Looking for a mini-vacation from the Chicago winter? Head out to Allstate Arena on Friday night to take in some professional beach volleyball. The AVP Crocs Hot Winter Nights will be bringing some of their top-ranked professionals along with truckloads of sand for a night of volleyball action.
The event combines the sport with a beach festival. April Ross, who competed in both the Minneapolis and Columbus stops of the AVP tour, commented, "The atmosphere was fun and electric -- you could tell the crowd was having a blast and really enjoying the volleyball."
Tickets for the event range from $18 - $65 and can be purchased through AVP.com.

It woudl be awesome if they did something like this at, say, McCormick and turned the event floor into a beach, with metal bleachers, etc. I'd definitely go to that. Unless that's what they've done in Rosemont, I won't drive out there just to watch volleyball in an arena.
