    I remember feeling so lucky to be there that day. As a student at the time, we were all trying to get tickets to it.

    People were crying all around me. Such an amazing moment. Wilt will be forever be seen as the greatest player in KU history, hands down.

    Wilt certainly wasn’t feeling well at this point. he had congestive heart failure and was in need of a pacemaker, which he kept putting off. having said that, after the game, big Wilt signed autographs for hours while sitting under the basket at a table. he continued until everyone got a chance to meet him. He signed a basketball for me which I will always treasure. He was the Babe Ruth of Basketball.

    The man who made me a JAYHAWK fan for life. Wilt the Stilt! I came to Kansas City from Holly Springs, Mississippi at 5 years of age ironically the day Allen Field House opened. Thanks Wilt for the memories. Rock Chalk Jayhawk!!!!!!

    Pete Maravich is the best to ever play college basketball. The guy is very underrated. Infact Maravich averaged 45 points in one season (without 3 point lines) with 3 point line they say he could have got 60 points a game.

    It’s funny when you watch the players in the NBA today. They get all cocky when they score 20 points and grab 10 rebounds in a game. Not one of them could carry Wilt’s shoes!!!
