Pitino my bunghole! Rick is looking awfully slick on a bottle of Maker’s Mark. Maker’s is releasing 12,600 numbered bottles featuring Pitino, and proceeds from the sales of this limited-edition bottle benefit the funding for the U of L Academic Center of Excellence.

Bottles will be delivered to stores Friday, June 7. There will be a signing event on Thursday, June 13, at 5 p.m. at the KFC YUM! Center. The public can purchase one will-call ticket per person (non-transferable) for admission to the YUM! Center for the 2013 Commemorative Maker’s Mark bottle signing beginning Monday, June 10 at 10 a.m.

I can only dream of a day my mug would be featured on a Maker’s Mark bottle. But after Back Door wall, anything is possible, I suppose.

Can you spot me on the
Back Door wall?
