Pastor David Tucker wanted his congregation to be closer together during a sermon this week and not have folks separated or way in the back of Second Baptist Church in Hopkinsville, Ky. So Tucker devised a system he believed his flock - apparently many of whom are Kentucky fans - could get behind.

He posted signs on some of the pews in the back noting they were reserved for Duke and Louisville fans. He also put cardboard cutouts of Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski, Louisville coach Rick Pitino and former Duke All American Christian Laettner in the pews like, well, scarecrows.
Tucker's ingenious tactic was documented on Twitter by, of all people, a former Kentucky Cameron MIlls (1994-98).
David, the Pastor here came up with a fantastic idea to keep people from sitting in the back of the church tonight. http://ift.tt/1wAFklI

As if the idea of sitting in a Duke or Louisville section wasn't enough to bring his congregation closer together, Tucker gave them some added motivation by putting a seating a likeness of Kentucky coach Jo Calipari right up front.
My favorite pic from the revival I preached tonight. @UKCoachCalipari sat up front & wore a cardigan. http://ift.tt/1HLnHk6
