[quote DeltaOne81]Next year will be a nice opportunity to up your number, as everyone is expected to receive tickets to Ford Field Detroit. And it *will* up your priority number, so long as your priority number is > 0 to begin with. I'm hoping by getting my number up to 4 I might start to get some priority lottery tickets.[/quote]
An opportunity for those who don't care about priority too.  Big supply of tickets = low prices close to the event.

They're going back to St. Louis?  Really?

Why?

Neutral site and NHL sized ice surface. There aren't that many rinks out west that fit both these requirements.

It will be interesting to see how well the Fort Wayne, IN regional will draw particularly if neither one of the Michigan teams is placed there. Hockey regional in IN in the middle of March Madness. That is really mind boggling.

Because BBQ, breweries, and blondes from Bloomington never gets old?

LaJollaRed, whenever the Men's hockey team is on TV, I organize a game watch on behalf of the Cornell Club of Washington.  Locations vary.  Trotsky was thinking of Grand Slam Sports Bar at the Grand Hyatt, which is always a good location.  Last March we had the Mens BBall tourney game there and the Men's semi game at the Penn Quarter Sports Tavern the next day.  http://www.cornellclubdc.org/

We are/I am looking forward to hosting a Happy Hour get together for everyone coming down for the Frozen Four.  See you in April!
