I have been to a quite few Final Fours both as someones guest and by buying my own tickets--- no matter what team you are for its something to see everybody rooting for both teams--- quite an accomplishment to make it that far no matter which team you like--I remember one I went to in Indy and they sell team practice tickets money goes to NCAA Charity---they sold like 30,000 tickets at $20 a piece and this is just to watch one team practice ---FED 387

Hidy Larry hope y’all are doing well just curious what Kentucky team did you play for and how long was you basketball career ?

I played for Lowes H.S. I went to West Georgia College with a friend off of our high school team my freshman year. Sophomore year I played at Gainesville Junior College and in March of that year Patsy and I married. I'm an Austin Peay aluminums and the athletic department paid an for an extra quarter so I could student teach. I finished in December 1972 walked in graduation spring of 1973. I was not a very good college player but good enough to be part of the team.
After college I started flying toy airplanes.
