I just returned from the Pontiac Final Four promotion and wanted to let you know everyone that assisted us did a fantastic job. Anbritt, Mike, & Crystal were totally under control in an otherwise out of control environment. They made the whole trip very organized and enjoyable. Because of your staff I will use your company in upcoming sport trips.

2006 Final Four

2009 Final Four --- Detroit, Michigan ---

---

The NCAA Division 1 College Basketball Tournament is one of the top sporting events in the United States, and the world.  The single elimination tournament dubbed "March Madness" traditionally is always an extremely popular event, mostly because of the unpredictability of the tournament.  Filling out tournament brackets has now become a staple in American sports culture.  The tournaments long tradition began in 1939, consisting of only eight teams. The current tournament structure for 64 teams came into play in 1985. 

The term "Final Four" refers to the remaining four teams in the Tournament, and typically provides some of the best games, as they tend to feature some of the top ranked teams in the country.  The 2008 Final Four was held in San Antonio, Texas, and concluded with the Kansas Jayhawks winning their third National Championship, defeating the Memphis Tigers. 

In 2009, the Final Four will be held in Detroit, Michigan at Ford Field, the home of the NFL's Detroit Lions.  Ford Field is one of the newest and most prestigious stadiums in the United States, as it hosted the Super Bowl in 2006.  Costing an estimated $450 Million, Ford Field is expandable up to 80,000 seats and has a very modern design, with large windows allowing sunlight to enter this indoor facility. 

Ford Field, along with Comerica park, the home of MLB's Detroit Tigers, were planned together with hopes to revamp Detroit's downtown area, as well as to bring the Lions back to Detroit, who had played their home games in Pontiac, MI since 1975.
