<div>I was also at that Final Four. In the consolation game, Iowa lost to
Purdue and Joe Barry Carroll. I think Louisville beat UCLA in the
championship.</div>

<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1428179957259_12017" dir="ltr">25 years ago I was fortunate to
be in the crowd for the Final Four game in Market Square Arena with the Hawkeyes
playing Louisville. It was a very good game with Ronnie Lester matching
basket for basket against Darryl Griffin. Then Ronnie landed awkwardly
driving to the bucket and reinjured his knee - The Hawks couldn't win without
him so they lost to the eventual champ. We also had tickets for the
consolation and championship games. After Iowa played in the first game -
and I don't remember whether they won or lost - we walked outside during the
break and sold our ticket stubs which gained entry to MSA for the championship
game for 4X their face value. We then walked to a nearby bar and enjoyed
numerous pitchers of beer while watching it on TV.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Lute Olson had Iowa flying high but the winters got to his wife so
they eventually ended up at Arizona. Lester never quite regained his
superb quickness so was just OK in the NBA. Jordan liked him which
probably didn't hurt to lengthen his career.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Have been to several other Final Fours since but nothing has
matched the excitement of seeing the Hawkeyes playing in it.</div>
