The reason people should have some hope in UConn playing at home is that yes UConn has 4 losses at home this year but 3 were last second shots where UConn was winning. The fourth was in OT without Boat. Four losses by 7 points (3 regulation games by 3 points).

Have to believe UConn has a very good shot at any game at home, even if some believe the teams are just better.

I was at that game. Heck I must have been all of 13 or 14, and now I'm in my late 40s. IIRC there were issues with how Hartford handled that round of games, and the NCAA never came back

You were 14 in 1990 and you are in your late 40's? I thought I was aging quickly....

Anyone know what is the cheapest garage for this event on Thursday near XL? Been parking at the convention center garage. Not a fun walk anymore.

Actually, since it was regarding the 1997 NCAA tournament in Hartford, he was 13 or 14 in 1997 and is now in his late 40s, lol.

Yes, that's worse case scenario. Hard to tell to which he was referring.

I remember those tournament games, too. I was 12 (and am now 30, not late 40s) I remember begging my mother to bring me to open practice to see "the greatest team ever, North Carolina" with Carter and Jamison. So naive.

Dirt lot on the other side of 84 off Main st. 6 bucks.

was UNC in Hartford for another round in the early 80s? I know I want to an early round NCAA game, and UNC was in it. I'm too lazy to Google.

Ok, I did Google, it was 1983 and UNC wasn't there. Years of hookers and blow have really done a number on my memory.

There are no cheap garages near. The Morgan St. Garage is cheap and closer but still a bit of an uphill walk.

The surface lots are $5 right off 84 and way easier to get out of.

 

[MattMang23]

I have a feeling the price of parking is gonna be higher just because most sessions are multiple games.

That's where I go, but they raised the price to $6. At least they clear the walks.
