Time travel to see UL games

If you could travel in time to go to any UofL sporting events of all time and be there to see it, what three events would you choose to go to.

My list would be
2005 tourney game vs WVU
2001 game vs Tenn (the comeback crazy game)
1986 championship game

What events would make your list?
Another good one I thought of was the Darius Washington Choke.

UK-Louisville Overtime Quarter Final in 1983

Kentucky tied it at the buzzer in regulation.
Can still see Lancaster Gordon on a ONE-ON-TWO breakaway about two minutes into OT, stop at the head of the key and rattle in a jumper...it was like, "What the hell, I'm not gonna wait till we have numbers...I've made this shot a thousand times." And he did. Parenthetically, I think this was the first time the UK chickens played us since they built the pyramids.

You want to relive the Dream

That's a great one, Roz

I was there in that little cracker box gym in Knoxville

it had been 1958 since they were forced to play us (and had lost)

I would love to be there again (and 29 yrs old!)

Lordy, lordy, frankpos

You should write a diary about what it was like being at that game. I would absolutely love hearing about what it was like to be there not only to watch it, but to see the UK fans after the Cards spanked that ass. Please, please, please write more about this.

83 UK Game

The last nine minutes are on You Tube.
Besides members of your immediate family, it will be the most beautiful thing you have ever seen.
Watch out for those shorty shorts!
Go to You Tube and Search "Louisville versus Kentucky 1983."
Have a great evening, Roz
