Final Four Fan Fest

Family had a great experience. Can t wait for it to return to SA!

Awesome experience, lots of activities for all ages however need more seats to rest!

The event was awesome, as there was plenty to see and do inside the venue. The times for certain important things overlapped, such as for basketball legend signings, so I wish this would have been better managed, for fans that wanted to be able to meet & greet everyone in attendance. Also, there should have been more food options, particularly from the corporate sponsors there such as Wendy's, Buffalo Wild Wings, and Pizza Hut. Instead there were basic kiosk-type concessions with very limited menu options. Patrons were forced to go to other already-packed restaurants around the Riverwalk to grab a bite. Otherwise, the event was amazing and will definitely go the next time it rolls in to town.

I enjoyed all of the activities offered...My only criticism was that no recreational play of basketball was available. In prior Final 4's there were multiple courts for rec. play...just the chance to play against people from other regions of our country is cool.

San Antonio was fantastic ..... location .... all events within walking distance ..... weather ..... concerts ..... (bands) ....fan fest ... games ..... easy (fast) entry into the Alamo Dome .... alternative bus ride options (although we didn't use) as we foung convenient and affordable parking just N of the stadium... my only complaint!! Where was the half time entertainment at the Championship game ...... watching cheerleaders dance ?? What a letdown ...... There's a million entertainment venues (at low or no cost .... if that's a problem) that could have been used !! THAT WAS DISAPPOINTING!! All-in-all ..... a great time had for 4 days of fun and Basketball ......

We had a great time few and participating in all the events.

The Fan Fest at Final Four in San Antonio was great. Venue was large enough for large crowds. Good selection of snacks and lots to do for all ages. San Antonio is Awesome, come back NCAA!!

An Awesome event ..lots to do ..had an amazing time..no worries regarding security..Thank you San Antonio

It was ok. The venue was great, and the proximity to the Alamodome made for a nice pre-game activity. As far as value goes, not so much. Tickets were available for free by purchasing a coke product at the local grocery, but not knowing that I paid $10 a person. This event wasn't worth that, but the cost didn't break the bank either. The music festival was open to the public (free), for what was on display at the fan fest, it should have also....

We were genuinely impressed with the layout for this event. Having our kids get in for free was not a new experience; however, having all of the kid friendly events/activities inside for free as well was awesome. They were able to participate in "dunk contests", rock climbing, face painting, coloring, TV time, etc. without a price tag attached to each. As a parent, it was nice to say yes all day and allow them to be kids. Our only disappointment came from the communication from Ticketmaster. When we went online to purchase our adult passes, it showed $0 for Capital One cardholders. I clicked the link and entered my Capital One card information only to be charged full price. When I contacted Ticketmaster regarding the charge they told me there were no refunds. We didn't even scan the tickets we paid for because Capital One handed us free passes upon arrival. Do better, Ticketmaster.

The event was extremely fun for the kids, as well as adults. Lots to do. Plenty of games. Only downside was the crowd size. If you don't like crowds, this isn't for you. Lines were longer than some amusement park rides...

Not very much for young children to do. It was very crowded. Actually except for throwing basketballs there wasn't much else to do.

Awesome event wish, it was and every year thing. Would love to go back again.

My family had a great time. There were lots of activities going on and the vibe was really great. The main concern we had was not knowing we needed the waiver signed prior to playing games until we were standing in line. It may have been more apparent if they had at least one waiver booth right near the entrance and it advertised clearly that you need to stop there first.

Great family experience especially for my 3 sons who all play basketball. Plenty to do for all ages. Will go again next year in San Antonio.

I am in the event business and I can say this event was so well organized and far better than expected!!. My son is 12 and enjoyed every second of Fan Fest. I would say this is a great event for kids up to about 14. If Fan Fest ever comes to your town it's a don't miss opportunity especially for the very reasonable pricing. Lots of fun with the family this day!

Great event.. There were many activities for the kids and the lineup of stars for autograph sessions was outstanding.

The event was great for all ages!! Family friendly and kids will have a blast. They gave away a lot of good prizes so it was worth the money.

Very reasonably priced and fun for all. Definitely recommend for any sports fan and for families with middle and high school children.

The Final Four Fan Fest was absolutely great, and I am glad that we had it in Houston this year! #H-Town

Great great great.. took my teens and my youngest 6, 7, and 8.. Everyone had a great time even the adults..

I have been to many final fours, but this was the first FanFest -- it lived up to the hype. It was a good way to spend the day prior to the final game -- many fun and innovative things to do, and all of it free! We had pics and videos taken and all were immediately accessible through websites - very cool. Also met famous coaches and former players.

My whole family had a blast. I have two kids who found so much to do they didn't want to leave at al.

Everything at the experience was phenomenal! We spent 2 days there as a family and made memories that will last a lifetime!

The final four experience was excellent but has a very corporate feel at the games. Fanfest was truly a great experience for the fan and the price was right.

Very well organized with a family friendly feel. Lots of different activities centered around basketball. Lots of good food and some live music. Only downside was I have younger kids (7 & 4) and most of the activities were geared towards older kids and adults. Still had a great time. Congrats to Indianapolis for hosting a wonderful event.

Overall this is a neat event with lots of things to do. The problem is 50k other people are there so expect to wait 1-2 hrs for each activity. Bottomline you can find a better way to spend your time

I enjoyed Fun Fest a great deal, but you need to come up with some plan that expedites autographs. The lines are long and move very slowly. One possiblity would be to have the celebrity autograph the document to be given in advance and then simply shake hands with each person as the document is handed out.

Fan fest had great events for all ages! The pep rally was great, and the set up was mostly terrific with all the activities and celebrity guests! Only downside in my view was that upon entering, the line was ridiculously long, only to find out there was only one entrance. With that many people, it could have been more organized. There were SO many people wondering where to go to get in line, and going into the special entrance line for Capital One cardholders. It was a minor inconvenience to an otherwise fantastic event for basketball fans.
