The Blue III (Trip) sensation is upon us. Although the hype isn’t as big as Linsanity in New York, Trip certainly is making headlines within the Indianapolis metropolitan area. Just a few weeks ago, Butler University announced the arrival of Blue II’s understudy. Within days, a media frenzy arose from a Trip twitter account to a Facebook page, even photo galleries of the husky bulldog on most of the local television and news networks.
There was no question Butler University was proud to unveil the photogenic pup at the men’s basketball game on February 18th in historic Hinkle Field House. A record selling crowd packed in to cheer on the dawgs in hopes of another run in an at-large bid for the NCAA tournament, but many more came to catch a glimpse at Butler’s new top dog. If you haven’t been following Butler’s new family addition, be sure to catch up at the following links.
