Distance: About 7-8 miles from Ford Center

Season Tickets: Will be getting them for the first time this season. Have gotten the 5 game packages in the past due to my old job working nights, now with the new job I'll have many more chances to go to games.

Arch Madness: Went for the first time this past year. To anyone who has not gone, do yourself a favor and go. Regardless of what team they supported I had nice conversations with many fanbases throughout the weekend. It's a celebration of this league and I hope to make it a yearly trip.

Road Games: In previous seasons have gone to road games at SIU and Indiana State. Would like to hit every road arena at some point.

875 Miles / I think not / No

If the Aces play within 4 hours of me I will drive to see them.

Been to Terre Haute matter of fact was at the last game the 1977 Aces played before their plane crash on Dec. 13, 1977.

I live 13 miles from the Peoria Civic Center. I grew up with my dad always having season tickets. I used to get the mini season ticket package. But my kids were both so busy with school activities that I stopped that. My dad has an almost impossible time getting anyone to go to games with him anymore.(Because of the state of the program-not him) I only attended maybe 4 games last year. It wasn't that enjoyable, but I did go to one of the best games of the year. I am hoping this years Bradley team can at least be competitive and give fans some hope. I am very surprised at the quality of recruit we are involved with so late in the year. Hopefully we sign two more that can help on the front line.
I won't be buying season tickets for at least 4 or 5 more years though.

Have never attended the tourney. Have friends and family that go every year- but I can't get off work, too many people from work get to go first.

15 miles

Yes on season tickets

Since 2007, I have attended arch madness 2 out of every 3 years. I wished it was in KC, I hate STL.

35 miles
Season Tickets: No...but attend nearly every home game. I want flexibility as to the number of tickets for each game. I often go alone but sometime bring along 10 people.
Arch Madness: Every Year
