    We go every year with our all session tickets and watch at least part of every game. It's a great weekend with good friends, good hoops, and good food too. We are staying at the Crown Plaza (next door to the old Adam's Mark...which is now the Hyatt) and another part of our group is at the Sheraton across the street from the arena...

Kind of a nice 'transition' into tourney mode. Now, should BU end up playing in them, well....they'll be anything but relaxing and enjoyable. But for now I enjoy sipping a few cold ones and watching some Valley buckets.
      Thursday is really great because you can wander around and not worry about large crowds, relax and watch two games, and mingle with the folks already down there for their respective teams. I certainly have met some great people over the years earlier in the tournament and will be meeting some of them that weekend again to catch up.

        I'll be sticking to "the plan" as I have the last two years....drive down...call all friends that go to school at Washington, St. Louis, or St. Louis College of Pharmacy...if we win find a dorm room or apartment....if we lose drive back pi**ed

          My wife and I will be there on Thursday. we will watch all nine games. this Weekend and my fantasy Football Draft are my two favorire events.(Sad isn't it)?
          Staying at The Marriot Courtyard.
          Renaisasance ticked me off, when they closed reservations due to a Medical Convention, Later opened up, but I was already booked at the Courtyard..$126.00 a day gets you free parking and a Full Breakfast for 2..
          Renaissance would have been $121.00, but throw in Valet Parking and breakfast for two and it jumps to about $200,00 a day before taxes.

              We will be going, as we have since 1995 and refuse to break the string. I believe Bradley will be making a return to the championship game this year.

                    My boys and I will be there again this year for all 9 games. Looks like we'll be staying the same place we did last year...the Drury Inn in O'Fallon, IL...loved it there!
