My Basketball Bucket List

Places I would love to see a game before I die (in no real order):

1) The Palestra
2) Rupp Arena
3) Allen Fieldhouse
4) Gallagher-Iba Arena
5) Cameron Indoor Stadium (gotta see what all that fuss is about I guess)
6) Assembly Hall (Indiana, not Illinois)
7) Pauley Pavilion
8) The Dean Smith Center
9) Kohl Center, not much historical significance but a bunch of drunk Wisconsin folk? Not much more could be that entertaining

And last but not least:
10) The Pit -- the U New Mexico version, not the Oregon ripoff.

I would have loved to go to an actual basketball game in Stokely too...

Been to two on your list:

Cameron obviously has the great atmosphere...but is a down right dump..finally got AC put in a few yrs back.

Dean Dome is nice..and will have a great atmosphere for the Dook game..but mostly it's just in spurts...played my last game there for the HS State Championship.

The pit would be cool....looks like an awesome place to watch a game...

Good list, if you go to Cameron....Get ready to sweat, the place is neat though....Dean Dome is huge, as is Rupp...Assembly is neat as long as you don't get stuck in the 300section..

I wanted to go see UT at Rupp this year. Glad I didn't.

I've always wanted to see a UT Bama game in Bama (football). I was going to go this year but I changed my mind at the last minute.
