The post Experience the Excitement of College Basketball at These Arenas appeared first on Traveler Dreams.
]]>Add these arenas to your list if you want to have your own memorable college basketball experience in the United States.
Kentucky’s Rupp Arena is one of the craziest arenas in college basketball, packing in 23,500 fans on an every game basis to cheer on the Big Blue. Stars like Anthony Davis and Tyler Herro have been a couple of the many famous players to play at this electric arena recently.
Are you looking for an intimate college basketball experience? If so, Cameron Indoor Stadium, the home of the Duke Blue Devils which seats only 9,291 is unbeatable. It might be hard to find tickets, but if you can, you’ll see the action from amazingly close up along with thousands of “Cameron Crazies.”
The old saying says “Beware of the Phog,” and that statement runs true for the opponents who are forced to match up with the Kansas Jayhawks. Why? The crazy Kansas fans that pack into this decades-old arena create a gameday atmosphere that is unrivaled.

]]>The first of the three towns on the old Mother Road in Kansas is probably the most interesting one. Make a pit stop at Cars on the Route, an old Kan-O-Tex service station, which is also home to “Tow Tater,” who inspired the character of “Tow Mater” on Pixar’s Cars.
On your way out of Galena, you’ll see an old Missouri-Kansas-Texas railroad depot, the home of the Galena Mining & Historical Museum. It’s a rather cool stop along the way, with plenty of awesome photo ops!

The Eisler Brothers Old Riverton Store, which serves as the Route 66 Association of Kansas, has been there since 1925, a year before Route 66 was even designated. It is one of the most authentic, still operating 75-year-old stores of its kind. Buy some groceries or grab a sandwich at the old-time deli, and even buy some Route 66 memorabilia.
On your way into Baxter Spring, you’ll be driving on the Brush Creek Bridge, also known as the Rainbow Bridge. It is the last bridge of its type on Route 66, and its been there since 1923.
Feeling peckish? It must be time for lunch! Make a stop at Angels on the Route, a building that has gone through many reincarnations, from a dry goods store to a drug store, treasure shop and a donut shop. Now it’s a restaurant with some awesome food. If you find yourself there on Friday or Saturday, you’re in luck! They offer live music.

After you filled your belly, fill your tank at the Baxter Springs Independent Oil and Gas Service Station.
Finally, learn something new at the Baxter Springs Heritage Center and Museum, with 20,000 square feet on exhibits on the history of the city – from Native Americans through the Civil War, both World Wars, the history of Route 66 and more.
