This was the "Mark of the Quad Cities" (now TaxSlayer Arena where the MVC Women's Tournament is going on this year).  And yes, that traffic jam along I-80 was caused by our fans.  The post-game gatherings were well-attended... and the championship game celebration was "Standing room only."

Of course, Valpo was undefeated in those games...all of them...

I was involved with the Fort Wayne Sports Club that helped bring the tournament to Fort Wayne and also worked when the tournament was held here those three years.  I was never very impressed with the attendance when it was here.  I could only find attendance data for the last year (didn't try very hard), but the finals that year between IUPUI and Valpo should have been the best from a geography viewpoint and the attendance was only a pitiful 2,412.
