Big East tournament

[Windyplayer]

Going for the first time!  Flying out with two friends and meeting another out there.  One of the guys was able to make this part of a "work trip" meaning free hotel if he takes two meetings each morning.

Awesome. Enjoy. You'll have a ball.

Wow—that's awesome.
Make sure your buddy gets to those meetings so the hotel gets paid for!
Have fun.

Is that $100 each for Fri/Sat or both combined? I'd estimate it will stay around $100 for Friday until some local teams or favorites get knocked out. If St. Johns, PC, SH, etc. make it to Friday, expect it to creep up. Your best value will be buying from someone looking to unload after their team loses, but it's obviously not guaranteed you'll find it. For Saturday, hope for Marquette vs. DePaul and pay whatever you want to get in.

Right now it's about $100 for Friday alone and then another $100 for Saturday

Going for the first time with my wife.  Booked tickets through Marquette since I didn't the prices were too bad.

[Hards Alumni]

How many of you are heading out there?

Same time as Spring Break, tempted to go.

Headed to the semis and the final... hopefully, I get to see Marquette play some ball.

The last 2 weeks have really dampened my anticipation for NYC next week. I'm just hoping to see at least 2 games at this point.

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

From what I can tell, the #2 seed gives Marquette the 7:00 game Thursday which is preferable to the 12:30 game from my perspective.

[Mr. Nielsen]

You mean 6pm, from 11AM.

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

I thought it will be 7:00 eastern time. I thought that was posted earlier in this thread.

Thought we go by central time on this board. 7et/6ct

Are there any events set up to either celebrate a win or commiserate a loss?

Just post here where you're going after the game

If it's like years past, Mustang Harry's is the place pre/post game

[Celtic Truth]

I got an email from MU saying mustang Harry's is the official spot 2hrs before the game and right after the games are over. Not sure what type of crowd they've gotten there in the past.

[swoopem]

The only time I went to the Big East tourney was 2013. I went to Mustang Harry's before the game and it was a good time. Tons of MU fans and lots of hype. Then we got smoked by ND and that was that.

Good bar though. I recommend it if you're looking to pregame, especially with other MU fans

[muwarrior69]

I just want to avoid the Johnnies until the final if we both make it that far. I can just see us playing Creighton, St. Johns and Nova

Do they serve beer at the Big East tournament?

[BM1090]

Do they serve beer at the Big East tournament?

They served overpriced bud light and yuengling in 2014

[brewcity77]

I may be in the minority, but I'd love to see St John's. It won't be in our first game and they have no depth. That team will be exposed on day two, assuming they can even win their first game.

[DFW HOYA]

Do they serve beer at the Big East tournament?

Of course. Why do you think all those Syracuse fans kept coming?

[MU82]

Of course. Why do you think all those Syracuse fans kept coming?

Because they kept going to the same "day spa" that Robert Kraft did?

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

Thanks MU Fan in Conn for posting. I was just on Renaissance website and they are all booked.

Is there any indication which sections will be heavy MU for Thursday? Looking at tickets on Stubhub and travelling to the game solo. Trying not to get stuck in heavy enemy territory if at all possible.

Bought ours through MU and we are in 210. Not sure if that means anything.
