A lone voice

Last night we took a mini-trip to Columbia to watch Vandy take on Mizzou in basketball. Mizzou was ranked 15 and Vandy is just outside of the top 25, so we knew it would be a good matchup. Unfortunately the game was neck and neck all the way to the end...went to OT....and Vandy lost. It was killer cause the game was tied in OT, Vandy has the ball and can hold to get the last shot to hopefully win. The moron is dribbling around wasting time and Mizzou steals the ball, runs down the court, and slams it in. Booooooo! Have I mentioned that I just HATE Mizzou...ugh! The only good thing is Illinois plays them in 2 weeks and we'll just have to demolish them!

So here's the funny part. We went to the Illini-Vandy game last year at U of I and Dustin and his friend LOVED that the arena gets silent when we shoot free throws. So they would scream out and be stupid whenever this silence happened. Then that night walking down the street they get approached by these students who were like "You are the guys! You are the guys from the game!" So they felt like celebrities since I guess half the stadium heard them and turned to stare at the bozos. They still talk about it to this day. So we go to Mizzou and as the game nears the end, everybody in the stadium gets super silent for the Mizzou free throws. So Dustin SCREAMS "Let's Go Vandy!" as a player shoots his free throw...and misses! We were excited it worked! Then today my parents are reading the stltoday article on the game and look at this excerpt:

Vandy went up 72-70 on an Ezeli tip-in with 1:07 to go. Five seconds later, English missed a free throw as a lone voice called out, "Let's go, Vandy." He hit the second to make it 72-71.

So now Dustin has sent this to everyone he knows and wants to be known as "the lone voice." I think he's going to have more fun going to visiting arenas to see Vandy just so he can pull this stunt!
