Dyl's Roads & Travels: Mackey Arena

Home of Purdue Basketball. I've attended too many games here to put them all on this page, so I'll just put some notable ones here.

Men's Basketball, 3/5/2023 - vs. Illinois

Despite getting swept by archrival Indiana (this is a deliberate misspelling) this season, Purdue managed to get their 25th Big Ten regular season title and seal it outright with a win over Illinois.

Men's Basketball, 1/31/2024 - vs. Northwestern

My first time watching Purdue basketball go into overtime. A thrilling game. And also my first time seeing a head coach get ejected. Thankfully not Purdue's coach!

Men's Basketball, 2/10/2024 - vs. Indiana

Purdue gets revenge on IU by competing the sweep. First with a dominating double-digit win in Bloomington (the worst loss IU took in Assembly Hall to Purdue - 21 points), then with this equally dominant victory.
