Ignoring the challenges of ever bringing it back, I'm glad we had Xavier football when I went.
Was a great way to spend a Saturday with a date from OLC or the Mount.
Post-game at Dana's. Sleep late Sunday...back to Dana's Sunday afternoon to dance on the tables upstairs.

Good times.

The next time we run into each other at Dana‘s, I will buy you drinks for the rest of the day if you promise to get up on a table and dance again! That’s something that I would like to see.

Be sure to post the date and time here! That should be quality entertainment!

I mentioned it once to BJ, reminiscing.
He said "fuggetaboutit."

A couple of extra shots of schnapps, and a small bribe to BJ, and we will set Paul up to dance on the hood of his car in the parking lot.

I didn't realize that it would bring in a hoard of thirsty customers.

I think you have a serious Pay-Per-View opportunity here! Where do I sign up?!?

And our wedding day was the same date 50 years ago.
Xavier beat Toledo, where my wife’s brother went.
Not only did I gain a bride, I also gained $100.
A pretty, pretty good day.
