A group of longtime Bobcats fans who were waiting at the airport for the team said they were actually here last time they won the championship in 1984.
"It was just as much fun as it is today," they said. "We are lucky enough to have been here twice. I can't believe it."
Before the plane arrived back in Bozeman, fans gathered at the bottom of the escalator with signs, cowbells, and pom poms awaiting the team's arrival.
"They represented Montana spectacularly," said the group of fans. "Go Cats."
