Re: 2005 Midwest Regional

What did everyone think about the venue?

I, personally didn't really enjoy it. I think the staff there made it kind of unenjoyable...though they were just doing their jobs, I think it was their policy. I see the danger about sitting on stairs, but they were being sort of "staircase Nazis." I couldn't stand at the top of the stairs without being told to move when it was obvious that no seats were available. Also the food was VERY expensive, but what do you expect from a place like that? We did find some cheap local restaurants. Another thing was about what door to enter through. For some unknown reason, they would not let us enter from the side, they told everyone to go through the front and blah blah blah...I didn't see any reason for that. Gahh...and more...Wildstang's beach ball...They were throwing it up like at any other sporting event, but appearantly the staff didn't like it, so they deflated it. I could probably go on and on about UIC, but I won't. I don't want to sound too negative about it, I just wanted to freely voice my opinion.
