Subject: Buffalo could back out in 2005
In reply to: STAGAL 's message, "Why not Bridgeport then in '06?" on 09:53:39 02/26/03 Wed

My understanding is that with the sale of the financially troubled Buffalo Sabres/Arena that the owners of the Arena might not want to continue the Contract with the MAAC. Especially since the Buffalo arena put up a big $ guarentee, so big of a guarentee, that it guarenttees the Buffalo arena to lose money on the MAAC Tourney.

If Buffalo does not want to backout, the tourney is there in 2005. If they do, Bridgeport would be interested.

Put the tournament in the garden and leave it there permanently. No home court advantages and the city to boot. Everybody loves the garden. Move the Big East tournament over a day or two.
