  • Drake Road Trip

    Anyone else headed up to Des Moines on Jan. 25th? Any suggestions on hotels? I checked the MVC website for team hotels, but couldn't find anything. Mrs. SPESA, Baby SPESA and I are going to be staying that evening as we have friends coming in from the surrounding area to meet us for dinner and possibly the game.

    I will be there with our normal group and plan to hit up The West End for some pregame drinks. Hopefully we will get there around 5:00-5:30. Come and join us if you want.

      Don't judge us for bringing the little one :)

        I've been thinking about driving over but have not yet made any plans.

          There are still tickets available at last check. Was thinking of buying another pair, so you should absolutely join if you're feeling up to the drive from O-town.

              This would be a very fun year for road trips.

              I was very disappointed that the Loyola road game falls on a weekday this year. I would have flown to CHI in a heartbeat if it had been a Saturday/Sunday game.

              Other than the Ramblers and Bulldogs, the MVC is not a terribly road trip friendly conference. Too many podunk towns with few, if any, flights. I look forward to that changing when we switch leagues.

              :D

                  Which hotel is the team hotel?

                  Also, the West End (mentioned above) is a dive bar literally a couple hundred yards from the arena. West End, US Post Office, Knapp Center.

                    Ditto. We will have 6 of us at the Missouri State game Saturday and we may do the game at Cedar Falls as well.
