Hey gang - does anyone have a pointer to the annual downloadable Excel spreadsheet brackets?

They were posted briefly on Intermat yesterday, but then taken down.

2025 NCAA Wrestling Bracket - Fillout/Team Point & Individual Tracker

Last year I decided I wanted to see if I could make an excel file that to use for the 2024 NCAA Bracket to fill out and see how close I could get on projecting team points. This year I have upgraded the file a bit and have it ready for the 2025 tournament. This file can be used to either pick you...

Anyone know if they clear the lots between sessions? Would be tough with Xfinity Live and the casino all sharing lots, but not sure what standard protocol is.

I doubt it -- but would not be surprised if they check parking passes on any cars left between sessions.

Not a perfect comparison, but this summer my wife and I met some friends for a Phillies game. We then went out for dinner offsite; afterward we went home, they stayed for a concert at Wells Fargo. We parked at Citizens Bank Park, I think they parked at the arena. None of us had to move our cars.

Yeah, I've done multiple events before, but feel like this one is kinda different. Just not sure how they handle it with xfinity live and the casino right there too. Spothero, which I had never heard of before, has separate listings for each session so checking plates or whatever between would make sense. If parking is being run through the NCAA, making people pay twice would be like them.

Parking won't be run by the NCAA.

Worse -- run by the City of Philadelphia.

I called the Wells Fargo Center and they told me that parking is good for both sessions on March 20th.

You have to leave your car at the Wells Fargo Center. If you leave after the first session, you have to buy a new pass.

Hope this helps.

Just a heads up, Uber from the stadiums is usually jacked up after an event. I've seen $100-150 for a ride after a concert.

Oh yeah, there’s no doubt about that. Typically by the time we’re ready to get out of a place after interviews, writing, etc., that initial surge you mentioned has died down. But, definitely no guarantee. Orange line is a nice backup to have.

What time are you done? I think public transit usually is done by midnight. Check the schedules. And if you can do an express or not.

SEPTA Orange line typically runs until 1 a.m., which should be good enough for me after every session. I've not yet had time to look into whether or not they'll be running later with NCAAs running but once I do I'll report back.

How far is the Orange line from the Marriott, wife is a really slow walker.

According to Google maps...Marriott on Filbert St is about a quarter mile. It is about the same from Orange Line to Wells Fargo.
