I'd buy a Replica of these in a heartbeat! I was really disappointed they didn't make a form of this the 3rd jersey and did the "Nodak" instead...

It looks like Locally tonight's game is on AT&T Sportsnet (I think the new Root Sports), so tonight should be an actual broadcast. Tomorrow night's game just shows radio so will probably be the crappy feed. (From the CC Tigers Schedule)

Also on the "All Things Fighting Sioux" Facebook Group it sounds like there are plans to meet at Tony's before the games. If memory serves me right they have a Sioux Jersey hanging above the front door...

My Girlfriend and I will be there. Coming down from Denver for the series and got an Airbnb down the street from the Arena. We usually hit up Phantom Canyon Brewery and then Tejon St before the games. As far as Pikes Peak or the incline be careful about weather conditions. We're finally supposed to get a little snow Thurs Night into Fri morning. The Incline is steep and can get icy (From lots of foot traffic) as it's basically railroad tie stairs. If you do the incline you can do the incline up and take the Barr Trail back down to the bottom (Which is a normal trail and not steep like the incline) Also Pikes Peak you might not be able to drive up it if the Road is closed for the season, but they do have a Cog Train you can take to the top as long as it's running. There's a Summit House at the top with Food, Gifts, etc. and places to take pictures.

I picked my fam up at the TPA airport last night coming in for the game and the airport was FULL of Sioux fans!!

Haha down here in Tampa they are crazy. They have things called "Krewe's" which are like Social clubs of people that dress up like Pirates for the different holidays and festivals. They have a huge holiday every year akin to Mardi Gras called "Gasparilla" where they have a pirate ship come into the Bay and have a parade and a huge flotilla of party boats. basically a reason to dress up like Pirates and Drink...

Just wanted to add that the NCAA website now shows the "Frozen Four Events" Schedule FROZEN FOUR SCHEDULE OF EVENTS ALL EVENTS FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC April 6, 11 a.m. - 3:45 p.m. Open Team Practices Amalie Arena April 7, 2:30 - 8:30 p.m. Frozen Fest Amalie Arena West Plaza April 7, 3:30 & 6 p.m. Red Carpet Team Arrivals Amalie Arena April 8, 4 - 5 p.m. NCAA Team Autograph Sessions Franklin Street Mall- Tampa Theatre April 8, 5 - 6:30 p.m. Hobey Baker Award Presentation Tampa Theatre April 9, 12:30 - 2:30 p.m. Open Skate Amalie Arena April 9, 4 - 8 p.m. Frozen Fest Amalie Arena West Plaza April 9, 6:30 p.m. Red Carpet Team Arrivals Amalie Arena Also an FYI Franklin Street Mall (Where Autograph Sessions and Hobey Baker Pres.

Hattrick's Website: http://www.sportsbartampa.com/

They usually have beer carts (and a Corona tiki-bar) in Thunder Alley (plaza in front of main entrance). As long as you can leave and reenter they should have those open.

Ready to see Amalie Arena in Green and White!!!!

There will be scalpers up and down Channelside Dr. (the road the Arena and Ferg's Live is on) also after the Thurs. games, the Championship tix should be easy to come by from the losing teams fans unloading them...

Sioux Fan Here who lives in St. Pete, FL (Whole family are UND Alum. and from Grand Forks originally) My brother and his son are coming down so we can go!! All suggestions given so far seem spot on and if anyone has questions I can help as well! One unfortunate thing no one has seemed to mention yet is if BC is represented anything like any other Boston Sports teams (Bruins and Red Sox), there will be a decent amount of obnoxious Bostonians (Transplants who live here now and their annoying brethren). I'm sure the Sioux fans will still outnumber everyone else by far!!!! I'm ready to see #8!!!!!!
