I was born a Duke basketball fan

I think I am the No. 1 biggest Duke Blue Devils fan! I have been watching Duke University basketball games since I was born . . . literally. My dad was watching a Duke game while holding me seconds after my mom delivered me. Ever since, I have never, ever missed a game. No matter what I have to do, in my house my dad and I drop everything if Duke is playing.

Here are some Duke fun facts:

n The jersey numbers 10, 25, 44, 43, 24, 35, 32, 11, 33, 31, 22, 23 and 4 are all retired. The last two numbers came in 2007, for J.J. Redick and Shelden Williams.
