April 15th: On this date...
... in 1992, the University put together a retirement dinner in Rupp Arena for the recently retired "Voice of the Wildcats". About 700 people came to a black-tie affair honoring the great Cawood Ledford for his service to Kentucky basketball, and to radio broadcasting everywhere. It was a $250-a-plate event that raised about $135,000 for a Cawood Ledford Scholarship Fund. Scout.com has a great writeup of Cawood. Below are the final moments of 1992 SEC Tourney with Cawood painting the picture.
