I'd love to see seat locations/member (section and row) number posted as people pick up their tickets so we get an idea of where we might be. I probably won't be able to pick up until about 5PM.
The only people we should try to get even with...

Folks, If you're coming from out of town and staying Wednesday (or later) you owe it to yourself to check out the most beautiful racetrack in the country. Keeneland will be running on Wednesday through Friday with post-times of 1:00. So, go grab a drink and bet the ponies!
About to leave Michigan! I'm concerned about not being able to get a poster, even tho I know they'll some inside to..if someone thinks they could pick one up for me, I'll have some cash to meet you with right when I get there.
I am getting ready here in Columbus, OH for my trip down to Lexington. I am leaving at 1PM ET. I have a pair of Reserved 10C seats. Any suggestions on where to park at the Arena? I have never been to Lexington before. I am scoping things out on Google Maps but any tips for the trip would be appreciated.

FYI for those headed to Lexington taking 71 South...it's packed right now, pretty slow going. I'm between Columbus and Cincy, going 35-40 mph for quite a while now.

Thanks for the heads up. Let us know when/where it starts to pick up again. Do you know if it is because of an accident or construction? Do you use the App Waze?

Yes, I'm on Waze, but not as an identified user. (Privacy concerns, etc.) You?
Looks like the backup is due to a convoy hauling a large industrial-size engine on flatbed. I finally passed it right before Jeffersonville. Which is right when the road goes from two lanes to three. Things are moving ahead of it. My guess is that things will be OK as long as the convoy is on parts of the road with three lanes, because you can get past the tractor-trailers. But I suspect the convoy will back things up again when it gets into construction just north of Cincy. Think of it as a moving blood clot on the 71 South artery!

Rupp arena has a big parking lot that you access from High Street. High Street is one way going West. It's right across the street from the arena.
Remember that we get 24K fans for every home basketball game so we're used to crowds this size.

Just left Indy. Lexington, I'm coming to drink all your craft beer, sing my lungs out, and meet some new friends. Looking forward to Long Road to open!

I was just curious if Waze was showing the reason for the slowdown. I was looking at Google Maps on my computer and it shows all green and I was curious if it was an accident, construction etc... I won't be leaving Columbus until 1PM so hopefully the convoy won't be an issue by then.

5 miles away...got a late start friends took me out last night for my bday eve ha... gotta get tickets and check into apartment...have a cold one waiting!
Getting ready to head downtown .....from my home, which is just a little over a mile from Rupp Arena. :-) <----- Ahh, it's SO nice to be able to say that. I moved to Lexington in '04, so I just missed their last appearance here in '03. Gonna be a great night!
I echo the Country Boy recommendation. Great craft brews, and as local as it gets. HopCat is nice, but I'm sure it'll be packed to the gills with a line to get in. Cheapside is a nice place, that's just a few blocks from Rupp -- nice outdoor seating area as well, included a covered outdoor/open air bar, and plenty of drinks available.
