The basketball excitement of the 50s and 60s, in eastern Kentucky, was amazing. I was so blessed to live there. I love the sport to this day. Most of us, now follow the Kentucky Wildcats year after year. The euphoric victories peppered with humbling losses, keep us happily anticipating, just as we did in our high school memories. Basketball is the greatest!

This made me cry. I live in Wayland, and I thought that it was a town that was nothing, but now I know that it's actually something. Think you for this.

Says the hippie John Denver disciple

Kentucky's peculiar setup allowed for a small school to have a reasonable chance to win, and I am fascinated with that. I read a story about Cuba and how they won the state in - I think, 1952. That is such an amazing achievement. Indiana, conversely, had very few small schools even make the finals. Milan was the last one to win it 1954.

Carr Creek did a great job to win it all. Shows how great King Kelly was when he scores 28 and a guy says “I stopped his butt”. I guess anything short of 50 points was a good day for the defense against him.
