LEUZZI: So why is Marquette Madness cancelled really?
Marquette Madness will not take place in 2022. (Marquette Wire Stock Photo)I forgot about the excitement around Marquette Madness. In fact, I had to think back to my first year at Marquette in 2019.
For almost two hours before the event kicked off, 12th Street from Wisconsin to Wells was closed down for a “street fair” that consisted of food vendors and activities, including a 50-foot Ferris wheel.
Students lined up around the corner to then pack into the Al McGuire Center to kick off the men’s and women’s basketball seasons.
