Lexington, KY

Tennessee vs 1 Kentucky


Shocking, but true..  I slept until 8:30a!  Well, I was really awake around 5:30, but I kept making myself go back to sleep until 8:30.

Headed down to the gym and spent 30 mins on the treadmill.  If only I could do this everyday.

Worked on this and that and before I knew it, it was time to head next door to Rupp Arena.  That is one nice thing – the hotel is connected to the arena.  5 minutes and you are at work.

The negative…  this hotel is flooded with UK fans!  UK Basketball fans are quite possibly worse than Ohio State Football fans.  

The day was a complete blur.  Tomorrow is signing day for college football; so we had a TON of graphics for tie-ins to the big signing day show.  Plus, we had the #1 team in the country..  so it was a big show.

Before I knew it, the game was over.

Even though it was hectic, it was awesome.  I got to work with some of the peeps from the NHRA crew and they are always a pleasure to work with.  And I got to work on a Lyon truck with one of my all-time favorite engineers.  Couldn’t ask for more in a day at work!

As soon as I entered the hotel lobby, my mood changed.  A sea of blue.  Got on the elevator with a very drunk UK fan…  who proceeded to randomly scream lyrics to various songs.  Quite disturbing.
