We were lost in a sea of 25,000+ Cardinal fans who made the short two hour drive up from Louisville, but we still enjoyed ourselves. We were not expecting a win out of the Wildcats, but we were certainly not expecting a 39 point blowout either! Oh well. We were just happy that Arizona made it as far as they did when they weren't expected to. We got a lot of attention being some of the only Arizona fans in the section we were seated in (behind the Louisville band!), and we got even more attention having a 3 month old baby with us dressed in his U of A outfit. Travis actually did very well throughout the entire game.

After the game, I was somehow still able to smile!
