Beware of the Dawg

Who could have imagined that Butler would make it to the final four? Who could imagine that they would make it to the championship game, play in their home town 5 miles from campus, take Duke to the wire, and almost hit a 30 foot bank shot to win the game? I am not sure too many people, unless you are in Hollywood filming “Hoosiers II: the Qwest of the Dawg”. On a cool night in Indianapolis, Butler almost pulled off the improbable (learn a long time ago, nothing is impossible). Indianapolis would have exploded if that last shot would have dropped.

Theme song for this adventure, in memory of the home town boy (Michael Jackson) “going back to Indiana” for me going back home and Butler going back home to play in the final four. I got to see good friends, have a bbq, hang with friends from IU, have a white castle, and one of those Steak n Shake shakes (strawberry and banana), one of the best shakes on the planet.
