The last 3 years, UNT has made it to the Championship game, which no other school in the Sun Belt can claim, and we've watched a lot of exciting games to get there. Unfortunately, the team lost in the Championship game this year, but other than that last 10 minutes of basketball, it was a great trip.
We've done most of the touristy stops in Hot Springs over the last four years, but we could still enjoy ourselves. On day, the guys went to the horse races (something that never quite worked out in our previous trips). One of the other wives and I took a stroll down Bath-House row (that was a repeat activity) and had a mini-spa-day. I think the guys like that Kim and I are both there so we can go do "girly" stuff and let them obsess about sports (and the UNT message board).
Here's a few pictures from the trip:

This might have been the last year for the tournament to be in Hot Springs, and at most, I think there's only going to be one more year. After 4 trips, we still enjoy the city and always love the "HOT HOOPS in HOT SPRIIIINNNGGS"
