This was the case in 1994, 1998 and 2002 when I attended the first round of the NCAA Tournament in Sacramento and at the United Center in Chicago twice. I obviously realized this in 2004 when I only attended the afternoon Friday session in Milwaukee (but I may not have attended the evening session since I cut out of work that day and needed to show up later that afternoon).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2313\" title=\"P3190146\" src=\"http:\/\/www.anygame-anywhere.com\/andrew\/uploaded_images\/2010\/03\/P3190146-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anygame-anywhere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/P3190146-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.anygame-anywhere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/P3190146-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With Ohio St. leading 13-3, UCSB made on a 9-0 run to cut the lead to one point, which not only peaked my interest but obviously everyone at the Bradley Center as the crowd went from relatively quiet to raucous. Cheers rang down for UCSB for several minutes, but Ohio St. quickly took control of the game and cruised to a 68-51 victory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once again, I left the stadium between games of the session with my \u201csmoking\u201d stamp.
