I'm attending my first UT basketball game in person Wesnesday in Columbia I've been to several football games but never made it for basketball until now and I'm trying to plan accordingly.

What's a safe get there time if I want to watch shoot around, current plan is leave Charleston at 4 and get there ideally around 6. I've seen videos of DK interacting with fans at home after the game, do they come back out on of the road as well? I've got a DK and Vescovi card I would love to get signed for the collection.

I have a conference in Charleston this week and was kicking around the idea of going…where did you get your tickets?

I went through Ticketmaster about 3 weeks ago and found one on the visitors side for reasonable price. I've lived in Charleston for 3 years now and only just now had the idea to go up there

They don't give you a lot of time in Columbia; TBA is 1.5 hours before tip.
Since DM's were removed a while back, I had no other way to ask you a question. Hate doing this in a regular forum, but see no other way. Quickly, what's your opinion on spinal cord stimulators? I've read several negative stories and noted the lawsuits. I've also found positive outcomes from the manufacturers postings/sites. Then there are numerous individuals who didn't fare so well. Last resort or worth the shot? Would you do it if you were in need?

Personally, I would plan on being there one and one-half hours early. That way you will catch guys coming out little by little working on their shots. Ultimately, the whole team will be out there together, but not sure what the timeframe is. TBA opens one and one-half hours before the game starts and Colonial Life might be the same. Enjoy!

I‘ve had one for17 months now and I think they are miraculous. Reduced my back pain about 65% and with taking Xstampza (12 hr pain pill) twice a day I function fairly well. I will say that the first week after the implant the pain was excruciating (and I think that is why folks give up) but after that you don’t even notice it’s there. I’d be happy to give you my email if you’d like to discuss. Good luck

My son and I have been gone to the SC game for four years now. For the last three years my son has taken pictures with the guys after the game. They come on the floor and greet people after they leave the locker-room. Just be aware of the SC security people asking if you have on a wristband. We just ignore them, lol.

Like anything they help some people and some they don't. Over the years I've had a couple of patients that had them. One person said that it definitely took the edge off of his chronic pain; he definitely would recommend it. I had another patient years ago that had one disconnected; it was left in. A guy who I went to college with who is a chiropractor was having one implanted. He said the pain was unbearable; so he made them stop before they finished, and he cussed out the Dr. Not sure if that helps you, but that's my experience.
