I used to take off Thursday-Friday of first weekend. Now that I'm retired, every day is a Saturday. Ha Ha Ha.
You know that people hate you for that don't you? :LOL:

12:15 PM start? Dang.
I will be in my car. Are the games on 890 out of Chicago? In the past I have tried 670, 720, 780 without finding them. I should have pushed the scan button on the radio.

Seems very strange to put us in the smaller arena. We absolutely painted Lucas Oil orange, and we are going to bring as many fans as any team in the nation, with the POSSIBLE exception of Purdue!
NCAA proving they hate us more than they love money. Very impressive for us! 😅

We will have way more fans than Purdue!

Reportedly, Elite Eight tickets go on sale tomorrow.

> Tickets are already available for First Four and First Round venues with some venues already sold out. Tickets for the Second Round go on sale at 10 a.m. Mar. 11. Sweet 16 and Elite Eight tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Mar. 16.


Anyone know which court we'd be on in Elite Eight?

Save your money on the Drexel game folks. Better to watch that one on your coach with the bathroom a couple steps away in case the game gets out of hand.

I'm a bit confused on what "sold out" means. Does that mean there is really nobody selling their tickets for resale at this moment?

I have been reading up on Drexel this morning. Interesting that they were the 6th seed in conference tourney and they got hot from the arc shooting 56% from there in their 3 games. They have actually shot over 50% from the arc since Feb 1st. Very peremeter oriented with their best player being their point guard. They also like to play a lot of zone.

Same here, recently retired and I do not have to worry about using vacation time anymore. I sometimes forget what day it is since every day is like every other day.
Since I retired every day is today. just today LOL Sure glad I don't have to worry about work during our tournament games, although I'm supposed to swim at 3 pm on Fri. Might have to blow that off LOL

Since all the locations are a fairly short drive from each other, they are intentionally having potential 2nd round matchup teams not play in the same gym in the first round, and then to prevent any familiarity advantage, having those teams play in a 3rd different gym for the second round game.

Is there a link to a press release about this? I'm curious if we can read some tea leaves to likely locations in the sweet 16. Pre-sale for that and the Elite 8 tomorrow at 9 AM...
