ANyone have any idea what parking is like by stadium?  Is it worth renting a vehicle or is everyone Ubering?

It's a NBA arena so there should be plenty of parking that you'll probably pay $20-$40 a day for

For those who are going, where are you staying? And what were your considerations?

 

Any advice or suggestions?

Listen to Little Feat playing Dixie Chicken and they will recommend the Commodore Hotel!

Are the 100 level seats high up or low down? Just wondering.

Low

[jimmykc]

Are the 100 level seats high up or low down? Just wondering, since I have a grandson who already has his 100 section seats.

Best route to get there if you’re driving? I’ve seen it both ways but seems like you want to go through St Louis even though maps says it’s 15 minutes further.

Here's a link that might be useful for some:

National Civil Rights Museum | At the Lorraine Motel               Anyone with time to spare might want to check this out. Not exactly a pleasant experience but certainly of historical significance. The definitive book on the subject is Hampton Sides' "Hellhound On His Trail".

Fairfield Inn in Marion. Got them last week and was about 40-50 bucks cheaper than now.

My son in laws folks live in Hernado Miss. which is just south of Memphis. And they take I29 to KC and go south on I49 to I40 then east on 40 to Memphis.

My wife and I are in 114. I told my dad, we had to go, it’s a once in a lifetime experience. He quickly told me, I hope it’s not a once in a lifetime experience.

I sure hope it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Nebraska has had this experience 7 other times. You can only win your first NCAA tournament game once.

Awesome song!

112 for us on Friday.  If we win, we will likely sit in the same section as we wouldn't want to mess with good karma.  If we lose, we won't be in that section (or Arena) on Sunday!

Section 216

GBR!!

Sounds like you will be in 112 on Sunday then!

Does anybody have experience hunting for March Madness tickets? Whether it was 10 years ago or more recently for a non-Nebraska game.
 

I consider myself a seasoned ticket hunter on the secondary market websites. In my experience it’s pretty random as to whether or not prices will increase or decrease as gameday approaches. So I’m wondering what others expect will happen.

 

I’m close to pulling the trigger on some seats I like today but if people are convinced they’ll be significantly cheaper come Friday morning maybe I’ll wait.

I think it's realistic to think that the ticket prices will go down the closer we get to game time though no idea on whether or not they'll be significant.
I suspect that the upper level seats could be discounted quite a bit as you can get into this game for $46+ fees.
