Meet Me in St. Louie!
The "Illini" fans aren't here yet in this undated photo of St. Louis. They're there now, and it's "The Illini: Reloaded."
The road to the "Final Four" stops right here. St. Louis, MO. I thought this was going to end quietly. Not so. When I was going to school at Southern Illinois University, it had a reputation for being a party school. "Illinois" tops the cake. Have you seen these horse's pahtooties on TV yucking it up and partying at 6:00 in the morning? Whatever happened to school and studying? Now they took the party to St. Louis, and it doesn't matter what happens. Did the bars in Champaign-Urbana run out of cervaza? St. Louis is like a home away from home to me. To see all these drunks parade around the arch with their orange and blue bodypaint reminds me of that Mel Gibson movie, "The Last of The Mohicans." If I were the cops, I'd make everyone leave. I was at the arch a few years ago post 9/11. It was almost like boarding an International flight to Heathrow International in London. We came short of having to take our shoes off and spreading our butt cheeks. Maybe that's what they need to do with all these Illini fans. That will run them out of town. One thing is for sure. After tonight, that will be the end of it. Personally, I don't think the Illini have a Chinaman's chance. UNC will win.
