We need to get something together to show our recognition to Pat and the others in the AD for making everything right this morning by paying for a bus, our tickets, and bringing us breakfast this morning. I cannot say how good it was to see the excitements in the faces of my fellow students at 7:00 this morning when Ernie came by to bring us doughnuts, until the time when Megan announced that they would be picking up the tab on the tickets to say thank you to us. They have gone above and beyond to help all of us out, and I am glad to have been able to be a part of it. The future of thie Pit Crew looks very bright.
Thank You Pat!

I was thinking the same thing, something needs to be done to thank Pat. I am not one of the students who is going to Spokane, but I still think it is incredible what he has done.

I think something big should be done too, as this was a huge gesture. I only wish I has known about the tickets being free, I was planning to camp out but then decided not to because I could only go Sunday and didn't want to pay for Friday, oh well, that's what I get. Still major props to the AD and a department.

I think everyone would have camped out if they knew tickets would be free; great gesture by the Athletic Director, Coach Kent, and the whole Athletic Department. I plan on sending out a few thank you emails this afternoon for sure. I agree that the Athletic Department appears to be on the same page as the students, which is VERY encouraging to see.

I sent emails to ESPN, PTI, espn.com's page 2, CBS sportsline, and SIOC. Probably won't get anywhere, but who knows.

Depending on when the bus arrives, I think it would be cool to decorate it by acknowledging who paid for the trip. Not sure what we could do, but if anyone has a theme, go ahead and throw it out.

I posted a long thing about what he did on educk message boards, oregon live message board, 3 myspace boards, and facebook. The main story on educk.com is about Kilkenny and what he did.

I vote for a "we love pat" (i think he wanted us to call him pat...?) chant before the game on Friday, hopefully we can find him in the crowd.
