as of today at noon, sister school florida was allowing people to get tickets to sat night game and monday night game for like 44 bucks or something. bottom line... if you want to go to this, then call the schools that are in it and ask for tickets.

I've never been to Omaha but in my mind's eye I imagine it as a slightly newer Wichita. Accurate?

LOL, nah. Wichita is pretty clearly the worst of Omaha, DSM, Tulsa, Colorado Springs. I haven't been long enough to know but I'd guess the only similarly sized regional city that is just as shitty is Little Rock.

I've said this before but I think Wichita sucks so much crap when compared to their peer cities is the local business community is as disengaged with the civic improvement as anywhere I've ever seen. Usually the large businesses have a stake in making sure their city is a pleasant place to live for their employees. The airline industry and Koch seemingly doesn't give two fucks about Wichita, other than the cheap land and tax breaks.

You aren’t asking me but I can’t really think of any tbh. It’s just some town with no geography going for it. It’s very plain. But it’s very nice IMO. Good economy, local music, and film for the size of the place. And feels like a smaller town than it is I think. It’s perfect for the CWS. Obviously biased though.

You think SD would have stayed and raised a family in a Wichita esque city?  Doesn’t compute.

I surmised NuWichita, not Witchita esque. Also, don't wave your hand so dismissively at the Sedgwick County Zoo.

The Sedgwick County Zoo is the tits, as is Tanganyika Wildlife Park.

Wichita's peer cities are Pueblo, Amarillo, Lubbock, and El Paso.
