Congressmen bet on KU-UAB game

By Staff     Mar 26, 2004

Rep. Dennis Moore, D-Kan., and Rep. Spencer Bachus, R-Ala., have placed an edible wager on tonight’s game between Kansas University and the University of Alabama-Birmingham.

Moore is a 1967 KU graduate, while Bachus, a Birmingham native, attended Auburn University and earned a law degree from the University of Alabama.

If Kansas wins, Bachus will provide Moore with Alabama’s famous Johnny Ray’s Barbecue Chocolate Pies and Royal Cup Coffee. If UAB is victorious, Moore will send Jack Stack Barbecue pork burnt ends and a jug of its KC Original BBQ Sauce to Bachus.

Moore doesn’t usually engage in bets before the Final Four, but he made an exception because UAB last appeared in the Sweet 16 in 1982.
