Here is your first round of travel info

I will try and build a food post for good local stuff
Key arena is downtown. Close to the needle. Prices of.hotels downtown will not be fun. Prices of hotels south of seattle will be better... but will have a 15-20 drive to arena

if flying into SeaTac, there is a tram that runs into downtown from the airport. but hotels are hard to find on the line. I suggest looking for hotels across lake Washington in Belleview, Renton. Or south in kent, or federal way.

You could possibly find a decent hotel north of downtown, across Lake Union; near or just above the university district. If you find a hotel around downtown or the university district, you could rent a bicycle. its the new thing too do around here. rent a bike from little hubs, ride them to the stadium, and return to another hub. cheap.

look for a hotel (google search hotels near Northgate in Seattle). this area has a massive mall... and will keep the Mrs. happy. from northgate to downtown, 10 minute cab ride south.

food:

http://www.ddir.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; cheap local favorite for burgers and frys

http://saltys.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; seafood!!!

http://palisaderestaurant.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; expensive seafood!!!

http://www.pikeplacemarket.org/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; many restaurants and things to do. good time, but its full of strange folk.

http://northlaketavern.com/home.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; this is real close to arena... friend tells me this is legendary pizza joint. With the huskies not in the tourney, this might be a good location for pregame activities. watch the video on the webpage

https://www.chowfoods.com/5-spot/menus" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; this is a chain of restaurants, "The Five Spot" is very close to the arena. bar on one side, restaurant on the other.

http://www.themetropolitangrill.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Landmark establishment. Never been there. Im betting its really expensive.

http://www.meltingpot.com/seattle/welcome" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; the melting pot. also close to the arena

Just had to cancel my flight now that game times are announced. Didn't give me enough time to get from the airport to the arena. All other options are now sold out or $$$$. ;(

Ouch man. Sucks. I wasn't going to be able to go. Still working on putting weight on my ankle.

That sucks man. My girlfriend won't be able to make it because she has a final (OSU does trimesters or quarters or whatever) at 730 am. No way to get from Corvallis to Seattle in that time.

Anyone know where the Wyoming fans are seated in key arena? Probably all over

 

[MrTitleist]

Go here, it's in Bellevue if you want to drive. You'll thank me.

Cool. I am looking at tickets but I might wait until morning to get them because they are supposed to be less expensive at the box office then on stub hub or any of those places online.

They seemed to jump around when i was watching them on StubHub. I think they opened around 150, then got up to 180 or so then backed down to 150 again so I jumped on those. Might be able to get em in that range still

I heard if you wait for the box office to open on Monday mornings you can get them cheaper. We will see. I saw 150 to 160 on stub hub also. Might end up going with those.

Lol... when you texted me the section number, I thought that was the price and about freaked out thinking it had gone up 50 bucks since the last time you checked. I was ready to buy then before the bidding started. Haha :lol:
