I’ve watched Ocean’s Eleven hundreds of times in my life (both the original with the Rat Pack and the more recent, yet equally star-studded, blockbuster). I’ve seen gangster movies and heist films galore, and I always wish I could be right in the action. The exhilaration the actors feel when they handle their silver briefcases filled with $1,000,000 cash is PALPABLE.
I’ve always wondered what it would be like to hold a substantial amount of cash in my hands all at once. Today, that has all changed.
In the Dean’s Office this morning, Dean Elmore, Dan, Kat, Faba, and I were busy stuffing a sleek silver briefcase with a cool $1,000 in freshly printed dollar bills, soon to be given away at the first Men’s Basketball game of the year.
The game is Wednesday, November 17th, at 7 pm in Agganis Arena. I can’t tell you how or when the money will be given out, but all you can do is follow Dean Elmore on Twitter (@DeanElmore) for more information. Bring your friends for what looks to be an incredible game between our Terriers and the George Washington University.
While you’re there, Dean Elmore will keep you updated on details for the cash giveaway and if you pay attention, you may be lucky enough to walk away from the basketball game $1,000 richer.
Good luck!
