For out of state fans, will the Marquette Madness be streamed?
Last year, it was a delayed broadcast I believe. But before that I believe it was live on the GoMarquette.com.
I second this request
couldn't get tickets for the B.o.B. show?

No one is getting tickets unless they are a current student.

Since Glow is on the reunion committee, I blame him for this.

And he confessed it was mainly just him on the committee, so Bigly blame!

No one knows what constitutes Marquette Madness any more.
Friday are player intros and the concert. I doubt that MU will be allowed stream a concert. Saturday AM is the Sweater Vest Scrimmage. I doubt any students will be up that early to stream layup practice after the Friday night festivities.

The guys are twittering about a dunk contest, so pretty sure there is one still.

Yeah seems like tonight. They have a poll on twitter ;D. Sam was promoting Sacar and Sacar asked not to vote for him, I did :). By the way, Cam respectfully declined to be included in the poll.

Makes sense. But little info on any details from MUAD. I was hoping for a stream too as I am out of town this weekend.
I like the refresh and the student-only Madness, btw. The early AM 20 minute Vestie scrimmage sounds like a dud. The FF STH scrimmage later in the year is likely to be the bigger draw.

All the info is in there (besides the stream question).
QuoteMarquette Madness | 9 p.m., Al McGuire Center
Students: get excited -- basketball season is almost underway. To kick off the season, the Men's and Women's Basketball teams invite you to the Al McGuire Center for Marquette Madness. This year's new format features a concert by six-time Grammy nominee B.o.B, which will be preceded by introductions of the 2018-19 men's and women's basketball teams, a shooting and dunk contest and opportunity for fans in attendance to win numerous prizes. Attendees will receive food samples as they enter the venue and an exclusive T-shirt as they exit. Lucky fans can also join current Marquette players in shooting contests to win a television, Xbox, iPad, or Bluetooth Speaker courtesy of Meijer.
For a chance to participate in contests or get access near the stage for B.o.B during the concert, be sure to download the MU Rewards App, available by searching "MU Rewards" in the App Store or Google Play.
Student Season Ticket Members have the opportunity to claim "Fast Pass" access to the Northwest entrance (corner of 12th and Wells) by picking up a wristband. Wristband distribution will be available from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Oct. 5 with locations at the Alumni Memorial Union and the Al McGuire Center.
Doors to the Al McGuire Center will open at 8:30 p.m. and tickets are non-transferrable. Students will need their Marquette ID to claim the tickets and wristbands necessary for entrance to Madness.

And old enough to stream it for the rest of us.
Looks like terrible turnout based on twitter pics.

Al wouldn't be happy. Corners open. Is that a mosh pit?
In all seriousness, this was a really good idea. Engaging the students with a solo event. Madness was a yawn before.
Counterpoint:
Attendance was strong. Madness the last few yrs wasn't quite full and that included nonstudent fans. Combine the kids on the floor and they damn near filled it without outside help.
Well, glad to see the place fill up. Some of those pictures after 9pm, the upper deck bleachers were empty.
