I was in my junior year at Colgate at the time and my gf and her friend from Mt. Holyoke were visiting that weekend because she knew how important the game was to me.

We drove up without tickets, found a place to park by a bar around 2 hours before tip off.

My mind is hazy, but I remember it being a small/narrow place, just a long wood bar and just a dozen or so two person tables along it.
It was an older crowd and they didn't let the place get too overcrowded.
Wish I could remember what bar it was but I was a Syracuse noob at the time.
I just remember it wasn't too far down the Hill/not too far off the beaten path.

They had the volume on.
I'm probably the outlier here, but one thing I actually miss when attending a live game is the commentary, as long as it's not say Jay Williams or Gus Johnson...

A couple offered us tickets up in the nosebleeds at some point, but we decided to stay at the bar.

Just an amazing game and experience watching there with some other diehard fans, even though we weren't in the Dome.

And you could see just how dominant we could be that year.
