I go every year almost. Driving from NYC to canastota,NY (upstate NY) is quite a drive. The hall of fame is really in the middle of no where, its about 25-30 mins from Syracuse,NY. And the hall of fame itself (where the robes,trunks,cast fist etc) are is VERYYY SMALL it looks like a small shack. But they do have a big a stage where they do the inductions and speeches. There is hotels right across the street and some bars and restaurants the most famous one being Grazianos where all the boxers will go to eat. If you're a big boxing fan i'd definitely say that its worth it, especially with this years class. Also there is a casino about 10-15 mins away called turning stone casino (ESPN FNF was just there a few weeks ago) so you could look into that as another option as well. Have fun!Comment
