First NCAA Tourney Game

I went to my first tourney game last night. I got to see Michigan beat Clemson in a close one and Oklahoma blow out Morgan State. Here are some observations:

1. Cheap tickets are great...no matter where you sit! We had decent seats, but for $20 a seat for the face value of $126, it is hard to beat.
2. Kansas fans are always annoying....even during Michigan and OU games. Seriously, no one cares that you are a KU fan. KU wasn't even playing last night. The fact you wore your jerseys and hats was enough. You didn't need to start KU chants or rant fans of teams who aren't even your rivals or in your conference!
3. Choose a road trip partner wisely. When driving home late at night, be sure your passenger will stay awake for more than 30 minutes of a 2 hour drive.
4. Downtown KC in the Power & Light district is really nice.
5. Sporting events are a great place to strike up random conversations.
6. This new list of 100 things to do before 30 is going to be great (see future post...not yet materialized on this blog)
7. Don't forget to bring a camera...pics from my phone suck.
8. Getting off work at 4 and randomly driving to KC for a basketball game reminds me of college...wish I was able to do things like that more often!

Overall, it was a great night. Rough trying to wake up this morning, but definitely worth it!
