Me and two buddies have already agreed we're going wherever we wind up.
Spokane would be the worst on that list, but I would have fun no matter what city we are in.

I'm going wherever we are as well. I'm fortunate to be able to take advantage of a lot of non-rev options so just pulling for a direct flight.

I'm with you. Airfare is going to be horrendous, though.

If it's Raleigh, one of my good girlfriends is +1 with me as long as we don't play her alma mater, UNC.

I have family in Spokane, but lordy lordy that'll be a gazillion hour flight.

OBF says Buffalo is nice...


It is, crazy sports town, great micro brews. I've only been there twice but been impressed both times. If you can deal with a bit of cold for a weekend, well worth it imo. I think it's the best site of any of them, I've never been to Spokane though. Just cold, pack some snow boots, actually a lot of good looking broads (not joking), just gotta get inside when the jackets come off haha. Louisville is a great one too if they get thrown up there next year. I believe the 2nd and 3rd round roll back to that city in 2015. Raleigh is a cool city too.

Slow down your NCAA final four plans. There are some play-in games in Dayton. Can't have any south Florida losses again.

Yeah save your miles (plus the $150 short notice mileage fee). Three/Four days notice is how the airlines make money.

Trying to get dear old Dad to come to the games with me. Thankfully, he is a consultant and has a ton of miles that he hasn't used.

I'm definitely in for San Antonio. I will make a huge attempt depending on flights to St Louis, Raleigh, Orlando, and San Diego. I think SD would be the most expensive

I'll be sitting courtside if they're in Indy. Gotta love them corporate sponsors baby ha. Had amazing seats at Indy last year, was so much fun.
