Dayton's victory did lead to an interesting dinner for my cousin's 19th bday today. Of my grandparent's 7 kids, 4 went to Dayton and all 4 married classmates they started dating while at dayton. of the Grandkids, 8 have gone to dayton. Then there are other family members who grew up supporting dayton due to family ties. Then as far as X support, we have about 12 of us. We are outnumbered 2 to 1 though. UD vs X rivalry has always been very heated within our family. When everyone showed up at Marion's in Mason today for the birthday dinner, all the Dayton fans had all their dayton gear on. Everything was going fine until i loudly asked them what they thought of the fact that now the A-10 championship was basicly a participation trouphy since everyone got a share of it....... I thought it was funny until i had a slice of pizza hit me in the side of the face thrown by one of my dayton aunts.
Well, glad to hear the rivalry has cooled down a bit!
I don't know if this is true or not, but I really hope that it is. The idea of a grown man's aunt throwing a slice of pizza at him is really funny!
