The Final Four is officially underway in Glendale, Arizona. These semifinal matchups are quite unique as they include two schools that are making their first ever visit to the Final Four, a school making their first visit since 1939 and then you’ve got UNC, a school that makes it’s visit quite regularly.
A chance to view the Final Four in person is definitely on most basketball fans' bucket lists, but, is being at the game actually worth it?
This year the Final Four is being played at University of Phoenix, in Glendale, Arizona, home of the Arizona Cardinals. Yes, the games are being played in a football stadium. The Final Four venues aren’t made for basketball games and have been played in football domes every year since 1996.
It’s not like part of the football stadium is cut off to eliminate seats that are basically impossible to see the court from. All 63,400 seats are available and while that seems realistic for a wide football field, trying to watch 10 players on a basketball court might be rather difficult.
It’s fair to say, sports fans will do anything to see their team in action. At least nosebleed seats won’t break your bank in comparison to courtside tickets.
Here’s to hoping that those fans with these types of views brought a set of binoculars. Or maybe they’re just better off watching from a local bar in Glendale.
