Oh wait, that’s not what you meant?

i imagine the bars dowtown are also very blah on that news. they were likely hoping the coogs or texas would be there to have swarms of people. i mean really, how many are heading out to see and be seen to watch san diego state.

Yes, but whats sad is those teams are all really good. I can’t believe Miami folks aren’t overrunning this town.

miami will represent but it will not be anywhere near what the coogs or texas would be doing for the local nightlife.

I was offered free tickets to the final 4 through work (vendor) and I declined.

I’ll probably watch on TV but honestly have no interest in it anymore.

Miami is at the hotel across the street from my work. FAU is one block over.

Both hotels are really quiet. No fans, no juice, nada.

Holiday Inn Express or Super 8, maybe.

Hyatt Regency and C Baldwin.

That’s one reason I love the Raleigh area… EVERYBODY loves college basketball around here…

And the pickup games around here are awesome!

I run full-court games 2 hours a day at least 3 days a week.

I was joking.
