Good for Omaha.

 

Seems like I heard a while back that a new Hotel project being built in Lincoln should allow PBA to host NCAA first and second round games in the future.

Omaha has a cozy relationship with the NCAA when it comes to college athletics.  Good for Omaha and good for the state of Nebraska...now if they could just do something about their obscene crime rate.

Any word about the Frozen Four or wrestling? I know they put in a bid for both of those as well.

Not sure how they're measuring crime, but Omaha isn't exactly Chicago. Lincoln gets a D for crime on that site.

Maybe they're being compared to Ceresco.

Haha ya idk how Omaha and Chicago can both be given an F. North Omaha is statistically the highest when it comes to crime rate, but even driving thru that area most of the day is still perfectly fine.
