Greg Edwards wants us seeing blue.
Edwards, president and CEO of the Greater Des Moines Convention and Visitors Bureau, is among the city leaders prepping for the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.
And they’ve chosen an official color for the event.
“Our theme is going to be to light the metro in blue,” Edwards said. “So, we’re asking the buildings in downtown, like 801 (Grand), the financial tower and all that to light up in blue.”
Blue is the predominant color on NCAA logos, which will be splashed in and out of Wells Fargo Arena when first- and second-round games tip off March 17.
