Yearly March Madness Trip

March is usually a month that seems to drag on as we endure the last of the cold weather, waiting for warmer days. But for Bryce, March has been something to look forward to for the past several years. It marks the start of March Madness and the annual trip to the Big Ten Tournament with Bob and Susie. He eagerly anticipates this trip, diving into bracket predictions and obsessively watching players and games to stay informed. This year, the tournament was held in Chicago, and they stayed in an Airbnb within walking distance of the games, giving them a taste of downtown Chicago life. 

There is nothing quite like the atmosphere at the Big Ten Tournament. The energy is electric, the crowd is a sea of school colors, and the excitement is palpable. Whether it is a buzzer beater or an unexpected upset, every game they attend adds to the collection of unforgettable moments.

One of Bryce's highlights of this trip other than basketball (if you can believe that there could be anything else), is exploring the local food scene. Bryce is a food enthusiast and Bob and Susie love this! They are more than willing to research and scope out the best places to eat from hole in the wall joints to fine dining experiences. 



 

It takes a lot out of a person, watching that much basketball.

As each Christmas approaches Bryce looks forward to the wrapped gift that tells him where they will be staying and eating while they attend the Big Ten Tournament. This has truly become an unforgettable tradition for all of them.
