It pains me to miss the festivities this year. I will be watching every game from here in Holland on my Slingbox. Please be sure to buy some extra Budweisers from Paul at Cafe 31. Take it through the whole week! Go Hoyas!

Would like to go on Thursday if we are lucky enough to get by South Fla. Any thoughts on what would be the best way to get tickets? I know most people say to buy tickets from fans of the losing teams, is this still the best practice?

I know most people say to buy tickets from fans of the losing teams, is this still the best practice? Since its unlikely that many USF (or DePaul) fans will be in NY, l say try to poach off of the SJU/UConn/Marquette fans immediately after their team loses. And we'll have an advantage of about 2 hours of knowing whether or not we will play on Thursday so you use that time wisely, sorry I don't know any other place to point you to except the usual places like Stubhub

After missing my first BET (since 1995-6) last year, I've made the trip from Tokyo and am ready to cheer on our Hoyas in the flesh! Very much looking forward to catching up with the crew at Cafe 31, though I will admit it won't quite be the same without jahidihoya...
Who wants to join me on board the non-stop express train to MEGAFANLAND?

Take it through the whole week! Go Hoyas! If your in Amsterdam, there's an American sports bar in Leidespleiden next to Bulldog Cafe that I watched games at in March 2002. It was still there in 2006 when I visited. Food is okay, but more importantly they get American satellite. I want to say it was called All-American Sports Cafe or something.

I'll be there in spirit.
Seriously, if you're all-of-a-sudden missing a beer and can't figure out where that yelling is coming from, it's my spirit.

Driving up tonight from North Carolina. I'm staying in Newark and taking the PATH to the games Tuesday through Saturday. I'll be rolling solo in section 125 with a sweet seat thanks to DePaul ticketing. Great music going on this week in the city too.....Allman Brothers playing Thursday through Saturday, Soulive playing in Brooklyn all week, Blue Oyster Cult & Sam Bush at BB Kings, Hip Hop for Haiti at SOB's plus a festival of basketball. I can't wait!! Go Hoyas. We on the revenge path now.

The usual band of JohnnyJones, dTRAIN, myself and a Talkboard lurker will be on hand in Section 69 as of Wednesday. Hope our stay is more like 2007 and 2008 rather than 2009...
