UCF home opener is Tacko Fall tall tale to remember

If you were there Wednesday night, you literally have a tall tale you can tell your grandchildren about.

You saw something nobody in the world as ever seen and perhaps will ever see again.

You saw, arguably, the biggest matchup not only in basketball history, but in Planet Earth history.

Step aside you miserable Philadelphia 76ers and make way for the memorable Orlando 7-foot-6ers: UCF's Tacko Fall and UC Irvine's Mamadou Ndiaye — two 7-foot-6 centers — going eye to eye on the basketball court in front of thousands who watched in wide-eyed wonderment.
