I don't think it will really hit home until the first BET that we're not a part of. There is so much ritual involved that the ACC will never emulate it. But the ritual of the BET...securing tickets. Deciding which t-shirt to wear. Figuring out a way to sneak out of work for an afternoon game or at least to sneak off to a bar. Talking  with other team's fans at Stout. LGO chants at Blarney. Last year's UConn game everyone around me from other schools was cheering for UConn over us. In 6OT everyone around us was cheering for us. Pitt and WVU fans getting along to cheer on a common enemy over another common enemy. Bilas, Raf and McDonough calling the prime time games. The one time the City cares about college basketball, if there's an exciting tournament there is more buzz than the NCAA (at least among the people I'm around). The rest of the college basketball world wishes it could have what the Big East has with its championship. 
 
So yeah, I'm ready and excited for the ACC and am just grateful for the memories and we have a memorable tournament this year.
