'Get Your Game On' at Encore for March Madness

With the announcement of the 2009 NCAA Tournament Brackets, March Madness has arrived. And there is seemingly no better place to celebrate your devotion to a college basketball team in a place where the alcohol is flowing, the flat-screens are plentiful and the betting is totally legal. Yup, we're talking about Las Vegas.

At the newly-opened Encore Las Vegas, NCAA-themed room packages are available starting on March 19 all the way through April 6. Guest rooms start at $199 and include guaranteed seating at the hotel's sportsbook during the games as well as free food and beverages. If you book your stay for next Saturday then you will also get tickets to the "Survive & Advance" show's live taping hosted by former Indiana coach Bob Knight and Billy Packer. The show will also be taping March 22, 29 and April 3 and 5. Remember, the championship game will be held on April 4.

For March 26-29, the dates of the Regional Finals, we found a resort suite at Encore for $209 a night. Use code SAAPUB to book. The package is also available at Encore's sister property, The Wynn. All rates and dates are subject to availability.
