The NCAA has announced tourney sites for 2011-2013. Georgetown will be hosting first and second round games at the Verizon Center in 2011. The last time Georgetown hosted the tournament was in 2008, when Duke barely beat Belmont in a 2 vs. 15 match-up, and then lost to West Virginia two days later. This will be the fourth time Georgetown has hosted the games. Full schedules for 2011-2013 after the jump:

For some reason I have a sneaking suspicion Georgetown will be playing a much lower ranked Cinderella team in Charlotte in 2011. I also envision some sort of commercial being played during the tournament with JT3 and the tag-line "There are no Cinderellas." Just thinking outloud.
Good talk.
