I am going to the game tonight- I will be in the lower level, behind one of the goals (Section 111), so look for me on ESPN . if you're going to be there, give me a shout on here and maybe can chat during halftime.

In any case, I will try to post up some pics if they come out well.

Well Triton, I didn't see the Poisonous one there although there was over 15,000 attendees at the game. I do know that it was the loudest game that I have been to at Mizzou Arena.

I quickly uploaded a few of the pics- I have a lot of great ones but didn't have time to look through them all.

First off, it just isn't a home game without the Golden Girls (and no, not the senior citizens from the TV show )



The guy in the black suit (Darth Jayhawk) was pretty entertaining during free throws- flapping his wings



There was no love for the Jayhawks or Bill Self (see sign in upper right corner of pic above the Darth Jayhawk):



Second half got pretty physical- here is one of the loose ball tieups:



I like seeing Aldrich on his arse and Jayhawk players fouling:



Students "storming" Norm's Court after the game ended:



Since it would be so late for me to get back to KC anyhow, decided to have a celebratory drink at the "Mizzou" bar:



I have more pics that I might post up if there is interest.

Good pics, post up.

Looks like you had pretty decent seats, huh especially o fthe golden girls.

[Tigerhaze]

I was in Row 23, so pretty good seats. the amazing thing is that I bought from the box office- couldn't have done that in past years.

The funny thing about the Golden Girls is that they are always hot, but every year they look younger and younger to me. I guess that's what happens when you get "old".

I wouldnt know

I may not be as good as I once was, but Im as good once as I ever was.

Was this the largest crowd this year? Im sure PS was there, he was the one holding his ears cause the noise was so loud for his multiple beered body.

[Tigerhaze]

The game was sold out, and the crowd was announced at 15,061- I think the only other home game this year that was sold out was Baylor at the same attendance.

I looked for PS- never met him in person but have seen enough pics. I saw several people with disproportional ears, but they were false alarms.

Given the crowd size, it doesn't suprise me that I didn't see him.

TH, the PS would have been the only fan there clapping with his ears. You could not have missed it or the breeze it generates if you were anywhere near him.
