Also, happy 40th anniversary to Bob Knight’s chair tossing, for those who celebrate. And if you're a fan of Based in Lafayette, a deal to share with friends.
I am an Evansville alum, and IU player (later UE transfer), and former UE coach Marty Simmons I think got under Bob Knight's skin moments before he threw that chair.
Wherever I was, I was listening to Talking Heads, U2, and REM (the early date matters for those last two) and complaining incessantly about popular music. Sure, it was annoying but not wrong. As evidence, the Billboard top 5 for that day: Careless Whisper, Wham! ("guilty feet," George?) Lover Boy, Billy Ocean; Easy Lover, Philip Bailey with Phil Collins; Can't Fight This Feeling, REO Speedwagon; I Want To Know What Love Is, Foreigner
On February 23, 1985, we were in Atlanta at a theater where the IU and Purdue alumni clubs had jointly arranged a live closed circuit TV (remember that?) showing of the game. When Bobby threw the chair, the mixed audience was shocked!
"Where were you on Feb. 23, 1985?"
I don't know, man, I had just turned two.

Busy trying to decipher the words to “Harborcoat.”
... something about a little shit putting a splinter in your eye?
Dave, could you summarize the position of the city? The language seems clear, yet they clearly think they have a case, so on what grounds?
