University of Louisville News & Perspectives
The Cardinal Bird flies high in the KFC Yum! Center to begin the Louisville Live celebration (Mike DeZarn photo).
Another Louisville Live hype session, celebrating the beginning of another University of Louisville basketball season. Pull out the stops and the stage props, turn up the sound, cue the rock music, turn on the mic and just go nuts.
That seems to be the order of the day at these events. Oh, and play a little three-on-three basketball, throw in a dunk contest and some 3-pointer competitiveness.
Fun night, anyway, for the approximately 7,400 Cardinal diehards at the KFC Yum! Center on Friday.
