Anyone within a couple hours of Troy should be here this Saturday, January 29th. Pack the house as we host that team from down in Mobile. United in Cardinal Day! These young men are playing inspired and very tough basketball so let's come out and support our Trojans. #takethestairs. Look forward to seeing you there!

Another reason to be there... Give me some Frisbee Dog!!
The Halftime Dogs Flying Disc Show performs all over North America, including shows at football, basketball, baseball, soccer, rugby and equestrian events. The show will feature a pair of high-flying dogs with Athena, the 2016 World Disc Dog Champion, a Belgian Malinois and Matrix, a Border Collie, taking to the court at halftime.
Athena and Matrix will be at the main entrance of Trojan Arena from 5:30-5:45 p.m. before the game to visit and take photos with fans.

These dogs look a lot like German Shepards and, at least to my untrained eye, are easily confused with them. They are frequently used as K9s and are very good at suspect interdiction. I've seen videos of these dogs and have seen them leap 15' or more to the top of wall when in a chase. I can't wait to see one of these bad boys live.

I'm in! I ordered some tickets and also got to speak to the legend Ryan Kay. I'm pumped up! I'm thinking of eating Hook's pregame unless something has dethroned the mighty Hooks. I'm going to wear my cc out at the bookstore, arena, and concessions. Bring on the flying dogs!

Just as addition by subtraction is real, so is subtraction by addition. I like donuts, and I like bacon cheeseburgers, but I don' want to combine the two. Let me eat my bacon cheeseburger, then give me the donut for dessert.

Had a great trip! I ate Hook's which was fantastic as always. I had a tour of the student sports complex by a really cool student who told me he has shook HCJS's hand at least twice since he was hired. I had a face to face with ADBJ. My wife literally bumped into HCJS and didn't recognize him until he had passed and someone said "There's Coach Sumrall." I shook hands with LEODIS, who was my late father's favorite player of all time. I fist bumped T-Roy. TBBJR got dozens of hugs from cheerleaders. My daughter got nachos at Momma Goldberg's. Myself and TBBJR got to touch "The Belt". I saw Mike Amos but was too chicken to say hello. I'd give the trip a 10/10.

Here's a question... I think I saw a guy with a lanyard and tag for Bourbon and basketball. A. Was this a promotion? 2. How do I get in on that?
