Creighton Game on March 3rd

[CaribouJim]

Any reason that tip-off is listed as TBD? I have 10 tickets w/folks coming from all over the place and wanted to plan accordingly - got the hotel stuff all settled, but planning for lunch and/or dinner stuff.

TV thing?

Yep. FS1 has a day long event for BE games. Guess they want to put better games in certain time slots. In the meantime, we all wait. Guess they have to do something soon for the reasons you note.

Games that day are:

Creighton @ MU
G-Town @ Nova
SJU @ Friars
Butler @ SHU
X @ DePaul

[MU/Panther]

FS1 will not be showing any Big East games on March 3rd. FS1 has Xfinity Series Race from Las Vegas. UFC also from Las Vegas and Monster Energy Supercross from Atlanta.

The only Big East game that has a time is Xavier at DePaul at 11AM. That will be a FOX or FSN game.
FOX will air a triple header. 11AM, 1:30pm & 4PM. CBSSN get a 7pm game. I would think times will come out in mid-February.

10 guests?! How many leggy supermodels do you know? Caribou, you're a legend.

He only needs one hotel room--must have plenty of space. Leisure suit and gold chains are not optional.

Annual game with the gals we hung out with at MU - 6 gals and 4 guys - Ambassador Hotel - lunch before the game, dinner after with barhopping in between and we end the night at the Ambassador bar where we have to drink our parents drinks - I go with my mom's Dry Manhattan, up with a twist with Canadian whiskey or to simplify things, I just order a glass of lighter fluid. Good times - at least 15 years doing it.

And during Lent??? Shame.

No correction on the leisure suit and chains. Musta nailed it!

Taking after the MU S.I.D. at the end of Al's tenure - forget his name - wore the puka shell necklace.

Sounds like a great tradition Caribou. Haven't been to the Ambassador, but have heard good things about the place.
Enjoy the lighter fluid.

Puka shells very popular in our era after people returned from spring break. I was not one of them.

Think Kimpton Hotels - same vibe and when I was at MU it was more or less a house of ill repute. '81 grad bought it and fully renovated it.
