More on KU’s famous dancing grandma: ‘Ah man, she’s great’
“He kept hearing me hollering and hollering and hollering,” King says. “He probably told them. ‘We better do something, or my grandma ain’t going to be happy.’”
This wasn’t an easy trip to make. King rented a Jeep for help with snow driving, then made the six-hour trek from Raleigh, N.C. along with her boss and some family friends.
“I like to have somebody supporting him at all times,” King says.
That started before the game, at the team Marriott a few hours earlier, when King gave her grandson a pep talk. He’d never won in Morgantown during his previous three years at KU, and this would be his last chance.
King said she told him five words: “You’re going to win tonight.”
Graham made it happen."
