iPhone picture of tipoff - notice all the empty good seats - they have been sold but many fans buy season tickets and stay home. That does not look good for a team that has won 7 games in a row. FSU is a football school.Lulu and I just got back from the game. It was close the whole way including a missed 3 as the buzzer went off. Noles led the whole way except for a few seconds in the second half. Noles led by as many as 13 but Virginia had one last run in them - putting up a shot at the buzzer that could have tied it up.
The Noles have won 7 league games in a row after losing their first one by 20 points at Clemson. Since then - they have beaten 3 top 20 teams - first Carolina (number 2) - then Duke (number 3) and now UVA (number 16). Virginia had only lost 3 games up to this point - add one more.
Lulu and I left our house at about 12:15 on the Vespa. We walked to our favorite "begging" spot and I put two fingers in the air. A lady cop decided to tell me to go to the street. Just as she said something - and I reminded her that it is legal to buy and sell tickets in Florida - a guy walked up to us and gave us two free tickets. I asked the cop if it was okay that I took them :-)
The tickets were near half court - about 10 rows up. We sat with the two nice guys that gave us the tickets. They said they never sell their tickets but give them away to good Seminole fans. Lulu's bright yellow Hawaiian Seminole shirt got their attention.
