2017 NCAA Regional in Kansas City

[nfrine]

Just got a mailer from the NCAA about next year's regional in KC. The Big 12 is the host for this one. Probably did this so a "Blueblood" just down the street was still eligible to stay at home.

NCAA® March Madness is coming to Kansas City, Missouri! Share The Experience™ at the 2017 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship Midwest Regional, March 23 & 25, 2017, at Sprint Center, hosted by the Big 12 Conference.

Nice easy drive to go root against certain teams.

The Big 12 hosts some round just about every year. Were you as off-put this year when OU got to play in OKC?

2013 - Dallas
2014 - Dallas
2016 - Oklahoma City
2017 - Kansas City
2018 - Dallas

No shadow, I'm only put-off when it's the JHoks that benefit.

Then you should go bang down the doors of the MVC, too. They've been the host for KC before.

Got a reminder about the presale for this. Two price levels. Seats to be designated later. No thanks.

Kind of like what ISU did for the Sweet 16. A bit of a rip off/a lot of risk.

It was even worse for those of us who bought through the Syracuse box office. Our tickets were in the third balcony. Last row and next to last row. But we were there!
