RE: Buffalo info for visiting fans
Both Pearl Street Grille and City Grille should be within walking distance. Chippewa St. is the primary downtown bar district. If you don't mind driving a few miles, Elmwood Ave. near Buffalo St. College has a great set of bars too (bars I tend to prefer nowadays).

The Albright Knox is near the Elmwood Ave bar district is the main art museum if your looking to kill a few hours on Saturday. Obviously Niagara Falls is about a 20 min drive from downtown and it can't hurt to bring a passport and visit Canada for a few hours.

And if you make it to North Tonawanda, say hi to my family for me.

And they're both going to be packed.

The CVB is going to be running trolleys up to Elmwood and back between sessions on Friday. See the CVB link above.

At the moment I'm trying to dump my Session 1 tickets on some WVU fans though. 03-wink

They won't set those until sometime early Saturday I believe. When I went to both Buffalo and Cleveland for Thursday-Saturday games we did not know tip times for the 2nd round until after that site's 1st round games had been played.
