Went last year and saw USC win to advance to the Finals then watched Arizona win the national title.

Anyone else been?

I took the pilgrimage in '08 for the 1st team under Maineri after we finally beat Rice with a bases-clearing double by Blake Dean in the 9th 7-6. My brothers and I jumped around my grandma's den screaming and got on the road a few hours later.

Been a few times. First time was probably before half, around here, were born. It's been a lot of fun watching college baseball grow like it has over the past forty years. Omaha is definitely part of the reason - the experience and charm. It is unique in all of college sports - the purest game and venue remaining.

I went last year even though Stoney Brook ruined it for me. Still had a great time and wore my LSU colors the entire time.


It was hot as hell there.

4x. It's the best LSU away event for any sport.

Currently on my first trip. Awesome game today. Omaha is ugly as fugg. The whatever market district is awesome. Stadium is bad arse. Women are lacking but you gotta roll with the punches.

Tonight in the second game they did the wave. Second time around went slow motion. Took forever. Third time around was hyper turbo wave. Fourth time around, everyone froze. Everybody standing silent with their hands in the air. Followed it up with USA chant. Thats omaha. Haha.
