Best Idea Yet: Louisville Is Now Using Bourbon To Help Bring An NBA Team To The City

We see bits all the time from cities to help bring an NBA team there. We see Seattle, Vancouver, even back to Oklahoma City back in the day use different things. However, this is the one that should work. You want to get people in Kentucky to get behind something? You use bourbon. Simple process really.

Oh, on top of that they are having former professional players from the Louisville area sign the bottle? Yeah, again, a no brainer. Kentucky people love Kentucky people. Bring back the former pros with names that every single person knows and you’ll get even more push.

I’d love to see Louisville get an NBA team. They aren’t the favorites for whenever it happens next, but I’d love to see the fine people of Louisville get to watch high level hoops. It’d be good for them. I know it’s only about a 70 minute drive to Lexington but not everyone can make that drive to Rupp.
