Kansas Basketball

Men's Basketball at the University of Kansas carries with it over a century of tradition and success. James Naismith, the game's inventor, was the first coach. Interestingly, he is also the only KU coach to have a losing career record. Allen Fieldhouse is generally regarded as one of the greatest basketball arenas in the country. 5 National Championship Banners hang from its rafters. Tickets are coveted. For years now, my dear Aunt Nancy has been able to get tickets and share them with me. Last night was the first game (exhibition game) of the season. Here is a pre-game shot of the floor from our seats:
Ranked Number 1 in the Nation by most preseason polls, there are high expectations for a successful season. For more information about the history and traditions of KU Basketball, click here or here.

I had no idea that Wilt Chamberlain played there. Lots of interesting history at KU. Thanks

The wife and I are going to try to see the other arenas in the BIG XII when the Hawks play there. You can still get th=icvkets for those games but no chance for tickets there in Lawrence. So far we have seen Lubbock and Waco, This year we will go to Ames, Stillwater, Lincoln and Austin. I thinkwe'll leave Norman and Boulder for another year. MUD
(MUD is mean Uncle Denny - a nickname my niece gave me. You have to giggle if you call me that to my face)
