No mid tournament break, so that's good.... time to bring it back to boardwalk hall.

A few days ago we made a last minute decision to check out Pittsburgh over memorial day. Seems impossible this news is a coincidence.

Pittsburgh also just selected to host the NFL draft in 2026. Up and coming city.

I love Pittsburgh. My wife has family in Mount Lebanon. Always make a trip into the city when when we visit.

Pittsburgh is a fine place for it to be held. I just wish they'd stop moving it around so damn much. I don't see how Brooklyn can possibly be worth the drawbacks associated with it, but there's really no perfect venue for the A-10 as it stands currently.
I liked it being in AC, but let's not act like that was a perfect venue either, and AC certainly isn't in a MORE advantageous position to host it now than when it was last in Atlantic City, over 10 years ago. People who suggest the Palestra are not exactly in sync with the modern requirements of a 14 team, 5 day tournament. DC, Pittsburgh, maybe Wells Fargo Center, these are all essentially equal in terms of viability as an A-10 tournament site, in my eyes.

Personally I liked Brooklyn the best but I can see why everyone else wouldn't.

Might actually try to talk the family into this one. Do wish it was in AC.
