I was in the Dominican Republic for the 1985 NCAA Championship game and remember it well as it was the first time I'd really gotten into rooting for a college team throughout the tournament. Believe it or not, I was all over Villanova that season and they were my pick for the championship. I was on vacation with a friend in the DR and we watched the perfect game unfold for the Wildcats. It was great. Rollie was quite a character and it was compelling to watch him throughout that tournament. I don't think I was ever as invested in March Madness either before or after. And I loved it when the C's got Ed Pinckney.

I was a bit too young, didn't start following basketball til 2-3 years later. Really need to sit down and watch "the perfect game" some day, we'll probably need to duplicate it to get past the Warriors :D
