The Attendee's Impromptu Interview (Of Sorts) With URI's "Man-Child"

As per usual on a typical Thursday at the University of Rhode Island, I fulfilled my nutritional obligations as a URI attendee by ordering a steak and cheese calzone from Rhode House (Shout out to HungryRhody.com). While making my way out the front door of my building to go pick and pay for my take-out from the delivery man, I heard someone talking to me over my back shoulder. Funnily enough, I had heard this person's voice before. It was URI's best freshman recruit, Cyril Langevine, who is extremely popular in the hallways of Garrahy Hall due to the singing he does in the laundry room about all the girls he gets, muttering something. The 6'8 PF is most well-known around America as URI's "Man-Child" by the words of his coach, Dan Hurley, following his tremendous rebounding against the Cincinnati Bearcats.

Somewhat surprisingly, he asked me, "Yo, is that Albie's?" and "What'd you order?". I replied like any typical URI attendee, "No that's not Albie's, I just ordered Rhode House and I got a steak and cheese calzone." Believe me, this was not at all weird compared to what was coming up next.

After he asked me, "You think that delivery guy will give me a ride to Hope?", I replied "Yeah probably, just ask." Obviously, I said this because as a URI attendee all I do is maintain and promote positivity onto my peers. Then, after asking for my advice, he yelled out to the innocent Rhode House delivery man, "Yo, you wanna give me a ride to Hope?". After the delivery man denied his request, Langevine decided to change his purpose for yelling and then screamed, "YO, BETTER MAKE SURE YOU GO TO THE GAME SUNDAY AGAINST HOLY CROSS". The freshman forward was hilarious.

Any thought of me commending URI's "Man-Child" for his first career double-double against the Houston Cougars disappeared ....

About a URI Attendee

Hi, I attend URI basketball games religiously. I am also a pessimist. These 2 facts do not always mix cohesively. Read my articles to see why.
