When I volunteered to take a road trip to Fayetteville to watch Kentucky take on the Arkansas Razorbacks, the bar was set low. Little did I know it would be one of my favorite Kentucky basketball experiences.
In case you forgot what transpired, Kentucky was victorious at Bud Walton Arena. Sure, that’s one reason why the road trip was an overwhelming success, but there are so many more that will make it one I’ll never forget.

Before agreeing to work the game, I threw in an unusual caveat. Instead of simply covering the event from press row, I invited my Dad to join me on the excursion.
