SAN ANTONIO: Travel, Tickets, Dining and Viewing Plans

[Robbie Aces]

Fyi: In case you don't have a capital one CC... Fan Fest is only $10/ adult and kids are free. I would recommend downloading the NCAA Final 4 app. I've done so and there is a ton of information about all of the events surrounding the basketball games.

I missed the boat on the Loyola section due to work but just secured a pair in the nosebleeds baseline on the Loyola side. Let's do this.

Would you mind sharing what you paid for a seat.

Nosebleed baseline I think is in the 385-400 range for all 3 games

City of San Antonio Bicycle Program: Could come in handy getting from Alamodome to River Walk, etc.
Friday it's free. Just download the app.

So I called them up and on Friday, the 24 hour day pass will be free (normally it costs $12 for 24 hours)

If you ride the bike for over an hour then there is a usage fee. But as long as you keep returning the bikes under an hour it's free on Friday.

*You aren't allowed to ride the bike on the River Walk.

I had been looing on stubhub and primesport on Tuesday. Base prices were $290 and up. At one point someone posted the pair that I bought for $250 per seat on primesport. The total I paid after fees was $590 for the pair. Looks like they've dropped below $250 today on primesport. My only concern was it takes a few hours for primesport to confirm the order. They will authorize your credit card but won't charge it until they are sure the tickets are guaranteed.
