2014 & 2015 NCAA Sites announced

[Ope3]

Close to home, Milwaukee gets the 1st & 2nd rounds in 2014. Interesting that there is a move away from Domes for preliminary rounds. Makes sense that they can increase demand (price) by having the games in arenas instead. The last 3 times I have seen games at Domes (Mpls '09, San Antone '11 & St Lou '12) attendence was sparse and could have been accomated in arenas instead. Only Indy ('14), Houston & Syrarcuse (which hosts hoops regularly already) in '15 will be in Domes.

Madison Square Garden in 2014 should be a hot ticket.

Eye-balled it quickly and San Diego would be my top choice for 2014, with Milwaukee (driveable), Memphis (never been there), and Indy as my fall-back plans.

For 2015 I'm liking several NCAA venues have never been to: Louisville (KFC Yum! Center), Portland (Rose Garden), Omaha (driveable), and Houston (Reliant Stadium). Louisville probably my top choice because basketball is king in those parts, would like to experience that.
