As a UK fan I want to highlight this post. There was a time when UK had George Blanda playing and Bear Bryant coaching. I was born too late and watched many terrible UK football teams play.

A couple of years ago, I presented at a conference in Lexington. At the happy hour, I started to talking to some of the participants and one of them told me that their dad was a war hero who graduated from UK in 1949. He had enough money to buy either season football or basketball tickets, but not enough for both. In the participant's words, "He chose football. I have been paying for that choice my whole life."
