Again, this is a man who gets it.
Milwaukee isn’t that far of a drive.
So what’s he do?
Offer to pay for gas for any Kentucky fan to get up there.
You see, Kentucky fans or fans in general, will take advantage of this.
We got a college kid in Florida trying to get up to Milwaukee.
We have A LOT of people in the mountains of Kentucky ready for the trip.
You wanted an army to arrive?
Well, pay up, pal.
I love the move though.
I love it from all involved.
Mark Pope can afford to pay for a few thousand people’s gas.
That whole arena is going to be going against Kentucky except for us in blue.
Of course Kentucky fans were going to reach out to Mark Pope.
Come on, this was a no-brainer.
It’s part of the reason I love this fanbase.
You hear free gas, they come running.
These people will do anything to watch Kentucky play basketball.
It’s probably easier to get a ticket in Milwaukee than Rupp, so get them up there.
These are the fans we need backing the boys on a neutral court.
Get the credit card out, Coach Pope.
This is a smart data decision.
