National Marquette Day for Austin was different this year. The nice coordinating lady Annette booked us to meet at the relatively new Geno’s East on Sixth Street. Nice. Southside Chicago-style deep-dish pizza without the chain-smoking, obnoxious accent and dictator who somehow has the title of mayor.
We lost of course to the number one team in the nation…Villanova. Didn’t matter. I was glad to meet some other fellow alumni including a gentleman who just finished up at UT and he will be teaching corporate communications at my alma mater‘s division! May he not regret the weather! Austin around this time of year is hard to forget when you’re still freezing your butt off in April.
