Good pre-game spots for the FF in San Antonio?

[HornLivin]

Hey, I was wondering if any of you could give me some input on good places to go before the Final Four games kick off on Saturday. I went to a FF once before in Indianapolis and was able to find the hotel/center where all the coaches stay. It seemed like literally every Division 1 coach was there, in addition to other celebs and some players. Even saw Rick Barnes and got to talk with him, pretty sweet. I have a ticket to the Fan experience at the Henry B. Gonzalex Convention Center but not sure that will be the best spot. Thanks guys.

This is easy,
Just go down to the Riverwalk in Downtown SA. The resturants and bars will be filled with fans, and you can walk from bar to bar or just hang out on the Riverwalk and take in the mayhem. The AlamoDome is within walking distance from any downtown hotel, the Riverwalk, the Alamo etc. We are very fan friendly down here. Grab a Rio Rita at the Rio Cantina near the corner of Commerce and Losoya. Take the steps down to river walk level ( below street level and enjoy the sights. Riverwalk is packed with bars and resturants

At the Rivercenter Mall there is a large turnaround area for the boat rides. This circular path takes the boats along three faces of the surrounding buildings and is used for such events like pep rallies for the Alamo Bowl.

I'm guessing that's where most of the pre-FF hollering sessions will be.
