In Game
The Blue Demons hope their move to the brand new Wintrust Arena will help breathe new life into the basketball program. DePaul was once home to one of the top programs in the nation but has fallen onto rough times of late. The Blue Demons’ previous facility in Rosemont made it difficult for students to attend and the athletic department hopes the basketball program’s new home will bring out more students and fans.
The new arena is also located on the Near South Side, putting you right near plenty of Chicago attractions including the Museum Park, which is home to the Field Museum and Shedd Aquarium.
The new arena is gorgeous, and with affordable ticket prices, there is no reason for college basketball fans in the Chicagoland area not to check it out.
