    The only info about tickets was on the webpage of the organizers, Basketball Travellers, but they required you buy them through a travel package (that's how they make their money).
    But now I notice that if you try to register for a package, even that option does not appear to be available any more. Strange. It's as if they don't want fans to come.


    My wife and I went to St. Thomas last year even though Bradley pulled out and the tournament was moved to Washington, DC. We chose not to cancel our reservations and we has a great time since there were no cruise ships running, and it made for a much quieter, less hectic vacation with none of the cruise ship tourists on the island.
    We did some checking and had planned to just buy tickets at the door of the arena on the days Bradley was scheduled to play. The arena is just west of the airport entrance as you enter the University of Virgin Islands campus. The Paradise Jam games can draw nice crowds when they have big schools participating. But this year's field doesn't include any big schools that have tons of fans travelling. So I wouldn't expect anything near a sellout.
    More often, I think the crowds look like this-




    So I am pretty sure you'll be able to drive to the arena for the games and buy tickets there. But if you drive there, get there early. The parking lot is small. Have fun and bring home some wins!

      Thanks for the info DC.

      I ended up calling the organizers of the tourney, and he was surprised the tickets weren’t available on their website. He made some calls and they are now available today @ basketballtravelers.com.

      $150 for all tourney pass

      or

      $55 per day
