You're going to have a fantastic time. Boise is a beautiful city with a lot of cool things to do. I recommend visiting Big Al's, it's a really cool sports restaurant with a bowling alley, arcade and of course... tons of TVs to watch basketball.
Taco Bell Arena is a neat place to watch a game, too.
Yes, Boise is kind of (really) far from Kentucky, but for those still making the trip - you won't regret it!
