Lol Chicago Sams was a shattered glass landmine after the game. Luckily we were in a booth near the door.

St Joe's- Caesar's Palace bar
Nova- Las Vegas airport bar
Iowa St- Friend's house
Mich St- CC's O'Briens
Florida-My house(upstairs w/friends)

So Sunday night I realized I had watched each game at different place and I was trying to figure out a new place for championship game. I finally decided I watched the Florida game upstairs with company. Monday night it was just going to be me and my wife so I could watch downstairs and I could count it as a different place.

It was basically just one giant (but awesome) anxiety attack

St Joes - home with friends
Villanova - home with friends
Iowa State - At MSG
Michigan State - At MSG
Florida - In Gampel
Kentucky - In Gampel

I suppose the pattern worked well. MSG and Gampel were equally as exciting. But the post-game at UConn was, well, fun.

Watched most of the tournament games at home.

I'm such a die-hard uconn fan that when it comes to the big games I can't be anywhere in public (bars,etc) because I can't stand listening to the fake/shallow fans or band-wagoners who spew bullsh!t when they really have no idea what they're talking about.
Or when the team starts doing bad I can't listen to someone talk about our players.

Rather watch in peace at home.

At home with wife and one of my sons. I can't believe the floor joists didn't break with all of us jumping around after every play. We were LOUD!

St joes- at game in buffalo
Nova - at game in buffalo
Iowa st- backstage at toads place before gig
Mich state- at MSG
Florida - at home for most and final 8 minutes watched with iPad on my dashboard while driving to gig
Kentucky - at home - pulled the mojo trick I never, ever Go to the well for, hadn't used it since 2004 in the BET and FF against Pitt and Duke respectively. Where at the 4 minute mark of both games with us down big I would go to my daughters room. Turn the game on her small TV and hold her. It worked both times. I then used it in game 4 and 5 of sox/ yanks in 04. I put it away never to be used again. Didn't want to cheapen that magic.
Well, at the under 8 against Kentucky , clinging to a 1 point lead, I left the Den where I was watching the game with wife and went up to daughters room turned on game and held her. A bit more difficult as she was 3 in 04 and is 13 now. She thinks I'm a raving lunatic, but she humored me.
It worked.

All in my apartment here in Bangkok. It's 11 hours ahead here so the game times were inconvenient and not compatible with beer drinking. They re-aired the NC game in the evening the day after, though, so I opened a Singha and watched calmly with a contented smile on my face.
