The single session makes it really hard on MAC fans who want to catch all four games Thursday. Can't get out of Rocket Mortgage to grab a meal.

I agree that this sucks and you're definitely paying more for food and drink trapped in an arena. That said, there are some solid local options in the arena. Market at the Fig is a good one. B Spot and Saucy are also locally based and offer fare that's not dissimilar to what you'd find in stumbling distance.

Completely agree. I'll be there supporting Ohio and UB. Bulls play at 1:30 with the Bobcats playing in the last game of the day. Considered buying an additional pair of tickets so I could leave the arena at some point but decided against it. Sucks but it is what it is. Huge props to my wife putting up with four consecutive games!

I'm sure I'll find some good food in the arena. Thanks for the suggestions. They've added restaurants in recent years.

I like Elmores Smokehouse as well.

I wonder how many will be open and serving food during the tournament. I could easily see them being closed for lunch at least.

Unfortunately a great point. We might be limited to dirty water hot dogs and 1-2 stands being open given the likely sparse attendance.

Just found out they will allow reentry today. I Forgot my glasses in my car. They had me goto the Cliffs entrance (near team shop) and ask one of the event workers and they scanned my ticket out so I could re-enter.

Glad they came to their senses (somewhat) with this solution. I was about to ask if they had a stamp option or something similar
