Welcome to part of my take today is Monday, April 3rd and then there were two. Championship Game. You got his wagon and that might be the kiss of death because I'm the minus sign king and I'm about to lay a brick I'm about to lay a brick on Yukon Mmm, and it's given me vibes of how sure I was that there were gonna be no doinks. I'm essentially betting on no doinks tonight Okay, so let's set the scene let's set the scene for the people if you watch the intro you saw us in a different place We care so much about the listeners. There were people walking by the room we were recording in. We're now in Louisiana, by the way. Uh, that we said we have to, for the AWLs stand up, walk out, find a new room. And now we are here. And we're in Louisiana. We're in Houston on Saturday night for the final four. We attended the game and now we're gonna break down the games straight up Lake Charles Louisiana is my favorite place on earth. It is I love this place. It is So it's yeah, it's fantastic place. Thank you to everyone who accommodates us here Where should we start with the game? Should we go with the the first game the buzzer beater and then get to you? Yeah, let get chronological with it. It was the most tan fan base that I've ever seen in the history of a basketball game. A lot of bros from San Diego, a lot of bros from FAU. Very attractive people just in general. This was the broeiest final forever because Miami bros go hard as well. Yeah. Like there was a few times where I would I turned around in the concourse and there was just a bunch of Miami fans and I was like, you guys look like you're having a

fucking awesome time and I wish I was somewhere between 15 to 17 years younger. Watching a bunch of dudes roll around just slugging tall boys wearing Sean Taylor and Ray Lewis football jerseys. Yep. That's how basketball should be played. Saw some Tony Gwyn jerseys, which

was sick. That's just a nice wrinkle. I actually saw a baseball San Diego State Tony Gwyn

jerseys. That was cool. Did he play at San Diego State? I don't think so. Yeah, he did.

He did. Yeah. And he was a basketball player too. He's a damn good basketball player.

Yeah. There was some those as well. So the vibes were cool. We went into the arena, memes and I sat, I mean, it is space city. We were basically sitting in orbit. We went and we sat at the top row. People were shaming us. I actually enjoyed the top row. You couldn't really see a lot, but I actually enjoyed it. I don't know why. There was something about it. It was kind of cool to see the entire arena all at once. Yeah, you were up high enough that's like where Jeff Bezos goes

when he says he's going to outer space.

Yeah.

Just in like near earth or orbit.

That's where you were.

It's a knock against the whole idea of playing basketball in a football stadium. Yes. Which I understand why they do it because they can sell a shitload more tickets. But at the same time, it doesn't have,

the reader doesn't rock as much.

It's not as loud, you can't hear everything.

Jake, I mean, the press seats that they had,

you guys were, you know.

Oh, they, and simply in tournament is such bullshit. They basically take an entire half of the state of the first section and write by the court side and just give it to the press. Well, there's three rows center court. Yeah, that's ridiculous. For the elite press. Right.

So who get like, does any other event do that?

No. They don't do that for the NBA finals. No chance. No, they don't. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. All like the national publications get the center court ones and then everyone else gets the end zone. Well, the New York Times doesn't have a check mark, But anyway, so the upstairs, I will admit there was a few times memes can maybe chime in.

There was a few times where a shot was made and I didn't know if it was made or not and I just reacted off of the crowd. Like there was a couple of even swishes where I was like, did that go in? So it was kind of hard to see, but the vibes were great. Like when you get all the way up there, You're closer to God and you're with God's people because everyone up there's like, we had to get all the way were great. Like when you get all the way up there, you're with, you're closer

to God and you're with God's people because everyone up there is like, we had to get

all the way up here. It takes a lot. That means that Jim Nance was in hell. Yeah. Court side. He got a standing ovation from everybody. I want to hear. I want to hear Jokes. Yeah. He was pointing. He was, he was tipping his invisible hat to everybody the arena, we gave him a standing go, shout out Jim Nance, class personified.
