I had the most fun at the San Antonio Final Four. Everything was a walkable distance and the best part was everyone - fans, other coaches who were attending the Final Four, and the media - were hanging out at the River Walk. The River Walk is just big enough to fit everyone but small enough so that things aren't spread out. Places like Glendale, Dallas, and Houston kind of stink because there's no gathering spot for everyone that is walkable to everyone's hotel and walkable to the stadium the games are at. Plus the weather is decent at that time of year.

New Orleans is good for the same reasons with even more places to eat/drink since the French Quarter is right there. And plenty of hotels. I went in 2003 just to go to the Final Four and stayed at The Intercontinental for like $150 a night. I bet the same type of hotel for the Final Four in a smaller place with less hotel rooms, like Indianapolis, is probably $1000/night.  We were going to go to a Final Four in Indy once and there were absolutely no hotel rooms downtown that were available. Just too small of a place.
