So after my KUAA event Teri, Nikki and Will invited me to join them for the rest of their day's adventures ... so glad they did and cannot thank them enough for such a fabulous day!! We had the opportunity to meet the general manager of Soldier Field and have him give us a personal tour of the stadium! He was so nice and full of great stories - it was a true pleasure and an experience I won't soon forget. Now maybe I need to actually go to a Bears game huh...

What an amazing Sunday. Brunch at a cute little creperie in Clayton, wandered thru the city Museum (that place is crazy!), a quick stop at the arch, then it was game time! And my Kansas Jayhawks beat those North Carolina Tar Heels! Life could not be sweeter…

Oh my gosh! The centennial jayhawk is my fav of all the older versions of the KU mascot and I LOVE that they made a live version of him!! I need a photo with him!!! How do you think I can manage that from Chicago??? Hmm...

This only tips the iceberg. Allen Fieldhouse is an experience like no other.

This has been one hack of a season. Originally thought to be a bit of a rebuilding year, the Jayhawks kept winning. They won their way to finishing #2 in the country and to a #1 seed in the NCAA tournament. Sadly, they fell a bit short of the expectations of media and fans and of their potential. They grew into a fantastic team and it was extremely sad to see them end their season with such a horrible loss. VCU was the better team and deserved that win. I will continue to love my Jayhawks and be happy that they provided a damn good season. Rock Chalk!
