First time heading to Allstate Arena in picturesque Rosemont. Where have people gone to pre-game in the past? Can't imagine there being too many options.
Marquette is holding an official pre-game party at Toby Keith's complete with bus transportation to and from the Allstate. You can link to it through the alumni page.

It's a fun time. I will be heading to the pre-game reception again this year. I think it's like$20 for some food, etc. Alchoholoc drinks available for sale too.
The entire chitown clan will be there. Parents, sister, everyone will be there at the Bradley Center south.
TAMU will be there with ODMU238 and a couple other buddies from back in the day. Should be plenty of blue and gold in the Demon's Den

Rosemont actually has a pretty awesome bar scene and the BagpipingBoxer will be there
Would ordinarily go, but will be on the Treasure Coast of Florida that day, so me and Ms. Dgies will be relegated to watching it on Fox!
Go Warriors (as he sips his beer on the veranda where it's 72 degrees!)
Will be there with 2 DePaul alum. At least one of which I seriously think roots for the Warriors over the Blue Demons. Secretly, of course.
Lots of seats still available - great prices too! Got 2 first row tickets behind the good guys' bench for $30 each. Let's fill it up Warrior fans.
Also - thanks for the head's up on the pre-game reception. Mrs. MilWarrior and I will see you all there.
Trying to convince my visiting in-laws to go so I don't look like a jerk leaving for the game....

If they don't understand your love for the Warriors and your need to support them, they are the ones who are jerks. :)
I'll be there with 2 other MU alums (one being my wife) and a fourth behind the Warrior bench as well. Last time I had seats like that at a MU-DePaul game, I was with my small children and had to listen to F-bombs out of the Tanned One every other word out of his mouth.
Jen Lada wants to know if your kids were on TV cryin'?
I'll be at game with a friend in second to last row behind the bench. Wasn't a thing closer with two seats 10 days ago. Let's Go Marquette!

Exactly...
I'll be there with the wife, bro-in-law and his wife rockin' the gold. We are hitting up Toby Keith's before-hand as well. Looking forward to it.

Any pre-game suggestions for non-alums? Looking for a decent place to grab a burger/beer and watch some of the other Big East games before heading to the MU game.
Toby Keith's is huge. The official MU function will be upstairs. I'm sure the downstairs will be all regular folks. Shoeless Joe's is also a great choice and closer.
