-Been listening to the Rudy soundtrack a lot over the past 24 hours. One of the greatest soundtracks in cinematic history... elicits a lot of reflection for this CTE stricken man. Backyard tackle, practices, trips to Lexington for SEC Saturdays, November playoffs, state championships... God bless football.
-K Flags went up in Jefferson County yesterday. Car and house.
-November afternoon game with this forecast... I expect to see some tastefully dressed Cats fans tomorrow and also the wodie crew.
-I got a ticket yesterday. [smoke]
-Plan is to get in on the richie uber btw. Should be a great ride down. No stress or anger, just some beers, tunes, and a few laughs. As it should be.
-The Pine Room last night (old Chick Inn and Cast Iron on River Road). Really nice finishes and good atmosphere. Food was fairly average but permissible.
-My Dad shared with me (again) that the last time he drank gin was at the original Pine Room on River Road in December 1969 after the Kentucky-Notre Dame game. Went postgame with some fraternity buddies, met a UK alum there with his family who ended up buying them drinks all night after sending his wife and kids home. Never remembered leaving. Worst hangover of his life. Hasn't touched the stuff since.
-Cats 24 Dawgs 21. Kroger Field environment will be special.
