    ULL gets press in BR

    In today's paper, here in Baton Rouge, on the third page of the sports section is an article about the ULL athletic foundation and their alumni gathering here yesterday. The paper says that there were "...at the sea of close to a hundred red-clad University of Louisiana at Lafayette supporters gathered in a city dominated by LSU." The article is a third of a page and talks about how new the foundation is, having been made public on April 3, 2009. (sorry, couldn't find a link on the web page)

    We have a similar party scheduled for May 20th. According to our web page we have 41 people signed up to attend. I will be interested to see how many are there and if we get similar coverage. I will be there in my blue.

    ULL is starting to make an effort to improve, we need to re-double ours to pull further ahead.

    A sea of close to a hundred? An hour away from the Univ? That's pathetic.

    "Close to a hundred" in Cajun-speak means more than fifty.

    I've been to the last two we had in BR. There were about 75 or so at each one I'd say.

    That's right, all you have to do is count feet!

    Facebook just reminded me to sign up for the event today, so if you check again, you'll see I'm on there now. Woohoo! If it's anything like last year, many more people will show up than are on that list, if I remember correctly. It's also easy for ULLers to pop up here in Baton Rouge anyway because they're so close. This is about 210 or more miles from Ruston, so you've gotta put that in perspective. We get THOUSANDS in North Louisiana, but I don't see that from UL-X, so I am not worried about them. Lookin' forward to the Spring Tour next week!!

    I notice our very own Tech Team Shop proprietor is not yet on the list either, but I'd be shocked if he couldn't make it, so there's another. Probably quite a few will sign up at the last minute.
