My Grandpa Kenny Kirby loved March Madness. He did not move from his chair from in front of the television, which all the games were televised on one station before cable television. Grandpa followed the games from early morning until late, late at night, which was past bedtime for this farmer.
Hoosier Hysteria was prevalent as Grandpa followed the Indiana schools and the Big Ten conference throughout the brackets. (Hoosier Hysteria is the state of excitement surrounding basketball in Indiana…) Love my memories of Grandpa Kenny!
Congratulations to the Indiana schools, which made the Big Dance: Indiana, Purdue, Valparaiso, Butler, and Notre Dame. And cheers to the two remaining Big Ten schools playing in the Final Four: Michigan State and Wisconsin.

I pulled out gold, green and white yarn and made the Green Bay Packers' hat collection as I watched the games. I will be keeping one for the NFL season, and the remainder will be donated to a warm for winter homeless project. A friend, who is a Packers' fan and grew up in Indiana with me will understand..."The game is on." And go Seahawks!
Today's Reflection: "The crowd goes wild. Who are you cheering on?"
