The excitement surrounding Saturday's big basketball game between UK and North Carolina is building!

Fans are already pitching tents and prepping for the tip off at 12:30 at Rupp Arena.

Dozens of Cats fans are camped out, hoping to get the best spot in the Eruption Zone.

Doors to Rupp Arena open at 11, Saturday morning.

Some of them say they have been camped out along High Street since Wednesday.

Despite the chilly weather they say it will all be worth it tomorrow when they've got great views of the game.
