Rudy Gay, Charlie Villanueva and Mr. Belding walk into a casino ...

Jim Calhoun's Charity Basketball Classic is not only a time to celebrate UConn's long lineage of success, both in college and in the pros, but also to reminisce about the past. 

And, of course, to hang out with '90s teen sitcom stars.

After Saturday's event at the Mohegan Sun Arena, former teammates/gal pals Rudy Gay and Charlie Villanueva, along with other former UConn players, hit the casino. Naturally, they ran into America's favorite principal, and were all a-twitter afterward.

Needless to say, this a fantastic omen for the upcoming basketball season. (As if you weren't so excited already.)
