Was down in Charlottesville, VA the other weekend (home of UVA) and I spotted this window. Flattery?

Being in DC, I have gotten into many arguments about this. I have nothing against UVA having a Paint the Town/Hall/Arena Orange game or whatever, as long as they admit that they got the idea from Illinois. Most Cavs fans do, the ones that don't are very similar to the fans that think basketball was invented between Chapel Hill and Durham, if you catch my drift. The one thing that separates ours from theirs is that ours was started as a promotion, something that a radio station did and it caught on and became a tradition. UVA's was started by the school to boost team spirit and get more people in the stands . . . basically to copy what was done at Illinois.
Really, I love the Cav's only because they are one of the few respectable teams in the ACC, plus they are orange and blue so thats just hard to hate :)

I will admit that i think the Virginia Cavaliers logo is the coolest logo in sports.
