Anyone else making the trip to the Garden? I'm flying in from Chicago on Wednesday and meeting up for the tournament with my dad (he's taking the Amtrak in).
We're staying about 3 blocks from the Garden so that we can walk (instead of the official team hotel). Planning on heading to the Keg Room on Wednesday afternoon prior to the games.
I'm familiar with NYC, but this is my first trip in for the tournament.

In!
Staying a block away at a hotel on 6th Avenue with other X fans. Not the team hotel.
Flying into Newark taking the train in.
First time, huh? Good thing for you it’s the greatest venue for a college basketball tournament. As long as X does well, you should be in for a treat.
I’ve lived in NYC for well over a decade and now live just outside of it. I’ve been to close to 20 Big East Tournaments at MSG. Often went when it was the old BE. Always a good time, but even better with a good X team playing and advancing in it.
I will have to miss Wednesday’s game (coaching my son’s team in the playoffs). Should X win, I will try to make it to Thursday’s game.

Here’s hoping for two wins on Wednesday!

Thank you! Two wins would make for a very delightful Wednesday indeed.

Totally agree. I was based at 2 Penn (the tall building attached to MSG) for years. Been to a number of BETs. Ironical how I always had to be in NY that week ;). Some great memories, some not so great memories (I was there 2 years ago watching the DePaul debacle and what proved to be one of the last college games of the year). Never had a prob getting tickets. Hopefully we're still playing Thursday.

I'm not going but hope to go again in the coming years. There is nothing better as a basketball fan.
