Spoiler alert?
Cats Illustrated’s T.J. Walker tweeted this picture out this morning…could today’s celebration also include hanging the banner?
Chills.
UPDATE: General public tickets for today’s celebration are now SOLD OUT. Some student tickets still remain.
88 Comments for Spoiler alert?
that would be awesome but shouldnt that be held for big blue madness?
8th
I say if its there, lets go ahead and hang it. Been waiting too long!
No they should hang it today. I remember them hanging the banner during the 98 celebration and not midnight madness.
Don’t let the banner hit the ground!!! lol
If I remember correctly, they hung the 96 and 98 banners during the celebrations when the team got back, so they’ll probably hang this one today. And to be honest, waiting for October to hang that beautiful piece of fabric might kill me.
does anybody know if there are any tickets still available for today’s “celebration”?
Great Banner…..But who’s the little HOTTIE on the right?
explains why they aren’t holding it in commonwealth…
Is Kentucky the greatest program ever? http://wp.me/p2bjjs-zy
get the banner off the ground you goofs!
Haters gon’ hate.
At least we’re not a bunch of thugs knocking over convenience stores and stealing hygiene products from the local supermarkets.
Oh yeah, we alaso have a new National Title (which is completely legitimate and will NOT be vacated, no matter how much the Tards fans cry).
Hope they use velcro to attach that banner…
Ahhhhhh you know we’ve made it back because of people like 13’s statement.

#14: you are an idiot. Know why? You are SOOOOOO sure of yourself with your statement. However, if your statement is never proven to be useful, you would NOT come back to say you were wrong. Idiot. Thank you.
Three titles since Louisville won one in the pre-three point line era. Not bad.
How’s Indiana’s jayvee squad doing right now, Truth?
Well cal did say in one of his tweets lets hang a banner today.
14…jealousy will eat out your colon. continue on..

10. proof read.
With that being said, who’s on your all time UK team?
I live in London Ky. Every day this Knoxville radio guy, Russell, on FM 100.3 WNOX. Google it theres a stream and a phone #. He has a Volunteer radio show that comes way up into Ky and absolutely dogs the Cats and Cal daily. His show runs from 3-6 pm on weekdays. You can see and hear it on the radio stations websit WNOX.com. We all ought to call and hammer him today.
No it’s always hanged at BBM did they have it made already or it was a rush, 😉
No, it was hung at the celebration.
22) Let’s vote this way to keep UK #1:

In related news, VACATE
hahahaha! UK is the greatest of all time and it must suck balls to be watching us be the best. #1 of all time and indiana and ul has to watch us celebrate. you ass hats! hahaha
Not sure about 98, but wasn’t the 96 celebration in Memorial? They hung the banner there and then the one in Rupp at BBM.
29: And UNC, and UCLA, and Kansas, and Duke, and Florida, and UConn, and Syracuse…
Cal is gonna vacate that banner like I vacated my johnson from a waitress at an Italian restaurant.
Looks Great, The trophy needs to stay in the blue grass from now on…. Shout out to the past winners #ThanksForHoldingIt
Congrats to the Kansas Jayhawks on the 2012 National Title when Coach Cal has to VACATE this in a few years.
27. I put the UNC teams at the bottom, but yeah, pretty much.
Cards fans are such losers.
The UK Athletics facebook page announced last night (right after the game) that the banner would be hung at the celebration today. So no, a “spoiler alert” is not necessary.
9 months and done, just like meeeee
They should hang it today so the guys that won it gets to be there to see it happen.
Three years, an elite 8, a final 4, NATIONAL CHAMPIONS. Nation wide respect
from every news source and general public that marvel at the talent and more so the unselfish team play. Love and trust for eachother, coaching staff and UK
and the fans. Nothing but superior positives for Coach Cal staff and players.
But wait, there is one place in the universe that is not fooled by the evil spell of deceit comimg from Satanpari. This beacon and protector of all that is uncorrupted and pure knows that Suks minor Nba league is cheating, buying players, ncaa oficials, cant coach, should have lost to them in a fair world,
With 19 year e that don’t go to class,
Hang it tonight, most the guys that earned it won’t be around next year. They deserve that moment.
31- them too
34- wah wah wah- you gonna cry little baby. awww poor little baby cakes all teary eyed- here’s some kleenex and a tampon you cry baby loser
40 is a loser.
For all of you asshats that are talking about this banner being vacated, know this the NCAA DOES NOT mess with Championship winning coaches too much. Ask bill self who in 2008 used an ineligible player (Darrel Arthur) but won the title so nothing ever happened. Ask Beheim and Calhoun who have both been in trouble, but nothing really happened to them. Ask Coach K about Corey Maggette, the NCAA says that investigation is ongoing even after all parties involved have admitted to cheating. So now Cal has joined the club and really has no worries. So your dreams of having this title taken away will NEVER HAPPEN.
Premature submission

Read and remember not to ever, ever to be like them
43- I love it. Hater’s biggest scare came true. You pussies have to watch us dominate from here on. How’s our ass taste??????
asdlhil; cd jkdXS
The banner will look better at Calipari’s Hall of Cheat after he VACATES.
50 That is great! Love it.
They see us rollin……they hatin!!!!!!!
VACATERS GON VACATE
It’s about 1:15 pm. I think the UofLoserville fans should be heading back to their fingerpainting classes soon.
If I wasn’t so miserable last night KU would’ve easily won. But we’ll gladly take the title in a few years after the vacate.
lol @ all the haters. Yeah, I’d be pretty mad too if I were a Louisville or Indiana fan right now. So mad, I’d go on the internet and troll from my mom’s basement.
It is pretty amazing though, I had no idea enough people even cared about U of L or IU basketball to troll anyone.
29, you never fail me my friend. Always a good comeback.
All you nay sayers, all I can tell you is that years will come and go, players will come and go, but you guys will still be in the basement that your miserable lives has brought you to be the person that you are today. You don’t want other folks to be happy so you try to rain on everyone’s parade. Go ahead, if it makes you feel better about yourself. So read all the comments, comb your Mohawk and spike it well, because you’ll be at the drive up window taking orders from UK fans at white castle. Or Taco Bell or where ever your diploma from your college of choice brought you.
I will enjoy this title before it’s definitely vacated.
59- hahahaha! cheers!
Qantas never crashed.
34 – Who is Paul Pierce?
Somewhere today, Peyton Siva’s dad is still crying…
The banner is currently hanging in Rupp.
I wish my son had gone to UK for a good education and better starting salary playing for Coach Cal.
Haters don’t really hate you, they hate themselves, because you’re a reflection of what they wish to be. #realtalk
Whats with all the Trolls. Its too bad that you haters are wrapped up with so much envy that you wish bad things upon a legit team that won it all fair and square. Dream your little vacate dreams all you want, UK is the National Champion and will always be the 2012 National Champion.
it was made this morning. My girlfriends mom made it, so it wasn’t pre made. that wouldve been a jinx
I can’t wait for Thunder over Louisville, when all the UofSmell fans have to sit and watch as they fly the UK banner during the show, just like in ’98 and ’96, and ’86.
Oh what? They didn’t have Thunder in ’86? And so they’ve never been able to fly a giant UofL banner during the show?
So sad.
DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT BE MAD AT THE HATERS!!! THEY ARE VALIDATING US AS A SUPERIOR PROGRAM. HATE IS THE SINCEREST FORM OF FLATTERY, NOT IMITATION. SO LET THE JAWS THAT ARE HELD TOGETHER BY LINE BEARDS AND THE BRAINS COVERED BY FLAT BILLS HAVE THERE SAY AND CONTRIBUTE TO OUR HAPPINESS AND PROVE THAT OUR RIVALS ARE INFERIOR.
All you haters… I say prove your statement. What you say is a hope and a prayer. Coach Cal has never personally been convicted of any wrong doing. I dare say that Coach Cal runs the CLEANEST program in the country. With all the microscopes on him and all the trolls digging into everything he touches, he has to run the cleanest program.
This makes me so happy I could cry!
#69 – Nice try girl…..
Come on mods, ban this kid’s IP address (you know, ##14, 28, 34, 40, 43, 45, 47, 51, 54, 56, 58, 60, 66, 67 and probably 10 more by the time I post this). It screws up the thread. This kid spends an odd amount of time on a UK fan site. Sad. But I can’t hate. Not on a day like today.
Need 2, need 2….
65.. that’s not all your girlfriend’s mom did this morning! (Sorry… just had to do that, you left it ripe for the taking)
jealousy and bitterness make you look fat. move along, maybe your team can learn from this years Cats and get better. or not. enjoy your sad life.
72: Not all those posts are by the same person. You trying to get UK fans banned too? Let the little troll post. I find him to be hilarious.
H8ers gon H8 amirite?
Kansas fans were complaining about the officiating. HA!
they were also complaining about all our NBA talent. not our fault you can’t close on guys like shabazz and goodwin…and you land bums like Selby and Henry.
get on our level.
Eight feels Great,so nice we gotta do it twice, and oh boy Nine will be so damn Fine!!! Damn it feels good to be a CAT FAN!! Let the hate keep coming it’s only adding to the joy of celebrating good luck knocking us off the hill pee-ons cause the BBN is back on top looking down at you!!
To all you trolls and hates I say simply “FCK U”. If you were smart, we know you’re not, you’d do some real work and see if you have any proof to back up your “opinions”. Search Marcus Camby and you’ll find an extensive SI article on Camby and what happened. Guess what, Coach Cal wasn’t involved. You’ll also find a letter from the NCAA president that clears Cal of any wrong doing. Go to Derrick Rose and you’ll find several major colleges were after him AFTER he took his ACT test. He was cleared to play by the NCAA, any coach in America would have played him after that. If anyone has any proof that Cal and UK are doing anything wrong, I’m sure there are only about 1,000 reporters out there that would love to help you. So press on you fools we’ll just continue to rein supreme in college basketball.
Sorry for all the troll posts. Congrats to the Cats and their amazing season. Going back under the bridge now until next season.
– Troll
H8ERS gonna H8 !
My bad, Kansas fans, but Kentucky was just too good.
Any online streaming options for the Rupp festivities? Some of us are stuck at work.
#83 I think UK athletics has a live stream. I am sure KSR will keep us updated on anyother site.
Any major affiliates carrying the celebration other than Lex channels.
NO 1 is Greater…classic…celebrate well Kentucky…let the HOOP-La reign
did anybody else get the subterfuge dig at Knight by Calipari saying he wanted to go undefeated…40-0..because it’s never been done…remember…Indiana (coached by Knight) played 8 games fewer in 76…can’t wait for that time when coach Cal goes undefeated and Knight and Calipari become historically linked…hahaha…go Cats
Best place to hide the NCAA championship banner.
No one would think to look in Commonwealth Stadium!
Sneaky sneaky!
Way to go blue!!!
