Bleeding Blue...Duke Blue...

College basketball is by far my favorite sport of all time. My favorite teams are the Florida State Seminoles and the Duke Blue Devils. Yes, I realize they are both in the same conference (ACC). This is because I am currently a student at FSU, while I have always been a hardcore Duke basketball fan. I have been both a basketball fan and player since I was about eight. Despite this fact, I didn't go to my first college basketball game until I was about thirteen years old.

For about five years I lived in Virginia. This means I am very close to Maryland. This also means that I am very close to the University of Maryland, if you catch my drift. If you're a Duke basketball fan, you know where I'm going with this. Rivalry. After North Carolina, Maryland is Public Enemy No.2. 

My mom drove us there, and I couldn't have been more thrilled as we pulled onto the campus. Thousands of drunk Maryland fans huddled into the stadium. I think they decided to get this drunk to ease the pain after the beat down that was about to ensue. I knew I was in for one of the best times of my life.
