Is that your little brother? He's a good looking kid.

Fair point. They prob would have fucked up the orange anyway.

They're smart to promote that to build season ticket hype, but, yeah no way those cloud panels are *never* retracted for a UT hoops game.  According to Tim Liewiecke (CEO of OVG), those panels can be retracted up into the ceiling in 5 minutes with the push of a button.

Texas Tech fans will hack the retract codes and have 5k fans up in the rafters for the Red Raider visit.

Can we retire McConaughey at some point like we do with Bevo?

You got a captive bolt gun?

It’d be a lot cooler if you did.

Moody Center Ribbon Cutting Ceremony -- April 19th, 2022

 

Man the Minister of culture shit has gotten so old. So with that holy fuck how bad ass is MM? I’m not even gay and I’d let him suck my dick.

It was cool getting to go inside the Moody Center tonight.  I was at the ground breaking ceremony they had a few years ago, which feels like forever ago.  It is a beautiful venue.  I saw it in its concert set up this evening, and it was not hard to visualize how amazing it would be for basketball.  Not a bad seat in the house, and - while I am certainly no acoustics expert - the acoustics seemed excellent.  There are still some rough spots and some finishing touches that will need to happen, and it seems they are unapologetic about gouging folks on food/drink ($16 for beer).  Still, it feels very modern and I hope to be part of a lot of basketball memories there.

I snapped a few pics.  It seemed like most stuff had been covered by the press yesterday, so my pics aren't really that interesting.

 McConaughey with the homage to Captain Kangaroo?

I will say, parking was an absolute shit storm.  I pre-paid for parking in the Trinity Garage using the link the Moody Center provided.  I waited in a super long line to get into the lot, and when we were near the front they closed the garage because it had reached its capacity.  Either they were letting in folks who didn't pre-pay, or the pre-pay system didn't keep track of the number of spots available.  Hopefully they get all that ironed out.

We had a different president, MBB coach and WBB coach when they broke ground on this building.  So yeah, sorta was forever ago. 

Looks like the upscale version of college Park Center in Arlington.  Same layout,but we checked off on all the upgrades.

It looks like the cedar park center, even in concert mode. BUT WITH THE ADVANTAGE OF $19.49 ELECTRIC JELLYFISH!

Went there to see John Mayer last night - aside from typical beer price complaints, the venue is incredible. I’m really looking forward to see what it’s like for hoops.

How was the parking and traffic in/out?  I'll be at George and Willie next Friday.

I got there pretty early to check out the venue and snagged a street spot near Scholz’s, so easy for me. It seemed like things were fairly organized for garages/comparable to leaving the Erwin Center when I was walking back to the car. The rideshare pickup/drop off is all on the east side so it didn’t look like mad chaos.

What a weird design to have the seats stick out like that.  Who thought that was a good idea?

You weren't a math major, I take it.

Seriously.  I've gone full circle multiple times on MM but right now he just makes me cringe.

its nice to have a film celebrity to rep the university and athletics but he let the Minister of Culture/King of Cool thing go to his head.  it's kinda played out, IMO.  Unless someone else steps up he'll have a lifetime gig as the Gameday "pick 'em" Celebrity.

His Gameday entrance prior to the LSU game bought him some time with me. 

He's better than having drunk CDC or Plonsky selling us on why this California partnership is good for our student-athletes.

Yeah, I'm thinkin Saturday might be busy so looking at Tuesday sometime.  I wonder if "basketball configuration" means a court.  Probably just the first few rows of bleachers will be in.

Went to the George Strait concert tonight. Before the encore, it got REALLY loud. I can’t even imagine how loud a close basketball game is going to get.

I went last night to the George Strait / Willie concert. Granted, I was upstairs in one of the loge box deals but trying to imagine the basketball configuration... It seems like the pitch isn't very steep on the stands so you would be a good bit set back away from the court on all sides. Maybe it was perspective and maybe I'm just used to spurs games at the AT&T Center which is pretty steep so it feels like you're right on top of the action. The building itself is great though. 

Real clean. Had forgotten about all those trash designs they were posting last year.

Got rid of the state at half court which I’ve been wanting to do for forever

 

Nice. The only thing that’s different than what I wanted is a darker wood color for the key. 

Congratulations to our winning submissions throughout the

Court Design contest: Trey Jackson, Carter Bailey, Christopher Ainley and Sam LaBelle! With our head coaches’ input, elements from each of their submissions were combined to generate the final court design 

 

 

Lol so they didn’t use a submission. They used beard’s design and then found submissions that had some element that was the same and called them the winners. 

OK, looks good guys.  Now put it all away again, the Who are bringing their shit in here soon.
