Fans, Alumni Plan for Final Four Fever

Wednesday, April 3, 2013, By Keith Kobland

With only 53,000 seats available at the Georgia Dome for the Final Four, it’s a safe bet many SU fans will be watching Saturday night’s SU-Michigan game on TV. Throughout the United States and abroad, there are opportunities to view with others who bleed orange. Alumni groups have been busy arranging viewing parties in most major cities. There’s even a chance to watch the game in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

The Office of Alumni Relations is updating the list as the big game draws near. Events are also planned in the host city of Atlanta, including a tailgate party before Saturday’s game against Michigan.
