We were the first...okay second people in Scarlet yesterday. Had a great tailgate blah blah blah. Once lots are packed and people are everywhere we're all playing flip cup and this dude is just staring and watching with his college aged daughter, watching us having fun talking, TVs on under the tents, catered food, our ice luge ,just taking it all in and asking how the game works that we were playing. Guy was so tall I was calling him Wilt Chamberlain. We talked him into playing with us. I had Wilt come next to me, we played a few rounds he thanked us and that was that.

I come to learn the guy donated $3M to hoops recently. Not an RU alum. He was blown away by the atmosphere how welcoming people were etc. Wants his daughter to transfer to RU.

You never know who someone is. Even if the guy was wearing a Washington jersey we would have let him play and have fun.
