Let's hope they wake up by Saturday

Chicago

+1 for the AD reference

I live in chicago and had to wait until last minute to get tickets to make sure I was off work, so ended up getting a $76 ticket on stubhub for the lower level. My friend I had to get seperate seats too as the only 2+ tickets were in the $120s and up.

Any Chicagoans heading to Halsted Harp to watch tomorrow?

I met Spike Lee while studying abroad about 5 years ago and he sucked then, too.

Really thought that was well done and nice things said about coach. Had me choked up

Driving down Friday from Chicago! Couldn't be more excited!!

RIP Coach. Thanks for helping make my years at SLU so memorable.

If anyone was wondering, the front page of my Columbus Dispatch today has a picture of SLU fans and an article about out of towners at the games yesterday. Ha

Works for me! Thanks!!

Boston's is a sports bar right across the street from the arena. It is nothing too special but would be a good/easy place to meet up. Also would probably be very crowded before games though. R Bar is another on Front Street, a 5 minute walk away. I haven't actually eaten there but have been there for nightlife and its nice- have patio seating too.

The Winking Lizard is a great bar with good beer selection, but you are right, neither is close to downtown. To stay near downtown, try the short north neighborhood on high street http://www.shortnorth.org/dining or german village http://www.gvbusinesscommunity.com/dine-2/dine/ (Katzinger's Deli, Schmidt's)

Right by the arena is Big Bang piano bar and Buca di Beppo. There is Boston's sports bar and Ted's Montana Grill (feat. the bison burger) across the street. Also would recommend Gordon Biersch brewery if looking for something different. Elevator Brewery has good beer and is close by as well. I have tickets but have to find out if I can get Friday off to travel to Columbus for the game...

I think Duke's might be my favorite: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6IENQ-Cc3o&feature=relmfu

Mine is in and out.

I am planning on moving to Chicago in the summer and would LOVE a SLU bar. Get on it!

I will be shocked if the NCAA doesn't step up add to these suspensions. After the recent events involving Penn State and Syracuse, I would think the NCAA is trying to do everything it can to improve it's image... Thinking they might be a bit more aggressive with the punishments.

If you pay for the stream, and it sucks, write to them and you will get your money back. I paid for a SLU A-10 tournament game a couple of years back and didn't have sound/ lots of buffering the entire first half...wrote a nasty email complaint and was refunded immediately, PLUS got to watch the 2nd half with sound and no issues

"Maybe you should start going to games because $1.67 per ticket for a Division I basketball game is a better deal than you're getting on anything else in your entire bill." +1

My Dad is attending the game, sitting one section over from the SLUnatics, he said they're doing a fantastic job and that the Xavier fans in their section look miserable. Props

You can try: http://www.livesportstream.us/drupal-7.0/?q=node/31 though it isn't working very well for me.

I live in ET and I start work at 2:30. Great.
