Never change, Pavilion, so I don’t have to

“The Pavilion is a piece of crap.” How many times have you heard that sentence (or some variation with more or less expletives) around campus? I’ll set the over-under at 1K, and that’s generous.

Naturally, then, when I heard this Saturday’s game was the last at the Pavilion, I jumped for joy. Thank God, I thought, they’ll finally tear that piece of junk to the ground and get a real stadium with real seating instead of bleachers, for Christsake. Enough, already, of this “arena” which was meant for wrestling, not basketball. I mean, come on, the place looks more like the Smurfs’ house than an NBA arena.
