So this weekend, the VCU Mens Basketball team headed to Brooklyn, New York to play in A10 conference tournament. After 2 days of relentless play, the Rams secured a spot in the conference championship game.
After an interesting turn of events, myself alongside 55 other dedicated Ram fans, got the rare opportunity to take a bus to Brooklyn and support our Rams in the championship game versus St. Louis. At 4am we began the journey and 6 hours later we arrived at the Barclay’s Center (although with the amount of black and gold you saw around the city, one may have mistaken it for the Stu).
As we waited in line outside the center, the New York City ‘HAVOC’ bus made its rounds around the block multiple times as fans stopped to take pictures, and passersby wondered who this school was that had it’s own obnoxiously decorated bus circling the city.
Needless to say VCU’s marketing team has been busy.
The Rams will take on 12 seed Akron this Thursday in the round of 64 of the NCAA Tournament. If we make to Texas and/or Atlanta, you bet I’ll be there!
