Georgia Tech - college basketball

---

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

After work, four of us were heading down to the Alexander Memorial Coliseum to watch Georgia Tech basketball. GA Tech was playing the University of Illinois - Chicago.

Even though I wasn't familiar with either team, but I could feel the GA Tech college spirit in the air. The cheers, mascot, band, and college students - all resembled the same athmosphere I could relate myself with the Iowa State Cyclones back in Ames, Iowa, not a long time ago. I remember my old days of trying out the Iowa State Cyclones mascot, attending college basketball games at the Hilton Coliseum, and cheering for our team. All is too familiar for me.

(even though GA Tech lost to the underdog Fighting Illi).

College sports are a strange thing. I guess this is one thing one could not grow up from or get tired with. I was clapping and cheering with the rest of the coliseum.

YELLOW ... JACKETS ... (clap ... clap ... clap clap clap)

YELLOW ... JACKETS ... (clap ... clap ... clap clap clap)

GO JACKETS!
