Government workers certainly feel entitled.

 

I am sure the KOB takes a lot to put together and it can't be done if they give everything away.

Who is complaining about paying???? Not me..... I would gladly pay the 10, 15, or even 20 dollars for an online stream of the event.... It's just not worth the $60 or more in gas to get there in back, plus $100 a day for a hotel room, plus $10 a day for tickets.... There are PLENTY of PREMIER AAU events that have just as good if not better talent that are less expensive to attend... AND many of those Stream their games... Furthermore, There are vast amount of inexpensive resources for streaming i.e. YouTube, IHIGH, The Cube, Periscope, Crossover, etc....

I don't know guys. The state football finals were streamed with a small charge ($15 for all six games) and people didn't seem too happy about it and expected it for free.

 

In this case I doubt the KOB could even cover their costs if they streamed the games.

 

And any of us in the business know the guy that runs the King of the Bluegrass is pretty hardcore and wants everything to flow in his direction.

 

I streamed every game that I was not able to attend, and it was High Definition quality. The people complaining might want to check their Internet Service.

I actually think KoB would make more money if they charged for a stream. Lots of people would pay $20 for the weekend of events versus paying three or four times that to drive and attend the games.

EXACTLY!!!!! It's 2015 people! Not streaming a Large event like this is Antiquated, and is probably part of the reason it is declining in popularity.

People were complaining about having to pay because it was free in 2014. I haven't heard any complaints about the quality from those that bought it.

I keep seeing on Twitter where two of the out of state teams - Gainesville (GA) and Miami Senior (FL) - in the loser's bracket got into a brawl and the game had to be suspended. Also heard that police escorted people out. Anyone else know more details?

Also hearing both teams sent home for the remainder of the tournament. Bracket will apparently be adjusted. Seems wild.

Bracket revised.
