I'm not much of a basketball fan, but my brother lent me his season tickets for the DePaul game and my oldest daughter and I attended. We watched the Blue Demons rout the California Golden Bears 90-62 at the Allstate Arena. This game completed DePaul's West Coast swing, the Demons having previously beaten the UC-Irvine Anteaters (I am not making that up).

The Bears outplayed the Demons in the first half, but two spectacular alley oop slams by Wilson Chandler combined with tough defense allowed the Blue Demons to pull away after the half.

For those of the Fish Head's vast readership not familiar with the university, DePaul is the largest Catholic university in the country and has a storied basketball history including many years with the legendary Ray Meyer as head coach. More importantly, the Fish Head, both the Fish Head's brothers, and the Fish Head's father, are all alumni of this esteemed Chicago institution.
