The last time App went to the tournament ______
Fill in the blank: The last time App went to the tournament ___________.
Think back to the year 2000. Could be a certain building on campus still existed. Could be you were a freshman. Could be Limp Bizkit had just released their second album “Significant Other”. Get creative. Wide open fun topic to celebrate the first NCAA tournament berth in 21 years

Re: The last time App went to the tournament ______
Someone that is a fan of Michigan State posted that the two times App State made it to the tournament that Michigan St won the tournament so they were glad to see us make it back.
This is my very generic signature added to each post.

The not-yet-finished Holmes Center was simply the Convocation Center, or sometimes the Complication Center.
(Not sure exactly when it was officially named, but you get the point.)

My life was so incredibly different, I won't even go into it.
App football was still 4 years from implementing the spread.

Re: The last time App went to the tournament ______
I was completing my last semester of course work for my MA at App and pondering applying for a job on campus to keep me there a little longer (finished undergrad in 97) since my now wife was still there as well as current brother in law. Ended up taking a job at Elon later that year, but only stayed 8 months. Burlington/Elon culture was not my cup of tea. I was a student at App during 3 of Buzz’s seasons, so enjoyed some good basketball. I used to walk down Pine Street, across from the campus sign, to classes when it still existed.
