I don&#8217;t know if I can go to one of these things.  Over the years of attending classes at WSU, I&#8217;ve learned to loathe basketball fans because they take up precious parking space on campus.  They are the reason that I have to walk several miles to class on game nights.  They are the reason for the blisters on my feet.  They are the reason that I arrive in class not just late but grumpy as well.<\/p>\n<p>I think it&#8217;s funny that come May, after I graduate, I&#8217;ll be on the other side of the fence.  No longer will I have to attend classes.  Instead, I&#8217;ll be attending games (if I can drag Brian to some) in support of my alma mater.  As the world turns&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, here&#8217;s the scoop on the watch parties this month:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Come out and show your Shocker colors during the month of January as WSU men\u2019s basketball travels to Bradley, Missouri State, Illinois State and Southern Illinois.
