Jayhawks Rock

Tonight's adventure was a trip to Husum for the NCAA final on the new flatscreen TV at Hooba's. Hooba is a Kansas alum who should be given a stipend by KU. I'd never heard of the Jayhawks before meeting Hooba. Last week he promised if KU made it to the final, dinner was on him. So we joined the faithful, ate Posada, cornbread and crispy brownies (accident), and cheered on KU as they went head to head vs Memphis. It was an awesome game. We screamed. We gasped. We only got beer refills during commercials. Hooba took several 'smoke breaks' outside. I don't know what he promised during his outside meditations, but whatever it was, it worked. There is blood on the ceiling to prove his devotion, as he hit his fist on the vent in triumph as they tied the game to go to overtime. Way to go, Jayhawks! We're now official fans. I have the souvenir beer coaster to prove it.
