@PeteJayhawk: Love is Hawks in Final Four against Roy and celebrating on Mass by drinking in the streets...... I made like four trips up and down. I plan to be downtown at noon Saturday. Sunday was the best day of my life and Im hoping on Saturday it will become the second best day....

I plan on personally looting the fancy schmancy Tellers restaurant Monday night. And by loot, I mean sit down for a wonderful 5 course meal. Nothing could go wrong on the porch.*

*Note to local police officials. I will not be looting anywhere on Mass St, although I probably will be intoxicated.

@Len Pasquarelli's Stretch Marks: From the looks of that video, the trailer park... ERRR... dorms must have been pretty empty Sunday afternoon.

@Turd Ferguson: Couldn't agree more on the '06 Cards Series win and the '03 Tigers win over NU. Both were electric scenes!

Best street scene ever (apart from the time I climbed the statue of Stan Musial after a certain Midwestern team won something) was on 9th and Broadway in Columbia after Mizzou beat Nebraska in '03. Picture it: take 70,000 fans, a large percentage of them drunk off their asses from a day's worth of tailgating, add lots of rain and two large goalposts. Add hacksaws and take to Harpo's.

1980 David Bowie From The Music Video Ashes To Ashes — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 17:10:18 EDT

I watched the game at an Applebee's on the other side of town, so I only saw the tail end of that Mass St. craziness.

YES I WATCHED THE GAME AT APPLEBEE'S, SO WHAT? THEY HAVE SOME REALLY NICE SCREENS THERE.

Related to nothing, I'm a KU fan stuck in London right now and all I can say is God bless the NCAA for putting all the NCAA championship games online. All they show here is something called football but really (looks both ways), it really isn't football.

@Little Lebowski Urban Achiever:

No kidding. How about that he didn't know Sutton was fired until the reporter told him?* Not the most convincing "I'm happy where I am at. I have no interest in X school" press conference.

*I'm pretty sure that he lied when he said that.

"Fuck yeah, the Achievers"

Although, self danced around the question when asked about it in the press conference.
