Basketball has a way of bringing people together and nothing does it quite like the Mid-American Conference Tournament held each year in Cleveland.
A group of men walking through the concourse at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse between games Thursday embodied that well. One wearing a MAC t-shirt, another sporting an Ohio University top, all in town to catch the MACtion.
While the group of friends on a get-together shared Ohio roots, other fans like Chris Hill came here from a bit further out. “I’m watching everything. I’ll leave Sunday but I’ll watch the men and women’s. My team has already lost but I’m sticking around,” Hill said. “It means a lot of dollars. Hosting these events, the MAC Tournament, every year makes it more special, Brings in several million dollars into the community in outside spending,” said Greater Cleveland Sports Commission CEO David Gilbert. “You really see it and feel it on the street. You walk into restaurants around the building, you walk into hotel lobbies and they're full, there’s excitement.
