Tuesday - Volunteering & Fans arriving

Just got back from fan information volunteering....some of the most fun I have with other fans. Great time telling them about KC, where to eat, etc. You can really see how much they appreciate the suggestions since many of them are from a smaller city than KC....and how great we now have options to give them.

Free practice was today and the first game is tomorrow....fan fest was just getting setup as I walked to the hotel today...looks like it will be a lot of fun if the weather allows it.

I'll do most of my midday updates with twitter which you can follow to the right. Probably once a night I'll update the blog with the day's events.

Most fans I saw today were from Texas Tech (surprising) and Oklahoma State. Mostly 55+ which is expected when the tournament starts on a Tuesday.

First game 11am between Tech and Colorado...expecting a Dallas type crowd....nobody.

Only pic I took today:

Big 12 arriving

Big 12 teams and fans begin arriving today for the tournament in KC.  Should be a great time and I'll be blogging/tweeting live the whole time bringing comments, pics, videos, whatever.  Great time for KC, wish the weather would play nice...but after this winter, at least it's not raining.

Later.  Check back often for updates or better yet jump on twitter and follow @downtownkc as I will be updating that more frequently.
