Of the cities I listed OKC is both Myriad/Cox and Chesapeake. Dallas is both AAC and Reunion Arena and KC is both Kemper and Sprint.
 
In the old Field House, at the Myriad, in Stillwater, at Madison Square Garden, at Barclay Center in Brooklyn and in Springfield, Massachusetts.
 
Since I live out of state, most of the games I attend are away from LNC. I've gone to most of the away campuses in the Big 8 and Big 12. Also, some of the post season venues.

Some of the ones you guys haven't mentioned include Houston (Toyota Center and Rice's cracker box). I used to go to the pre-season Big 8 tournament every year in KC (Municipal Auditorium in downtown KC before Kemper) ...... 3 games in 3 days over the holidays. Also, went to Field House back in the day of coaches like Bob "Go Go" Stevens and John McLeod. Watched Alvan Adams first game at the Field House where he got the 28 rebounds.

I personally hated that A&M went to the SEC because I loved going to football and basketball games in College Station because they were just 90 minutes away.
 
At aTm, back in the 90's when I lived in Houston. Rollie White Coliseum aka cracker box.

And Boulder! Very impotent arena!

Richmond-VCU game. Great environment, they packed it in. My friend who went there was shocked at how bad Willie Warren played because he said all through warmups he went like 95% from 3 and went to Curry range.
 
I went to an OU-ORU game at Mabee Center in '77 when I was a freshman (and when ORU had the best program in Oklahoma, although OU took that distinction within two years). I didn't see it live, but my brother went to an NCAA sub-regional game at Mabee Center in 1985.

As I recall, several Tulsa fans showed up to root against OU, and to also rub it in that they'd beaten OU in January. I heard a couple of them brought in a banner that read, "Hey OU Fans, Remember Jan. 16?" (or whatever day it happened. Those losers got a bit too close to some OU fans who weren't going to let that go without getting pelted with a few things.

OU won the first-round game against a scrappy team from North Carolina A&T (which included one of Jim Brown's sons). The next day in Albuquerque, Tulsa's season ended in a decisive loss to UTEP in that sub-regional. So the way I heard it, some OU fan who'd listened to the TU fans' crap that Thursday night came back with a sign that said, "Hey Tulsa fans, Remember Yesterday?"
