Thanksgiving week knocks me out from going to the Bahamas tournament, but curious who on here is going and what deal if any are they getting on rooms at the Baha Mar? I looked the other day out of curiosity and I'm seeing nothing less than $707 per night.

I'd love to go and looked into it. Prices during the holiday are insane so after looking into it for a family of 5 I said screw it.

I’m going. I would avoid the host resort if you’re looking to save. I booked next door at Bahama Breeze for around $300 a night.

I have a buddy who might go. Is the Bahama Breeze within walking distance of the Baha Mar?

It’s right next door to Baha Mar. If you click directions on Google, it says walking is 21 mins and driving is 4 is you take the actual road. However, I did earth view and it looks like you can cut through some pathways (tennis courts, etc) between the two resorts and get to the convention center where the games are played much quicker by foot.

That 1-off at APSU on Dec. 22 is a strange bit of scheduling. Seven hour ride if the weather is good and you don't hit traffic in Cincinnati or Louisville.

Lipscomb had no games scheduled between Dec 20 and Dec 30, just sayin' - and TSU didn't have anything from Dec 19 to Dec 28.
