Since I was 12 years old I have loved my beloved CARDS.  I have gone to many games and been apart of atmospheres you really can't explain, but just feel.  And for these feelings I owe the great Freedom Hall.  This list represents the cards I have watched and been apart of me while growing up.  Playing pickup games and pretending to be ellis myles and yelling ELLIS everytime you got a rebound. (Yeah I know some of you have done this too lol) Watching Larry O'Bannon grow from a small town Louisville native, to an incredibly special four year adored cardinal.  Doing the warm up Franciso Garcia dunk, where he goes up and acts like hes going to cram it home, but actually just does an over exaggerated finger roll.  Cheering for Marvin Stone as he transferred to the good school and dealt payback to the kittens.  Laughing as Otis George spent more time on the ground then standing up in the game. ( Gave us 110% every night he played) Knowing that Reese Gaines was going to hit the game winning shot.  Getting a sick feeling in my stomach just thinking about Luke Whiteheads drastic fall.  Never will I feel the same feeling again in the Hall when Earl made that fadeaway shot at the top of the key to secure the whiteout knockout of No. 1 Pitt .  Watching Andree McGee straight harass opposing guards. And finally, the great one Daryl Griffith who is an inspiration to all cardinal fans and taking Lousiville to heights that consider him Legendary.  These are just small pieces of MY Freedom Hall puzzle that I never will forget and ALWAYS cherish.........Thank You Louisville, I am truely proud to be a card
