I wouldn't trade that experience for anything, and I suspect that if the Final Four that year had been in a smaller facility, I would not have been able to get the ticket I got.
Best ticket I've managed to get at the Dome was through the alumni association at State for the S16 this past year. I haven't been able to find an affordable scalpie that was better than awful for anything else, like the 2009 or 2010 Midwest Regional, I guess it was 2010?
At least the Women's FF is still in basketball/hockey arenas sometimes. I saw Connecticut annihilate somebody in 2009 at Scottrade.
