On the Road to the Final Four!

The title speaks for itself.  For the second year in a row, Butler has unleashed hell on tournament brackets everywhere...that line is from the opening scene of Gladiator in case you were wondering, and yeah, I'm watching that right now on my laptop in case you were wondering that too, and yeah, I'm blogging because our bus has wifi in case you were wondering about that too, too.  So anyway, student tickets went on sale last Monday for 25 dollars.  Anyone who knows anything about the Final Four knows that price is insanely low.  So I bought one just in case there turned out to be a way for me to get there to watch it.  Last year with the games being played right down the road in downtown Indy I am told that tickets sold out in a matter of seconds...everyone was waiting for the link to go up and when it did the Butler student body unleashed hell.   This year with a much longer trip as part of the equation they took a couple of hours to sell out.  Anyway, after that I signed up for a raffle the student government was having for 40 students to have a bus ride to Houston plus hotel for only 150 dollars.  Long story short, I somehow got drawn (even though it seems I never win anything when it comes to drawings or raffles).  So now I am literally on the road to Houston and the Final Four!  I'll just close with two final thoughts.  First, roadtrips have become so much more than what they once were.  Second, Go Bulldogs, "on my signal, unleash hell!!!"
