Arch Madness 2023

[Nashville Cat]

I've been wondering the same thing.
There wont be an easy game the last 3 days for any team unless we have a Thursday upset.

How about a Valpo upset from 9-seed? MoSt? UNI? I love tournament time!

Driving up from Nashville on Saturday if we win on Friday. I see us playing SIU, Belmont or Indiana State on Saturday.

I feel confident on Friday playing against UNI or Murray State.

Additional events for Bradley fans-
There is a Missouri Valley Fan Hangout at Ball Park Village near Busch Stadium (601 Clark St.), where fans of every team can meet before, between, and after games.
They are open from 11 pm to 11 pm, though they might have expanded hours on tournament days.

There is also a rally held at Ball Park Village at the Bally Sports Live area a couple hours before each game. It is usually attended by the Bradley cheerleaders, band, and Kaboom.

The team is staying at the Embassy Suites Hotel, 610 N 7th St, St. Louis (at the corner of Washington Ave. and 7th St.) in downtown St. Louis.
In past years, the team has had a "Sendoff Rally" at the hotel about 1½ to 2 hours prior to the start of each Bradley game. It's held in the 4th floor dining area of the hotel. Even if fans are not staying at the Embassy Suites, they are welcome to attend the send-off rally.

The only tie is between SIU and Belmont for 3rd place, and SIU wins the #3 seed because their record against Belmont was 1-0.

Congratulations Bradley fans! SIU guy here, don't shun me too bad. I bought two suites 3 weeks ago for Friday's sessions to lock them in. My daughter, her friend and I will be going to the Friday session with Bradley in it, but we have 9 extra tickets if someone is interested. They are $100 a ticket and are in Suite 259. Just the suite, no drinks or food included. Great for kids, family, and a comfortable setting for the full session. DM me if interested, I'll be in St. Louis Thursday night. I'll give you my cell and contact info so we can chat logistics. Can't believe it has been 26 years since Bradley won a regular season title, peaking at the right time.

Anyone know when they will have seat assignments for St Louis?

OK. When I ordered I was told after Sunday's games so just hoping something didn't get fouled up.

Thanks JHuff. Appreciate that! No hate here for other MVC fans. See you at the tourney!

Just a heads up for everyone.
The weather in St. Louis is running with the highs in the mid 50's through Thursday. Friday the high is 43 with the chance or rain and very possibly some heavy wet snow. Saturday back up to 48 and 54 on Sunday.
As mentioned elsewhere, St. Louis City SC plays its first home match Saturday night with a Pregame rally starting at 4 pm. So lots of people downtown with parking probably at a premium.

So I was planning on going down on Friday and getting tickets there. I just checked in ticketmaster and there is only 2 tickets left for the session online. That can't be right can it. No way they are almost sold out. I've always just got my tickets at the event with a promotion.

There are always a bunch of tickets held back, plus teams have blocks of tickets, and many teams will not sell their entire allotment. So almost always, there will be tickets for sale at the arena, but I can't guarantee that. They have even opened the upper bowl on a couple occasions in past years, and there is a good chance they will this year if they need to make more tickets available.
Plus, there are always street sellers (scalpers) selling tickets. However, I am not too sure how that works now that most tickets are digital.
