Bohanan’s is great, or at least it was when I was there over a decade ago.

I just submitted for tickets from the IFund allotment. Hoping to get tickets to witness some redemption after taking my family to NYC/MSG. That game had me thinking I might just save our Illini trips for bowl games instead.

Awesome, sounds like there will be a lot of Illini in our section! We’ll be in row 7. Even convinced my KU alum wife to wear orange Illini gear to the game.

Does anyone know if you can still go to the Chelsea Bell for the pre-game or is the whole bar closed for the ticketed event? NYC Illini Club lists Mustang Harry’s, Pennsylvania 6, Stout NYC, and Pig n Whistle as alternatives. I’ll be in section 223 with my wife and daughter. Hopefully more...

To be fair, he said in a game. If team shooting is as good as suggested, there could be a game with a lot of possessions where we shoot well. I can see a game like the following from 3: Ben H gets on a little heater, 5-8 from 3. DGL with some instant offense, 2-3 from deep. Carey Booth goes 1-3...

Sorry, the Ifund link said it was sold out, but I got some via the MSGHOOPS link.

They are already sold out for the presale. I got in line about 8 minutes after it opened and they were all gone.

1st?

I hope so too. It would be my third time down to 30A and Destin area this year, but my wife would literally never say no to another trip there. I know the other thread had fry wars (can’t believe nobody mentioned Gene’s and Jude’s—best fries and hot dogs around), but The Red Bar in Grayton...

Before the tournament started, I told my wife we were going to New Orleans if Illinois is in the final four. Yesterday, at an axe throwing place, she says, “Since you said that we were going to New Orleans if Illinois made the final four, does that mean we are going if Kansas makes it?” For...

We will probably pass on 7 inch centers. And how athletic are we talking? Like a Larry Bird? Unless it’s this guy: Did hear his growth plates are wide open, though. In all seriousness, good points. However, as OrangeFever used to say, take pie while pie is passing...a bird in hand...or...

Yes, TBIs can have a significant impact on mood, memory, etc. you can be a very different person afterward. Sometimes temprorary, sometimes not. Usually more common with more severe TBIs, but every injury is different.

I did not play college basketball, and I have no idea what you do professionally, but I don’t think you “understand the concussion stuff.” TBIs are no laughing matter and just because he was cleared to play and passed whatever protocols the team has in place, does not mean he is without a doubt...

Was going to post the same exact thing. My dad says that phrase all the time.

Lol must’ve been Chin on the scout for St. Peter’s.
