The faces in the background are priceless.A little disappointed no one has posted the pic of Donovan Jackson hitting the dagger 3 in Lawrence. If someone has it handy, please do. Love looking at that thing.

I think NWB is my favorite part of those pictures
There are several KU fans that sit two rows down from us in the other half of the row (we're on one aisle). That same pocket of seats is blue every year when KU comes to town, Cardinal the rest of the games. IMO, they deserve a special place in hell, along with the bi-annual Nebraska fans that used to surround us in Jack Trice.
However, they were pretty quiet this year. There were several older male KU fans a couple of rows down, across the aisle in 238. They were pretty calm...and were mostly scrolling & texting on their phones by the second half. And up above us, over in 238, there was a rather shrill-voiced woman that was VERY vocal...until about the 5 minute mark of the first half. Didn't hear a peep out of her in the second half.

Those fans in 238 weren't in row 12 by chance, were they?
The ones that are there every year are in 239 with us.
In 238, the quiet ones were in 7 or 8 (I think 8). The woman was above us, so 12 is a strong possibility. Are you near there?
No, I sold my tickets (on Cyclones.com) and now I wonder if that noisy lady ended up in them. Ugh.
Those seats are on stubhub 365. The re seller has had those for at least 10 years. It's frustrating because of not only random people behind us every game but a lot of the time its kids and they kick my chair back a lot, because, well, they're kids and to sit that long is tough.There are several KU fans that sit two rows down from us in the other half of the row (we're on one aisle).

When Michigan was here a couple years ago, the fans in the spot drove from Ann Arbor and were incredibly complimentary of the program, arena, fans, etc.
You've brightened an otherwise dreary day for me. Many thanks. I love the faces in the background.
"In the stands" for hoops is kinda boring compared to in the stands involving drunken football fans. No taunting, drunken brawls, or puking. Disappointing.
I've wondered about that in the past, as there seemed to be a variety of ages & sizes rotating through there.
Okay - next game, turn around & wave so I can spot you. You've probably figured out who I am quite some time ago...I'm not exactly a shrinking violet.
Side note: that's one of the BS scalping things that ticks me off...I know fans who would LOVE to get season tickets, but they are always sold out...
Well I know that, but tickets are cheaper there than Hilton at this point. Demand isn’t as high as past KU teams maybe. Idk that there will really be a day that place isn’t full.
