liberal= Seattleconservative= Spokanethere's about a 5 hr drive in between and a little mountain range called the Cascades

I would guess you would not get a walk-up ticket. Remember that this game is being played 6 hrs from Spokane. The scalpers are already on the loose. Gonzaga sold out their tourney in Las Vegas, their fans travel far and wide to see them, and will be in force.

Hi all,I'm from the Zags board. We're a pretty friendly lot over there, so do come over and post. I am sure the link has been posted somewhere else, but here it is again: http://www.guboards.spokesmanreview.com/I think I can say we are pretty excited to be playing you guys in the first round, and we wish you the best of luck. We don't normally overlook anyone, so do know that we will be prepared for a battle. The team seems to be peaking at just the right time (for once, and injury-free!), so expect our best, as we will expect nothing less from you guys. IWe can sympathize with you having to travel across the country for the first round, look what happened to us last year. It sucked. And I read on another thread that someone was disappointed with drawing Gonzaga, only because you would be interested in taking a stab at a BCS school instead. I totally agree with that. I wish the committee would stop pitting non-BCS teams against each other in the first round. Travel for us this time is a good thing. Our team will head to Portland on Tues via the team jet. The smallest of our players is 5'11" (frosh and a walk on) but most of our guys are 6'2", 6'5" and up. Our tallest guy is 7'5". Taking a bus for a 6 hour drive would be brutal. Here's a link to our official team site: http://www.gozags.com/sports/m-baskbl/gonz...askbl-body.htmlBtw, our lady Zags also won the WCC tourney and are dancing! Good luck to you and safe travels to Portland!
