Tyger in house. Sitting on

I assume you're talking about Tayson Parker.
He must be tired. His NW team won a tough game at Western Fri night, then last night they came from 10 down in the last minute to win by two at home against Mississinewa. Tayson had a terrible shooting night from the line & field.

He’s there with his teammate Isaiah somebody? I think he’s like a top 25 recruit.
between the connection and my phone things got a bit messed up. Kim pointed him out to me..and I must say she must listen to me more than I thought. I couldn't see his face, but his hair was a give away. Yes he was there with another and several of the boilers shook his hand. It is typical that the teams warm up on the offensive end which is almost always in front of the opposing teams and then the coaches have them on offense the second half and he and another were on the bench during warmups. Once the game started I have no idea where they went...but he can't hide with his hair...

They sat about 1/2 way up in the family section of the lower bowl.

I assume unofficial visitors are normally in that section, but do official visitors sit in the same place? For some reason, I can never find official visitors sitting in 111
I normally see offical visitors behind the Purdue bench...that is where evan boudreaux was
any chance you were teh person I was asking about the chairs and who got to sit there since they were not handicapped? That usher said the spots were full and he had to help a gentleman up a couple of steps and then take his walker and that guy couldn't get a seat in the area. This is a an area that gets my ire. Yesterday I watched a man using two canes go into Meijiers and just took my time and stayed behind him to see if he would need any help. I'm guessing the man was in his upper 50s to low 60s and was crippled and it seemed like it took him at least 10 minutes to go 15 feet and as he was about to enter I asked him if i could get an electric cart for him and took off to find one. They were all gone and I asked if a wheelchair would work and he said he would just wait. I kept close and he must havbe decided he needed a place to sit and headed to a wheelchair. I went over and got it for him and helped him into it and he said thank you for your kindness. I left him and did what I needed to do and it wasn't 2 minutes and there it was...a person in the electric cart with processed foods and heavy enough she didn't WANT to walk...while he couldn't. Way too many people abusing the handicap things because they are easier. Sorry for my rant but this is an area that gets abused too often and those that need help sometimes can't get it. Too many people wanting a handout and many of the older people never ever wanted to be a burden or not earn their keep...
Just as big of an issue is the failure of the store to keep the scooters charged. Needed one a couple times a year ago while rehabbing a new hip. Nothing more rewarding than to be in the back of WallyWorld by yourself and the scooter goes dead.
Reminds me of the Wally World Rumble in Beech Grove. The fat chick exploded out of that electric cart so fast it made my head spin.
My husband has been after me for years to get handicap sticker and status with my back issues ... and even a temporary one this month because of the two implant surgeries. He laughs and says it's my ego but really just a matter of believing there are those that need kind of status so much worse. Galls me to seeing people riding in those scooters just because they are too lazy to walk. Told him I may be slow these days but I'll get around the grocery store on "my" schedule...(as long as there's not a Purdue game that day...)
First off good on you for helping that man out.
Second, anyone needing one of those scooters should be required to provide their handicap sticker/registration or something to use it in the first place. There have been more than enough times I have followed a large family in that were walking just fine, only to see the 15 year old overweight kid get in a scooter.
Put down the salty snacks, get some exercise and stop leeching off of society.
Just like everything else in today’s world. It is much easier for Mgmt and/or a Process Owner to turn their head and not deal with those that abuse a privilege, rather than ensure those that truly have the need are taken care of. Our country is full of folks that abuse privileges not intended for them and people that are frustrated and resentful that those people continue to get away with this abuse.
you know I saw an elderly lady about a year ago not use a handicap parking spot at the same store (she had the hanging sign), but parked a bit down and then get out with her cane and walk into the same store. It was obvious to me that she thought there might be another worse off and went a bit farther.
While I'm on it...just because a person has an IU license plate doesn't mean they can park there either. It is about being physically handicapped...

I've told Kim many times that when I retire I'm considering creating a site and actually spend time taking video of people that really are not handicapped and posting them, their car license on the net for all to see. It is time the dunce hats come back!
As an aside...growing up my mother was a beautician and I remember her always having “change” on her table where she did hair. Probably around my junior high or early high school years I asked her why she had change and she told me that some of the ladies could only pay a quarter or fifty cents. Course she remembered the depression when she only got an orange for Christmas growing up in a household where her grandfather had previously been VERY wealthy, but chose to let the people have their money and absorb all the debt from his bank before losing so much. People wanted to be self-reliant and were prideful…

I am so glad you people are able to diagnose people's disabilities from across a parking lot. I am certain you would have saved my sister a ton of co-pays and time if you had just hung out a shingle and gone into medical practice rather than doing your self-righteous medical analysis in the wal-mart parking lot. Rather than be like the idiot who broke the windshield wipers off of my sister's car and screamed obscenities at her because she did not look "sick enough" to use handicapped parking many of you might do well to remember there are a host of hidden medical conditions that are bad enough to warrant using those spots. You have to trust that they have a handicapped parking sticker for a reason. Take a step back people.
when I see people without air, without canes and running faster than me to get in the store or to only be WAYYYYYYY overweight with carts filled with process foods it is pretty obvious they chose their condition. AT no place in no thread did anyone suggest that all people were abusing handicap parking. I assume and maybe I'm wrong because you wrote what you did that that you would prefer that more opportunity for those that need help could get it, but perhaps I'm wrong? In EVERY situation you can always point out how it doesn't work for all.
Yeah it already sucks enough to use those stupid slow things let alone get the looks. The worst are the ones that expect you to accomodate them because they are old and more deserving. like yes on the outside I look fine but I can assure you than on the inside I got plenty of metal.
BTW...having a doctor in the family I can assure you that MOST of his patients have issues from over eating...their choice
I am going to offer my expert medical opinion that this female in the cart doesn’t have a “hidden medical condition”.
I am not calling you out specifically TJ. I know that people abuse the parking and the electric carts. I have just seen the other side because of my sister. I am just against the blind hatred unthinking people sometimes display. Mob mentality is dangerous.
And with that I am done. This is not the forum for this discussion. This is a basketball forum.
It is a bit surprising to me that someone would take a comment that should be favorable to his sister's plight and somehow feel that since his or her sister has felt grief that somehow the general comments are not accurate. Look at the proliferation and you know something is awry. Just stop and compare a video from the 70s to now and you can witness how much larger people are today...or ASK a doctor about bad knees, and the many conditions that are the direct result of eating habits.
I'm diabetic and yearly have to go on a diet to keep my blood sugar down and in no way would most say I was too heavy. My feelings are for the plight of those that are truly handicapped, not for those that choose to be that way...
mob mentality is dangerous...but my post was about helping one in need that really needed it...and there were not carts for him due to others choosing not to walk. All of this is general statements because we can always find people that don't fit into the examples
During the first Mackey reseating in 2011, Purdue required people to sign a document stating that they were ordering handicap seating for someone who needed it. For the second reseating in 2016, that requirement was eliminated.
There are always exceptions and hidden illnesses ! There are many causes for obesity besides just choice! And yes there are many who abuse the privileges making you sceptical of others! It is best not to judge others.
You do understand that it is the people who actually need the handicap spots who are being defended here? To equate someone who vandalizes a car with someone being critical of lazy people taking spots away from handicapped people is childish. And it does a disservice to your sister.
Going back to the actual thread topic.... a prominent AAU coach on another board was expressing that Tyger might not be as talented as his ranking shows. The AAU coach said he believes Tyger would be a good player for a Mid-Major team at the top of their conference standings. He also said Tyger could play in the Big Ten, but that he thought he could only play for a bottom feeder team.
I have only seen Tyger play one game (New Castle Fieldhouse last year), and I thought he was pretty good. Thoughts?
