Diana and Guy Berger have been traveling to Gonzaga’s March Madness runs since 2013. This year, the couple had an extra fan day with them.
DENVER — A 448-mile trip didn’t stop Diana Berger from watching Gonzaga play the first round of March Madness in Denver. She flew from Albuquerque to support her alma mater.
“I’ve been a fan since I stepped onto campus,” Diana said.
She’s not the only Zag fan in the Berger family. Her father Guy Berger is her traveling partner. They have been traveling to Gonzaga’s March Madness games since 2013.
The tradition began on Selection Sunday 2013 when Gonzaga secured the first number one in the tournament. Diana and Guy decided to go into the first round of this tournament, and that was the start of a decade-long tradition.
They have traveled to cities across the country to support Gonzaga.
“I enjoy watching Diana when the Zags are close. She can’t breathe so I’m just kind of watching her,” Guy said.
On this tenth anniversary of the tradition, the duo turned into a trio when Diana’s nephew and Guy’s grandson put a stuffed bunny in Guy’s trunk.
“My brother called us and said, ‘You guys got any buns?’ We can’t find him. Colton won’t sleep,” Diana said.
But Bun Bun was already on his way to Denver, so Diana decided to initiate him into the Gonzaga family. He drank beers, explored Denver, coached and supported the Zags in the first round of the tournament.
Bun Bun will be cheering for the team along with Diana and Guy on Sunday night. If Gonzaga moves to the Sweet 16, Bun Bun probably won’t make the trip. But Diana will be there, as so often before.
