5fouls Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 I will be in Assembly Hall on Saturday. Looking forward to seeing the Hoosiers live. I have been in South Dakota, but it was over 45 years ago when I was a small child. Family road trip out west made a stop at Mt. Rushmore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thirdgenhoosier Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 I’ve been in South Dakota. Black Hills, Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Badlands, and Wall Drug. Great area of the country! But that drive all the way across the state to get home was brutally long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And was there when Crazy Horse was just starting to be built. Amazing how far it has come since then. Agree, very unique part of the country. As far as my drive. Going from Wyoming to get there. Driving through Wyoming is like driving in an wild life refuge. Just great, all the wild life that roams free there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierKix Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 This game has me on the edge of my seat in a nervous way just a tiny bit because of how well they played against Arizona last week. Need to come out hot and suffocate them on the defensive side of the ball! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierinbham Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 Mitchell, South Dakota is home to the Corn Palace. They actually play a pretty big high school basketball tournament there. Trendon Watford's team played in it last year. I've been to Sioux Falls many times, and the actual falls are quite impressive. Many people from down here go to South Dakota for bird hunting. The airport has a huge hunter orange sign in the fall that's says "hunters welcome" during the season. Go Hoosiers!

IndySportsPartizan Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 Per capita, South Dakota is up there with Indiana on producing basketball talent.. college basketball talent at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really neat picture, though that Reacher posted for us. About and hour's drive East from Rapid City, is a town called Deadwood. Famous for the bar where Wild Bill Hickcock was killed. Been a while. But was able to view the table in the bar where he was shot. And of course, Poker players know the hand he held when he was killed. Known as the Dead man's hand . And in between Rapid City and Deadwood, is a place all bikers know. Sturgis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not know that. Interesting, in that the population of South Dakota, is approximately the same as Indianapolis. Another place known for producing college basketball talent.

One more thing about Rapid CIty. I once spent a Christmas with a family that lived in Sundance, Wyoming. Population around 1,000. About an hours drive to Rapid City. And not only did they consider it a city, they called it the big city. LOL Guess it's all in one's perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jv1972iu Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 From what I can tell, SDS's main scorer is Wilson...6'7" 210 lbs kid. Sounds like a good match up for Justin defensively. Nebraska handled this team, so I'm not really worried, but the Hoosiers can't lose focus. I think we win by 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before it became famous in the movie. Impressive, as is Mt. Rushmore. The thing about that part of the country, it was totally different than anything I had experienced previously. Growing up in NWI. And thinking Chicago was the bomb at the time. Nothing like traveling the highway in Wyoming, from North to South at night. And going for miles and miles, without seeing another car, much less a house light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
