Among familiar faces courtside at University of Louisville women’s basketball games for several seasons have been those of former Louisville Mayor Jerry Abramson and his wife Madeline. Their chairs are actually just off the playing floor, along with those of several major boosters of the program. Will be interesting to see if the Abramsons retain those seats if his ticket is successful in the 2010 gubernatorial race. Abramson is running for Lieutenant Governor as a running mate to Steve Beshear.

Professor Jer is a huge fan and one of the best referee baiters out there. HE assured us that he will be back in his court side seats with Madeline for 2011-12.
Wouldn’t surprise me if they did. Last I heard, they didn’t plan to move to Frankfort — there are plenty of other state government types who make that commute.
