How I met B.B. King
He was one of the honorary degree recipients at Commencement this year, and while the band was waiting for the procession to end, he came zipping around the corner in a golf cart. To our great surprise, Ruth (the president of the university) came running after him calling, “Stop! We have to get a picture of the band with B.B. King!” So, somewhat in disbelief, we ran over to crowd around and take the picture. Afterwards I shook his hand as he smiled and said, “Thank you. The band sounded really good!”
