Message: [QUOTE="cto, post: 4667472, member: 412"] Basketball game at Michigan State near end of the 2003 regular season was a very important game for SU. I was in Havana with a group of SU people, and we were all interested in the game. US cellphones did not work in Cuba at the time (and still may not), but I had rented a monstrous Cuban cellphone from the hotel (it was the size of a large Kleenex box). A bunch of us gathered in the lobby of the historic Hotel Nacional de Cuba, and I called Fishy (UConn fan and close friend) on the phone. Fishy was watching the game on tv in Poughkeepsie, and he gave me the play-by-play which I relayed to the SU folks there. Our crazy cheering at the end puzzled everyone else in the lobby. Upon checking out of the hotel, I got a $362 bill for the call. But it was worth it. [/QUOTE]
