Indianapolis is combining its passion for
basketball with its famous Hoosier Hospitality to play host to
the Men's 2002 World Basketball Championship.
Teams from 16 countries will compete in 62 games
from Aug. 29 through Sept. 8, all with an eye toward that
ultimate hoop dream -- a world title.
Games will be contested at the RCA Dome and
Conseco Fieldhouse, each conveniently located in the heart of
Downtown Indianapolis -- and a short walk from most Downtown
attractions. With 50,000 to 75,000 basketball fans expected to
flock to Indy from around the world, the party will definitely
take on an international flavor.
Let the games begin. |
