the dust settles

Lawrence erupted into a full-out celebration Sunday as the Jayhawks downed Davidson and claimed their place in the Final Four. I took up residence in the Jackpot down on Mass. to focus on fans during the game. I haven't shot there for an assignment yet but have always wanted to.

After the game, students rallied through downtown like a revolution was breaking out. Chants filled the rainy air and barefoot revelers raced down the roads carrying school banners. Cheap beer mixed with the sweet smell of victory. Delicious.

Here are a few shots from the rollercoaster of emotions fans were going through yesterday.
