Do you have a Twitter account? C’mon, I know you are one of the 750,000 people following Coach Calipari. We just recently created a twibbon for you to show your support of Rupp Arena. For those who don’t know, a twibbon is an icon, logo, color or a variety of other things that can be added to your profile picture on Twitter to show your support for something. In our case, it’s the Rupp Arena logo, on top of a blue fade from the bottom. Show your support by clicking on “support this” below and add your name to the list of our supporters!

Scarefest starts today at the Lexington Center. We went down and did a quick walk through of the exhibit hall before it opened up and took the camera with us. Check out the video below (click here to watch in high definition) to see a quick rundown of the setup from this year. For more information on Scarefest, visit their website by CLICKING HERE.

Congratulations to Caroline Nuss, who is our winner for the Jonas Brothers banner giveaway. Thanks so much to everyone who entered! I really enjoyed checking out the concert from so many view points by looking at all the fan photos. In addition, MANY of you tagged yourself in our photos we took at the show. Many of the shots (like the one above) have nearly 25 people tagged in them, who traveled from all over the region to come to the concert. It’s pretty cool to look through and see all the people tagged throughout the crowd. Since I am feeling pretty guilty that there could be only one winner, I have decided to make the PDF file [of the banner] available for anyone to download.

You can print it out on your printer at home, or if you want to print your very own banner, you could take that file to a printing shop and have one made. Enjoy, and congrats again to Caroline Nuss!
