NCAA Men's Basketball Championship Tickets

Columbia was a really superb venue. People were really friendly and the organizers did a great job in arranging the Convention Center into a greeting area and "entertainment experience" prior to and between the game sessions. The Vista Area offered many and varied entertainment and dining options which were, pleasantly, not overpriced. The games themselves were not entertaining, save for the battle between Duke and Central Florida. Oklahoma-Ole Miss, VCU-Central Florida, and the two 1 Seeds versus 16 Seeds were just plain dull. The NCAA does have to do something about the Price Gouging by the various hotels nearest to the venue - $400/night is just plain ridiculous for any hotel room in Columbia S.C. The hotel we stayed in - the Hyatt Place - offered acceptable accommodations, with pleasant personnel, but it just was not a value for the money. The same is going to be true for the Cleveland area in 2020 as we were shocked by the hotel prices as we booked for next year.

Best sporting event of the year. Nothing rivals the excitement and enthusiasm of college basketball.

On line purchase of tickets easy and straight forward; tickets delivered on time. Highly recommend!

Best basketball tournament ever. 3 upsets. Great games and fans. We will do it again.

We had to stand in the rain between sessions 1 and 2 while they emptied the arena. Then they started the first game of second session before most of the people we back in the arena. Tickets were not cheap, officials should have waited longer for people to reenter.

Tournament was great with exciting games. The Vystar Veterans Arena was very nice with easy access into and out of the facility and its adjacent parking garages. Our only complaint was that the facility was cold - at various times the AC would turn on and the cold air would blast down from the vents in the ceiling. Also curious to encounter a long lines to access the men's restroom; my wife had no complaints abut the ladies room.

It was fun although I was hoping the higher seeded teams to win the first round making the second round more exciting.

Had a great time in Tulsa! The games were fantastic; team won. Our seating was in a good location. Thank you for a great experience!

Had a fantastic time, cross one more thing off my bucket list ... exciting games , meet some great people... and just had an awesome time .. seats were great and the NCAA experience ( BMW LOUNGE) were amazing!!!...👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

What an amazing game to be at. Win or Go home. #1 overall seed. Best prospect since LBJ or KD. Zion Vs. Mount Tacko. One point game. Duke on the ropes. Would have been great on TV, but was so much better being there in person.

Great Times! I liked that there was security to keep it safe for children attending!

Tulsa and the BOK Center did a magnificent job of hosting the NCAA Basketball 1st and 2nd rounds. Had a great time with my Dad, my wife and one of my friends.

A great experience as always! Three out of four games on Thursday (Kentucky/Abiline Christian being the exception), went down to the end. The arena was electric and everyone was on their feet at the end. Both games on Saturday were the same. Very competitive and close games that weren't decided until the last few seconds. Lines to purchase beer and/or food moved pretty well. The only thing that might have been better....... the merchandise sold very quickly and they were running out of things even before Saturday. I went to buy a ballcap during the first game on Saturday and they were sold out. More colors for the shirts would have been nice too. Overall, an awesome experience! Great crowds, great games, and a great venue. I only wish it was held in Jacksonville more often!

The price is reasonable considering you're seeing 6 games over 2 days. The Columbus location is ideal. Plenty of restaurants and parking. Great atmosphere with the pep bands, cheerleaders and fans. The arena staff was very helpful.

Nationwide Arena was really a great place. Loved the variety of concession stands, the roomy concourse on lower level, and the seating. After going to NCAA tourney games for 41 straight years, glad the NCAA finally woke up and now allow alcohol sales. About time they entered the 21st Century.

I didn't receive my tickets in the mail,they were returned due to an address mixup. I emailed Ticketmaster, a real person actually responded. I was told to go to the Box office where i received my tickets after a short 10 minute wait. BIGUPS TICKETMASTER

This is my 8th NCAA Men’s Basketball March Madness experience. They have all been very entertaining. I have seen some epic Cinderella victories which is why I keep coming back. The event staff and vendors were great. The big disappointment is the internet connectivity at the arena. You can’t post to social media or get sports scores. JaxArena would needs to upgrade! Other venues I have gone to over the years do much, much better. I will be back to March Madness but I won’t be choosing JaxArena again!

This facility is the campus home for the University of South Carolina basketball teams and is located on the edge of campus. A plus for this site is its nearness to downtown Columbia and the Gervais street entertainment/restaurant corridor. This these factors allow for getting something to eat between sessions 1 and 2. Sites with few eateries around makes for very large crowds at these few eateries. Since we know CBS televising schedule provides NO provision for overtime games in session 1, if that had occurred fans MIGHT have had a chance to get something to eat and still get back into the arena before the start of session 2 games.

I truly enjoyed the experience and always choose a weekend site every year for this tournament. Nationwide Arena is a great venue to view basketball. All aspects of the experience (entry, public space, food, parking, etc.) is great .... except, I really wish we had been given more information on the scoreboards. Where are the stats (more details) and where are the SCORES of other games? I have been in other arenas where this is posted; not here. Please include that next time ....disappointed.

Nothing takes the place of actually being there at the game.
