Did anyone go to the MU event at the hotel yesterday and want to share their thoughts? My wife and I are driving down to Columbus tomorrow and deciding if we are going to go to the event at the hotel. Worth it? Is it really free beer? Did you get to see the team leave? How long before tip-off?

I went yesterday....we got to see every member of the team leave + coaches & Shaka.  MU Band was there & played the fight song & several other songs....cheerleaders were there too.  Well worth it.

Went to the reception then in a different part of the hotel but didn't have much time there as we wanted to get over to see the end of Mich St-USC game.  Food was mini Reuben sandwiches, Buffalo wings, egg rolls, veggies & fruit, meat and cheese & crackers & few other items.

Didn't get a drink at the bar there as it was pretty crowded....MU women's game was on the TVs and a lot of people were locked into it.

Event starts around 3:00....team usually leaves 1.5 hours before their game.  (So 3:45 probably tomorrow).

We are at the Pint House and Marquette is the most represented fandom here right now.

They are now out of Guinness. Make of that what you will.

I suspect there is a causality.

The send off and reception at the team hotel were great. The send off got started about 2 hours before game time.

The reception was pretty solid as well. I thought it was worth the $30. Food was decent, drinks were easy to get. Wound up having to grab a table in the downstairs area of the bar but that was just fine. Had enough time to watch the team leave, grab a bite and a few drinks while the MU women's game was wrapping up, then walked to the arena.

Where is everyone going to be pregame tomorrow?

[wadesworld]

Anybody have a good lunch recommendation for tomorrow that will have the games on? My brother is a Xavier grad so we'd like to watch that at lunch. Then maybe Graeter's after the Xavier game.

I enjoyed the Pint House today. Lots of TVs and Marquette was the most represented school.

R-Bar had plenty of good food options/pizzas.

Great MU representation.

Rolling down from CLE in the morning - first in person MU game in over a decade

Awesome, enjoy, bring home a W.

I agree that the reception was a lot of fun, the sendoff was well orchestrated and packed with fans.

Going to hit that up again today.

Yesterday I did Lox bagel in the morning- awesome spot the egg sandwich was great- and wolf ridge, citizens trust- great cocktail lounge and phenomenal old fashioned's- pins mechanical, parlay sports bar.
All were great, although I wasn't a huge fan of wolf ridge beer.
Columbus has impressed me more than I expected, it's a cool city.

[Go Warriors]

The Pint House was fun for sure.  Great french fries.

Game viewing is awesome at the Parlay bar on High Street. The bummer about that place is they don't have Miller Lite so I had to pound PBR.

Same! If you haven't made it down to the German village neighborhood yet it's a must. Was really cool

MU is taking "limited walk-ups" for the event. Bill Scholl will always be ready to take your $$$. The Sonesta lobby bar is where the fans congregate early and where the team passes for the bus trip. The alumni event is at the Sonesta restaurant across from the lobby (through the parking canopy). Food and drinks were plenty.

[Frenns Liquor Depot]

Have fun and bring home the W today. 

The east coast warriors are counting on you so we can all return to the garden later this week.

I was there years ago. Agree- it's really cool.
