Take a Lap with Mike Grimala — Rob Whaley

Welcome to the latest installment of “Take a Lap with Mike Grimala,” an interview series that we hope becomes a regular trip to the fun side of UNLV sports.

The concept is simple: We invite a UNLV athlete, coach or sports personality to hop in a motorized cart and take a lap around the Thomas & Mack Center. During the course of the ride, we hope to learn more about the people who make up the Rebels’ athletic culture — and have a good time along the way.

In this episode, UNLV basketball player Rob Whaley goes method in an attempt to influence referees.
