UAB faces 3rd ranked Memphis tonight @ 7pm in the FedEx Forum. The first of what will likely be 3 meetings between these teams. UAB and Memphis both play full court press basketball. This will probably be THE fastest 40 minutes of basketball that we play this year… It’s not to be missed…
Viewing party at On Tap 280.
$2 pints, and supposedly a playmate working the tables
I’ll also take this opportunity to post a link that I found the other day on BlazerTalk:
Here is a scan of the program from UAB’s first Basketball game on November 24, 1978.
Can’t miss items: the sweet fros, the daisy dukes (on the basketball players), and the superfly disco ad from Parisian on the last page.

Yeah, I’ve been reading about that viewing party on other sites. I’d like to stop by if I can get away from the house.
When we make it to the dance I might be able to arrange a big screen showing if we play at night. I have access to such things

I got Harry “The Hat” Walker to autograph one of my UAB basketball programs when I was a little kid. Ahhh, the memories….
