        Bob Knight was recently given a roll of cloth from a lady who
attending one of his many speaking functions.  It was a gift, she
explained, for him to fashion a suit out of.
        Knight took the cloth to a Bloomington store and asked them to
fashion him a suit out of it.  To his dismay, they told him that he could
either have pants or a coat but there wasn't enough for an entire suit.
        This was ridiculous, Knight thought, so he took the cloth to a
tailor in West Lafayette.  Again, he was told that there was not near
enough cloth to fashion an entire suit out of.
        Knight refused to believe what he was being told and decided to
try one more store.  This time, he went down to Lexington, Kentucky and
asked what they could make for him out of this cloth.  To his surprise,
they told him he could have a couple pairs of pants, a suit, and a vest.
Knight was confused and related his previous experiences with getting a
suit fashioned.  How was it that they couldn't even make a suit up in
Indiana, but now he could get so much more?  "Oh," the tailor
explained, "You're not near as big down here."
