WHEN we proceed to the game played on Saturday, we will be taking a bus from Manhattan to Syracuse and back after the game.
Currently it will be $50 per person roundtrip and includes beer!
The more people we get, the cheaper it will be. Easy enough.
PLEASE EMAIL HEATHER ASAP IF YOU ARE INTERESTED! nycukalumni@yahoo.com We need to reserve the correct bus.
If you aren’t going on the bus but are heading up comment here so we can keep up with everyone. We will probably hit up a bar and/ or the UK Alumni party with the cheerleaders before the game.
Tickets are still available on Ticketmaster and Stubhub.
Come on Big Blue Nation! Go CATS!
Go Cats!
We are ironing out the details tomorrow, but there are some that will be traveling up to Syracuse for the game this Thursday and/or possibly Saturday.
If you are interested in getting more info, please send us an email so we can include you in our planning options: nycukalumni@yahoo.com.
We will still have game watch parties at Jack Demsey’s and I promise you they will be packed.
Remember, due to our increasing popularity I would recommend to come early and maybe grab dinner to watch the 7pm game in order to have a table.

As most of you know, March Madness is in full swing and we have been chatting with Nike Basketball in conjunction with their Facebook campaign. If you haven’t noticed, check it out here and donate your status to the Wildcats.
Throughout the campaign, Nike will release videos specifically for UK fans. Here’s one of them:

After a little chat with our contacts there, we decided to do one of our own at the SEC Championship game, Saturday, March 13, 2010. We hope you enjoy our fans getting excited for March Madness. GO CATS!

The Wildcats dominated ETSU in a powerful game last night. Be sure to watch the boys tomorrow evening as we hopefully march our way to Syracuse.
As a side note, we will be having a group of people heading up to ‘Cuse on Saturday, March 27 if we make it to the Elite Eight. We recommend you purchase tickets on Stubhub. Most of us are in section 304. I’ll send out more details on bus info, etc. as we get closer next week.

It’s officially March Madness and we have gone from zero to 60 in no time. Congrats on the SEC Championship win, what a game, and lets keep our minds focused for the tough road ahead.
Come and cheer (read: stress out) with other Wildcats fans throughout the next few weeks.

**Save the date** We are looking into a bus trip for Syracuse as long as we win this weekend. More details to come.
Ashton set up a group on ESPN where we can have every one create an entry for the Tournament Challenge. Our idea is for everyone to create two entries for the challenge since everyone will be picking UK in at least one bracket. The entry fee will be $10 (for the two entries), and we will need everyone to make their picks before Thursday’s first game. Everyone who creates an entry can pay Heather or Ashton at the first game on Thursday. Winner takes all.
Info on how to create a bracket is below; some people may need to create an account, but that will be pretty self-explanatory.
