As I have not been to many road games to have a valuable opinion on this subject, I will let you guys show the rest of us the way.

Big East games or games on next year's schedule

Milwaukee and Chicago are fun, but nothing like New York City.

I always like Philly, even though the city smells like farts.

No...way.....Philthydelphia? Home of the Trash?

One of my least favorite places. Nova is in Villanova though, not in town.

Lived in Providence (5 years), DC (10 years), and outside NYC (5 summers). All are great places to visit. Philly and north Jersey...not so much.

I love visiting Philly for games because it's an excuse to get a legit cheesesteak, which are hard to find outside Philly/Jersey and the beaches. Plus, there is no other city in the nation where you feel better winning anything as an away fan than Philly. New York has got to take the cake if you can get past how expensive it is. I can't really consider DC to be the road for me but I always love when Xavier comes here. And Chicago is one of the best cities in the world so I'm sure DePaul would be a fun road trip as well.

I was in Chicago last weekend and planned a weekend around the game with 6 buddies. Chicago is a blast but the location of the stadium is a pain and was not a huge fan of the stadium. With the distance from downtown and weather It was a pain. I would wait until they build their downtown stadium to go to a game at DePaul. I really want to go to the BE tourney this year so hoping to plan a trip to New York around that.

My wife is currently enjoying NYC in advance of work there next week. That's hard to top. I'm visiting my parents in FL now with my sister from Providence. That's a great place to live (if you don't mind some winter).

Yeah the Rosemont Horizon (or excuse me... Allstate Arena) is close to the airport and a haul if you're staying downtown. Wait until they have built Cintas v.2. I haven't been to DC for a game so can't comment there. For my money MSG is it. Providence is nice but no NYC.
