Saw this article on the NCAA site and they even have a picture of our home at the fieldhouse! Pretty cool, just too bad we lost that game - but still a part of history that belongs to us!
I was there with my wife. She was 7 months pregnant and after the 4th OT she was ready to go. I said we're not leaving, we're seeing history. The 5th OT someone must have scored early. Buy this time I'd say a third to half the people had left. Knowing who ever had the ball was going to stall and take the last shot. We was in section J with a lot of empty seats, so I laid down on the bleacher, and told her to wake me up with 30 seconds to go. Ha - I can still remember the winning shot, a15 footer from the left wing. It was an exciting and booorrring at the same time. I'm glad I saw history, but sad BU lost.
Sure hope we get this season in. We have so much talent. Maybe the most since the Chet Walker days.
GO BU
I was there with my dad that night. If memory serves me right I believe games didn’t tip-off until 8 at that time. My dad was ready to go after the sixth overtime but I talked him into staying. Got home after midnight...Definitely was a lot of fun
Told a guy from work at Cat that I’d give him a ride back to his car in East Peoria after the game. Made it a long night going from the Fieldhouse to East Peoria and then back to West Peoria.
I'm a new member of this Board but I'm a Long time B.U. fan as I am almost 78 years old. I had 2 season tics so I was at this game with my 11 year old son and yes we stayed until it was over! Even though we lost, it was Great!! Loved Robertson Fieldhouse and those days! I am really looking forward to this next season!
Dawgs! Welcome indeed! Great to have a legacy fan on the boards! Don't be a stranger and add your comments as often as possible! Especially anything to do with BU history!

I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.
Well Tommy, this may blow your mind---I talked my Dad into 2 season tickets in 1957! I have many memories of all those seasons!The Braves mean so much to me! BTW--I graduated from B.U. too.

Nice! Season ticket holder since '57 then? That's outstanding!
We'll have to look each other up at Carver this season once we start playing!
