LOS ANGELES--- PrimeSport, the Official Ticket & Hospitality Package Provider for the 2009 NCAA Men’s College World Series (MCWS), is teaming with the NCAA to offer The NCAA Experience™ at the MCWS in Omaha, Nebraska. The pregame party, held at Goldberg’s II from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. before each MCWS Finals game, is the first ever hosted by the NCAA and PrimeSport at the MCWS.

“The Men’s College World Series has been an exciting championship for many years, and we’re proud to work with the NCAA to make it even better,” said Sharyn Outtrim, vice president of PrimeSport. “The NCAA Experience is a great step toward enhancing the fan experience at the Men’s College World Series even further.”

Goldberg’s II (4030 S. 13th St.) is located just two blocks south of Rosenblatt Stadium and the event will offer a variety of amenities. MCWS fans who purchase The NCAA Experience tickets gain access to a limited open bar featuring a variety of beverages, as well as an unlimited menu including hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, hot dogs and chips.

“Being so close to the stadium is great for fans because it allows them to simply enjoy themselves in a fun and official setting before they head to the game,” said Outtrim. “And, they have an opportunity to enjoy great food and drink offerings in that setting.”

The NCAA is excited to offer fans a high-quality pregame hospitality experience before the CWS Finals games” said Dennie Poppe, NCAA vice president for baseball and football.
