Nov 1: UE vs. USI

On Nov. 1 we went to the UE vs. USI basketball game. What a disappointment. For those of you that don't know, USI is UE's cross-town rival. The games have always been close and there is always a great crowd.

Issues this year:
1) the crowd was not into the game or very sizable
2) the ticket price went up so it was about $25 for a couple to go
3) refs called a million fouls and wouldn't let them play (both hit double bonus far from the end of each half)
4) both teams played horribly and neither of them deserved to win
5) the UE pep band did not sound very good... I know it's a basketball game, but sheesh (I can say that because I was a loyal member for 3.5 years)

Happy moments:
1) the game went into double overtime which made the end very exciting
2) UE was victorious!
