NCAA Men's Basketball Championship Tickets

Three of Four games on Thursday were very entertaining ....last was not as neither team played well ....great atmosphere and fans were excited for their fav team (I had no particular favorite, just love good college basketball !)

Programs $10 (last year were $8) = 20% INFLATION! Virtually every BIG SCREEN replay was cut several seconds short by a display of the NCAA logo, which in most cases resulted in not seeing its' critical moments. BIG SCREEN colors were WAY OFF; for example UTEP uniforms are ORANGE and NOT RED, and UW uniforms are PURPLE and NOT BLUE. Updated scores from other games were VERY infrequent. Our section (107) usher was EXTREMELY over-zealous checking everyones' tickets EVERY time they returned to their seats (I don't not need my tickets checked eight times or more during the course of an event), but at the end of the event was sitting on the floor of the main isle, blocking our exit. The time between Session 1 and Session 2 was 15-30 minutes too short, not allowing time to visit a local eating place for food. Last year in Boise, ID we had time to tailgate between sessions.

GREAT EVENT! GOOD GAMES, GOOD FOOD, CLEAN, USHERS NOT OVER CONTROLLING

TOURNAMENT WAS WELL ORGANIZED AND EFFICIENTLY RUN. THE FORD CENTER COULD USE SOME ADDITIONAL MEN'S RESTROOMS BUT OTHERWISE ACCESS IS GOOD AND THE FACILITY VERY CLEAN.

The HP Pavilion was a good venue as there really isn't a bad seat in the building and all concessions were conveniently located. Three out of four basketball games were entertaining with exciting finishes including two buzzer beaters. My only qualms are that for whatever reason, the arena did a horrible job showing instant reply on controversial calls and athletic plays and only announced scores of other games on a very limited basis throughout the day. This is something everyone wants to know during the first round of the NCAA tournament when 12 other games are being played.

Great games, loud and enthusiastic atmosphere. Hope they schedule more tournaments at the Ford Center.

It was an awesome experience. Everyone was enjoying the games and being friendly to rival teams fans.

Great experience. The games were great. Good seats and no vendors walking the isles hawking food and drinks. Looking forward to Saturday

While I enjoyed Thursday's Sessions I and II of the NCAA Basketball Championships, the Arena being less than half-full took away from the experience. The upper level was almost empty. I believe the main cause for this is the $66.00 per game ticket price. That's rather expensive for local fans to pay to go see teams which we don't even know, don't you think? Another reason for poor attendance is that I don't believe this tournament was advertised much locally. I heard about it by chance a few days before the event. I'm wondering what next year's 2nd Round games are going to cost. I need to start budgeting now! And forget about 2012's Final Four!

Loved the experience!! New Orleans is great and the arena is so easy to get to and from. Ticketmaster was very easy and friendly to work with and the package is great to be able to watch 6 NCAA tournament games for under $200. I would recommend and will attend again in the future.

Outstanding venue, outstanding games. Rock Chalk Jayhawk, Go KU!!!

The games were a lot of fun, but I was very disappointed that they were not showing scores of other games. Also, during the game breaks and halftime, they should have been broadcasting other games on the big screen. Also, on one of the big screens, several panels were not working.

i do not understand why the ncaa would not show the cbs feed from other games during the half time and between games. i sat through four games with nothing to look at on giant screens. even during the games getting information or replays was very lacking.

What's not to like about this? It's March Madness!!! The only bummer was the way they cleared the staduim after the first session then let people in for the second session.. Seemed very confused and disorganized.

Since I am at "March Madness", there should be a way that they flash scores of other games on the score board during breaks in play. This did not happen but a couple of times.

There should definitely be score updates cycling throughout the game. As I recall there was one audio score update per game played...completely unacceptable. Also the jumbotron needed to have the CBS live feed during the halftime/between games break. Please handle this. Also no in and outs from the Pavilion as well as alcohol (I know this is the fault of the NCAA). I hope the time I spent on this feedback is acknowledged and acted upon.

While I got to watch some exciting games in the Pavilion, there very little updates on what was going on elsewhere. There was no video of games being played elsewhere, and score board updates were pretty much limited to half time and between games. The TV timeouts are painful to endure while you're at the game. I guess I don't notice them as much when at home, because I go off and do something. With no highlights of other games, they just killed the excitement in the crowd. Would I do it again? Yes, if the tickets were free. Would I pay $250 for a ticket again? No.

I sat in row 19 in the lower bowl. Considering it was a corner seat, I had an excellent view of the action. But why was my ticket scanned, AND yet the stub still had to be torn off?

games were great. staff was helpful. except for the guy who told me i couldn't bring my backpack in...which i use as a purse. i sat next to 2 kids who both had backpacks, filled with water they brought in. (i had been told i couldn't bring my own water.) i later saw that they let 2 guys in with 2 duffle suitcases. what? I DON'T UNDERSTAND. i spent an hour taking my backpack back to my car, trying to buy a tote to carry my stuff in, getting back to the site. i was not cool and relaxed and reading my info in time for tip off. ick.

2 of the 4 games were nail-biters and the other two were indoubt most of the way
