Even though I now live in La Rochelle, France, I lived in Lexington, Kentucky for more than 17 years and learned to love basketball because of the University of Kentucky Team. Previous to this time in my life, I had lived in Miami, Florida and grew up as a football fan and never watched much basketball.

Watching well played basketball in Kentucky changed my attitude and my appreciation of the sport. While living in Kentucky I was privileged to witness the 1996 and 1998 Kentucky teams win these College Basketball Championships. Of course there are always the up and down years but my enthusiasm for UK basketball has never waned. Go Kats !
