President James Ramsey needed to get to the stadium to do some media--interviews with some of the Louisville TV stations down in Florida for the game. Because I was with John Drees, the university's head PR official, I got to hitch a ride with the president's convoy to the stadium. Before I knew it, I was in the back seat of a police SUV driven by UofL officer Robert "Bubba" Bringhurst with officer John Tarter in the passenger seat. These guys clearly have an Abbott and Costello-type relationship. They're so funny. When Bubba accidentally locked Tarter out, Tarter said, "Bubba, I really wish you would stop pressing buttons!"
