“With kindest regards to Dr. Forrest C. Allen, the father of basketball coaching, from the father of the game.”

Oh, when I saw your post subject thought you were heading to KC. Would imagine the crowd will be mostly KU fans. I read somewhere about the Baylor band rooting for MSU. Also read in Tulsa paper where Baylor asked fans to root for KU. Didn't really matter, since 90% of the Sunday KU game crowd were KU fans. Unfortunately, we had a group of about 6 in the row behind - they were rooting for MSU since the guy got a Masters from IU. That was understandable, but for some reason, they also rooted loudly for USC. I almost asked the guy if he had gotten a degree from some Pac 12 school too. Thankfully Baylor shut them up in the end.

Just got two tickets to the games (plural) through KUEA. Have to go since I attended The Tulsa sub-regional. My KU graduate (three degrees), non-sports liking better half decided she wanted to attend, a miracle. The stars are lining up.

Mrs Hoshi wanting to "Go to Kansas City" is a SUPER good omen!

AGREED, Wheaty!

hoshi, tell Mrs h to be sure to bring all her good KU Karma with her!
(As WSG already noted, just her wanting to be here is a great start!)
