St Louis Pre-Game Parties

[chitown fanatic]

Does anyone know where BU is having their pre-game festivities this year? I thought last year's place was great (though I forgot the name) and would like to see it there or somewhere even closer to scottrade again.

It was at J. Bucks. There has not been any announcement of a site for this year, but everyone I talked to thought Joe Buck's was great. I hope it's there again this year.

Thanks! Hard to believe it's only 10 days away now. Let's hope we're not having this on Thursday afternoon.

I'll look for the email but I'm pretty sure I got an email saying that it was going to be J. Bucks again this year.

No- glad you asked- it is an open party for any Bradley fan.
