Just look back at the guy and ask:

"Do you like movies about gladiators?"

See how he responds.

Dukefanky, it takes a big set of nuts and thick skin to be a hardcore Duke fan living in Ky. Mad props brother! Keep fighting the good fight for all of us Duke fans!

Oh I don't hesitate to wear it everywhere I go...you can tell it just kinda messed up their day just a little....and I'm my head, I'm silently thinking, please say something!!

Get a few beers and watch it sometime! It's a classic!
"Flight 2-0-9-er, you are clear for take off." "Roger." "Huh?" "L.A. Departure frequency: 1-2-3.9-er." "Roger." "Huh?" "Request vector, Over." "What?" "Flight 2-0-9-er, clear for vector 3-2-4." "We have clearance, Clearance." "Roger, Roger. What's our vector, Victor?" "How are the readings on those clearance, over?" "That's Clearance Over, over." "Roger." "Huh?" "Roger, over." "What?" "Huh?" "Who?"

Had a great time meeting the crew. I spotted QC on the way to the Skillet then got to talk with retiredsoldier who seems to be just a solid down to earth fella. Then into the Skillet where T and KY were waiting. Both great guys to cut up and talk with. We all ate a great meal, talked and took some pics, then headed over to Cameron and hung out a table where we waited for Skeelow and Aubrey and I got to meet Skees new girlfriend. (She’s a really nice looking young lady Skeelow) The Admiral walked by us while we were talking too. Unfortunately, we caught no recruits at the Skillet this year. That kinda sucked. Once we all got inside, took in the intros and all . Zion’s first warmup layup happened right in front of me and HonkeyT , only it wasn’t a layup, it was a between the legs jam. The crowd went nuts. Was disappointed the dunk contest didn’t happen and CTC seemed a bit shorter this year, but all in all, good times.

Show thanks on the compliment on my girlfriend. Her 1st time in Cameron and I think she will be a Duke fan for life!

Thanks to all of you guys that waited on me at the table. Was great to say hello even for just a few minutes. Next year I will hopefully get my work schedule straight and take off the whole day to be there in time for the Skillet and hanging out.

Aubrey was glad to see you fellas again too.

CTC was great. The team intro was epic! That Zion dunk in warmup = wow!! A buddy of mine on press row caught it on video and it got 1.7 million views in under 24 hours. He had Slam magazine, Yahoo, ESPN just to name a few wanting access to the video. I will try to post the video soon.

We noticed that the Cameron Crazies has the signs/card with number 10 on them (the cards usually used in dunk contests) with them in the stands. After seeing that I thought that there would be a dunk contest. However, no dunk contest. Anybody have any info as to whether a contest was going to happen or not? Just curious.

Another good CTC. I am really excited to see what this team will do!
