Correction: 71 venues for Bucknell men.
I counted the Verizon Center in DC twice, as I'd seen them play George Mason there in 2006 in addition to the 2011 NCAA tournament game.

Doctor, WOW!!! That is impressive. You have "wasted" a lot of time. I like it!
Cannot believe I forgot Dallas Reunion Arena (Bucknell vs Syracuse in NCAAs). Also, failed to mention that I have seen games in multiple venues at Navy and George Mason. This was such a fun exercise for an old CBB fanatic. As one who cannot remember what I had for dinner last night, it is amazing how many memories come flooding back when thinking about the different games at these arenas. Like the earlier game at George Mason I just referenced ... first game of the Bison's 84-85 season; it was the same day as Doug Flutie's miracle TD pass against Miami which was all of the buzz in the gym for opening night of a basketball season. It's crazy the things we remember.
Doctor, I forgot about attending that game also. 5 guys in a car for 22 hours straight (each way) was stinky, but it was a great time!
New season, new team, new dream . . . |

I just quickly counted 32 during my "playing" days. I will list them in a second post later, with all the other places as well. I'm sure I haven't hit the rarefied air of BRW yet.
But I don't think anyone mentioned that "wonderful" neutral court for the Patriot League Tournament - The Show Place Arena in Upper Marlboro, MD. Home of the PLC from 2002-2004.
I too am counting all the places I have personally been to see a College Basketball game, including tournament venues.

Yes! Good one. I also attended an NEC championship in Trenton's Sovereign Arena. And I cannot believe I forgot one of my most enjoyable experiences ever ... getting to meet Dean Smith when Towson "hosted" North Carolina at the old Hersheypark Arena. Coach Smith tried to play a game in the home area of each senior. The game in Hershey was for Carlisle's Jeff Lebo.

I like the guess, but it's Holy Cross.

I'm jealous of DoCtoR62 and Bison137's trips to historic Rose Hill Gym at Fordham. We haven't played them since '95 and it's long overdue!

I saw Lafayette at Fordham in the late '80s. It was nothing to be jealous over. :-)
