Anybody going to BET?

[AZWarrior]

Then for the love of God, STAY AWAY!

Not that I am superstitious or anything.............

You will note that no teal was present in this post.....

I'll be there for 7th time.  Arriving on Wed am and will watch 11 games.

With it likely that we'll play at 7 or 9 on Thursday, I'll probably fly in that day ... if I can free up the funds for the fun!!

Went to BE tourney first three years but missed for awhile until this year.  Flying in on Wed with two other guys (6 am flight out of Milw).  BB is always awesome but closing the bars at 4 am is close second.  LOVE meeting other fans and talking BB.  Except Pitt fans, hate em.  Got to the SB in Dallas and had my revenge.  Still think the Garden is a dump but when that place is full and rocking it is a pretty cool atmosphere to be in.  Still, closing the bars at 4 am and just watching all the other conf tourney games, meeting other fans, it's the best!!

What makes Pitt fans so bad?

My wife and I are flying in on Tuesday for the BET.....Never have been, but have talked about it every year, figured since it is the last year, time to go.....have been to Greensboro'74; Atlanta '77 and N. Orleans '03 so might as well make this one.....Have niece and nephew to visit in the City.....  Bought ticket packages for 2 of us as season ticket holders....a "real bargain" at $470@ for all sessions.....I'm told student tickets are available for student season ticket holders for $10 a game when MU plays....  The team and MU hotel is the Westin at Times Square for the MU bargain rate of $389/nt +.....We are flying our 2 sons in Thursday who have never been to NYC.  We have a hotel 2 blocks from MSG and around the corner from the announced MU bar Mustang Harry's located at 352 7th Ave., about 3 blocks from MSG.  GO WARRIORS!

Now that is how a Warrior rolls!

I'll be there with MarqKC.  Looking forward to the last, great Big East tourney.

That's living life.  Good for you, hope you and your family have a great time and I'll maybe run into you out there!

Tickets came in the mail today.  Section 211, row 5.  Upper level, but center court.  Never been to MSG, so have no idea of the quality of the seats.

[MU82]

I don't even have tickets yet. How easy/difficult is it to get them? Does it sell out every session? I'd really rather not have to pay double face value from a scalper.

I don't have tickets either and have been told that scalpping is the best/cheapest way to get some, any truth to this? Oh and I'll be going with 4 other alums

Scalping is very easy. Especially if Cuse and/or Pitt lose early.

Great event.  Not going this year but may go back next year for the new league.  2014 Big East champs!

You do want to do the official Marquette bar before the games. They usually have some complimentary things, plus give aways, etc.
It is a great time.

[MU82]

While I'm a big college hoops fan, I have very little interest in watching any games not involving The Gold. Is that weird?

Still working out logistics of my potential trip. I'm sure everybody is on pins and needles while I try to get things worked out ...

See y'all at Mustang Harry's
