Free beer starting at 4! Would make for a rousing reaction to our selection - especially since the show doesn't start til 5. :)

When's the AAC championship banner hanging ceremony at Moody? Can do it at the same time.

Ok, ok. I'm getting ahead of myself. I'm sorry.






But, seriously, when is it?

This is Fing awesome. You guys in the Metroplex better be there, that place should be filled, cool as hell they're doing it with the fans. So cool, those are experiences you'll never forget as a Mustang and may never have the chance to experience again.

I'm impressed over and over again in how this team recognizes their fans and "gives back" so to speak. Truly a special team for reasons outside of a basketball court.

I hope CBS will be there with live cameras when they are selected. I assume they will considering it's the feel good story of the year

I have heard that both CBS and ESPN will have crews at this event, and that they both made the request a couple weeks ago. I believe the players will be on the floor with fans in the seats and the screen will be lowered quite a bit.

Also, I heard that Turner specifically asked the ath dept if they could open the concession/beer stands for this.
