Yesterday the NCAA announced the sites for the 2012 men’s basketball tournament and the Louisville Arena will host first and second-round games. The new arena is scheduled for completion in 2010, in time for the Louisville men’s and women’s basketball seasons. WDRB-TV’s Chris Turner has good story on the big news, along with a video package. The Arena’s advertising and sponsorship sales are handled by Learfield Sports’ Louisville Arena Sports & Entertainment Properties (LASEP).

    Clyde, it was nice to see the link to the arena story.

    Thank you from a Jeff City kid who was thrilled back in the 80s when Bob Priddy would take his audio cuts or wrap-arounds for the Missourinet. (The $2 checks bought many a burger and fries.)

    Come to think of it, that would still be a thrill — and an honor.
