I got my story twisted. I meant "for" BYU. The "nuts" was not positive. It's a huge rivalry.quote:Originally posted by bkekcs:quote:Originally posted by RJM:My cousin went to the U for med school. His favorite March Madness play is Danny Ainge going coast to coast against BYU. We were in a pizza joint near the U at the time. The place went nuts. The U was pretty good at the time. They had Tom Chambers and Danny Vranes back then. Both were first rounders.quote:I'm pulling for Utah State and BYU to have some post season success.
You bring back some good memories. Too bad Utah wasn't too good this year.
One minor correction on your post. Ainge was playing for BYU against Notre Dame.
I wonder if the pizza place was The Pie. That's some good heavy duty pizza.
I haven't been to SLC for quite a few years. My cousin stayed and did research at the U after school for several years. He's now at Loma Linda. The Pie makes sense even though I'm not sure. He lived on South 1200 East and we walked. Looking at Google earth it seems possible. From my perspective he lived easily accessible to Foothill Boulevard which led out to Park City and Little Cottonwood Canyon.
