Traveling to St. Louis For the Championship?

Fans who have not yet made their reservations for the State Farm MVC Men's Basketball Championship (March 1-4) can take advantage of supplemental fan hotel blocks in Missouri and Illinois, and a special discount code for those booking a flight on American Airlines.

Here is the discount code for American Airlines for those traveling to the tournament:

When you book online there is a space for the code in the "Passenger Detail" section.  Reservations can also be booked over the phone by calling 800-433-1790 and referring to the discount code. 
 

MISSOURI HOTELS -- The St. Louis Convention and Visitors Commission has secured additional limited room blocks at various downtown (including some team hotels) and Clayton properties for the 2007 State Farm MVC Men's Basketball Tournament.  Please note the supplemental fan room block is not part of the original institutional room block at each team property, and room rates will vary according to availability.
 
Valley fans can call 1-800-916-8937 and ask for the "2007 State Farm Missouri Valley Conference - Supplemental Fan Block."  Please note that individuals must use the 1-800 number process to get access to these rooms and will not be able to dial the hotels directly and receive the negotiated rate. 


ILLINOIS HOTELS -- These properties are located in Fairview Heights and Collinsville, Illinois.  The Collinsville interstate exit on I-55/70 is 14 miles from Scottrade Center, while the Fairview Heights exit on the Interstate 64 corridor is roughly 13 miles from Scottrade.  Two MetroLink stops are near the Fairview Heights area along the I-64 route, with station locations in Swansea and Fairview Heights.  Also, the Ramada Inn in Fairview Heights can provide a shuttle to the MetroLink, if necessary.
