    Can't go wrong with the Adam's Mark. I'm not sure if I'm able to go...and it's not b/c I don't want to. It's my favorite event of the year (outside of the NCAA playoffs/tournament).
    The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

          Are the Panthers going to be in the Adams Mark again this year? I heard they are on a rotating schedule with the teams and the hotels. Does anyone know what the plans are?

            I think we're scheduled to switch hotels this year, but I'm not sure what hotel we'll be at.

                Are we scheduled to switch next year again then?? I feel like we've been in the Adam's Mark forever.

                  We have been there forever....this will be the third year. They were going to switch last year...then it was this year. I had originally thought it was a 2 year rotation, but apparently not.

                    The Adam's Mark is a great location and a great hotel...but there are a ton of hotels to choose from. I think that UNI won the tourney while at the Marriot (now Hilton).

                      ok, so the Adam's Mark is where the team will be again this year right? I want to make sure we are at the team hotel.

                        My wife and I are planning on going to the tourney for the first time this year and we need some advice on good hotels close to the Savvis Center? Are there any in walking distance?

                        Thanks.

                          Anything downtown is pretty good. The UNI fans/team are staying at the Adam's Mark. Each school usually has it's own hotel that the team stays at (and thus the fans usually try to stay there too...although not always the case). I believe the Radisson was a very nice hotel. Basically, everything is within walking distance 5-10 blocks.

                            My first year was last year and we stayed at a hotel the was away from the action a bit...as the weekend progressed we ran into some friends that were staying at the Adam's Mark (where the team stays) and we were pretty envious...the atmosphere at the Team Hotel is AWESOME! I would suggest staying there. Rooms are about $100 +/- a night depending on what you want. Last year (my friend) was waiting for a taxi just as the team bus pulled up to pick the coaches up...there was some minimal conversation with Mac and he asked how they were gettting to the Areana, they replied, "Taxi" and Mac said, "No your not, come with us!" THey actually got to ride with the coaches on the team bus. Great memory for them. Anyway, just this Newb's two-cents.

                            BTW, season ticket holder should be getting their MVC order forms in the mail anyday now! $90 all session pass for the win!

                              I stayed at the Adam's Mark when I won my trip to the Tourney a few years back and I have to say it was Magnificent. Wireless Internet in every room and the view was awesome as well. The best part is it's right next to the ARCH (The Arch and river are across the street) which I never had a chance to get to when there, but that's okay. I think if I remember correctly it was something like 10 blocks, could be completely wrong, from there to the Savvis Center but it was BEAUTIFUL outside and it was a very Manageable loss. Luckily for me if I do go to the MVC Tourney (debating if I want to go to that or wait and see if we make the NCAA's) than I can probably stay with my former College roomate Larry since he lives in STL.

                              Man I already can't wait for March.
