Battle 4 Atlantis 2019

[I-stateTheTruth]

Gonzaga and Seton Hall were both in the Orlando tourney a couple years ago, too. Matt saved us from a 1st-round loss to Indiana State in that one.

I have no inside info but, I 'm thinking you'll have to be high donor to even have a shot thru ISU. Remember these games are played in a "hotel ballroom" with very limited seating. ISU will also take out tickets for families and members of the travel party before they sell what's left

Best bet may be thru the venue and even then, I expect a very tough ticket

A friend says they seat 3500.

I am so going to this. Been to Atlantis 4-5 times.

I feel like you should be able to pinpoint the exact number of times you've been there. I mean come on, it's not like it's 55-56 times.

 

[heitclone]

Any clue when the dates would be announced or tickets sold?

I wasn't sure what the number was but, with 8 schools, it will still be a tough get

Its always Wed-Fri of Thanksgiving week.

This is awesome.
I like the idea of following Gonzaga around to tourneys.

Im so excited. I can’t remember exactly, it’s at least 4 but I think it’s probably 5. I guess I could check my passport later.

Edit: okay 4 out of the 5 times in the Bahamas was at Atlantis.

Pre Solo, I forgot Bowie got that much PT. Monte 9 boards, 1 assist ,2 TO's. I remember that being a struggle but the box score is super weird.

Hard to get the assist when they dare you to throw it inside and then they just tackle your big guy with the ball and make him earn it at the line.

I thought Solo was hurt at that point -- banged up his hand or something?

 

[Sigmapolis]

I forgot to mention that was the ultimate Holden game --

6 MP
3 PF

The guy basically got called for a foul on 50% of defensive possessions.

Jeez.

Going to Maui for Thanksgiving 2018 and it looks like I am going to the Bahamas for Thanksgiving 2019! Wooooo!

I can't remember if he was back by then it seems like he was out until the big 4 or maybe even big 12 play?

 

[CysRage]

Yes! We wanted to go to Maui but we couldn't make it work. We are going to try for Battle 4 Atlantis 2019!

I was there - I can confirm Solo was held out with a broken bone in a hand.

I watched him shooting from the top of the key. He must have hit 8 of 10, with really good back spin. I kept waiting for him to start hitting some of his long jumpers last season based on how well he shot in Orlando in warm-ups. Perhaps I have flawed methodology.

Read this, told PapaLew we're going, and he gave me the side-eye.
Well, it worked for Maui.

I'm just going to have to do a little convincing...

I’ll take you.

I’ll take you.

You need a safe wing(wo)man or something?
