A lady in NC State fan wear walked into the Red River entrance as we were about to go up the escalator. She had a friendly face so I gave her a welcoming smile. She came up to me and said, "I just want you to know that I'm FROM Texas." My response was "I just want you to know that NC State is my favorite "other" WBB team.. I loved Kay Yow and I'm so glad they've gotten this guy, I think he's and EXCELLENT coach and I thought so when he was at Chattanooga.". She thanked me then told me that he was her brother. "We were raised in Dallas and he's a HUGE Longhorns, Rangers, and Cowboys fan." Then his wife came up and my friends and I chatted with them quite a bit (VERY nice people) then wished one another well and went on inside. As fate would have it, they ended up sitting at the end of our row across the aisle...about 5 seats away. After the game I said to them I'm just so sorry that the officiating was so horrible for both sides. They and the other fans around them were very appreciative of the gesture and we all agreed bth teams were hindered by all the whistles. Glad we pulled this one out in spite of it all.
