Get your favorite college jersey ready, make your picks and fill out your brackets. The frenzy of March Madness is kicking off this week! After your teams are selected, choosing where to watch the games is next on the list. But don't worry; we've got just the place for you! You won't miss a single tip-off when you visit our March Madness headquarters.

Starting this Thursday, Ravello Lounge will open early for you to catch all of the college basketball madness. We'll have the action on over 40 big screen TVs, comfortable cozy seating and did we mention, there's no cover? While you're lounging around enjoying the games, we'll be serving up game day food and drink specials. Enjoy Bud Light for $2.50, hot dogs for $1.50 and breakfast pastries from $2.95, just to name a few.

RavelloInteriorWith 16 games per day on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, you've got a lot of viewing to do. Doors will open at 8 AM so be sure to get there early to get a seat. We're even making your betting needs more convenient. Cantor Gaming will have a satellite betting station in the bar area of Ravello and will be utilizing their mobile betting technology, so you won't miss any of the action or even need to leave your chair.

The action is intense - fast breaks, big points and unexpected runs. What did you take? The over? Maybe a first-half money line? Nope, you took the next free-throw would be made. What? That's madness!

MarchMadnessblogIt sure is - March Madness. If you haven't tried In-Running Wagering technology from Cantor Gaming here at M, the tournament is the perfect time. The folks over at Cantor asked themselves "Why should the betting action stop when the game starts?" The simple answer was that it shouldn't. From one of the betting stations in the book or from a mobile tablet you can use in areas beyond the book here at the property, the betting action at M matches the action on the court.

If sports betting isn't your thing though, have no fear. The property is filled with great venues which are in turn filled with lots of TVs for all your basketball viewing pleasure. On select dates between March 17 - April 4, you'll also be able to join in some viewing parties in Ravello Lounge hosted by Mike O'Brian from KKLZ 96.3. With drink deals, contests, prize giveaways and of course the lovely Bud Girls, it's going to be party after party. Check out the graphic for specific dates and time and join us here at M - bring on the Madness!
