Message: [QUOTE="OttosBestFriend, post: 1742203, member: 852"] I was a St. John's fan when Pearl played for the 'Cuse, but he was a huge part of why I elected to attend SU. Starting in '83, my cousin, brother, dad and I attended all of St. John's games at MSG - and some at Alumni Hall - during the Redmen's heyday. Every time 'Cuse came to town, the Garden was that much louder with throngs of orange-clad crazies going nuts for Pearl and company. Those mid-80s 'Cuse teams were so much fun to watch - even as a SJU fan - and I remember thinking to myself as a kid, "if the Orange fans are this much fun here, it must be insane at the Dome." So when it was time to pick a college, SU was my first choice and there really wasn't a close second. [/QUOTE]
