Hey everyone,
I won't be able to make it to Dartmouth on Friday, but I'm really psyched for Hahvahd on Saturday. Looking forward to seeing everyone at John Harvard's and at the game!
LGR! B-]
Lynah East +3
I'll be at both +1 at Thompson +5 at Lynah East.
Lynah East with dbilmes, amerks127 +2 others
Lynah East with my gf and my parents. Dartmouth not too likely, but considering it (can't they move Dmouth to like... Nashua?)
Count me in.
Killer and Little Killer, +2 for Dartmouth, +5 for Harvard
I just noticed (on USCHO and confirmed by the Dartmouth Athletic site) that the game at Thompson has been moved back next Friday to 7:30pm.
Try to get to Dartmouth if you can. In the standings and the PWR, that is the game of far greater importance.

If only PA wasn't such a large state, or I didn't have to TA a lab Friday morning... I just might have been able to make it!
But I'll at least be at the Harvard game on Saturday with several others.
+3
lynah east +11 (well, +10 if you dont include my gf, who goes to hahvard)
+ 2 ::drive:: at DC ::banana:: and ::drive:: Sucks ::banana::

Lynah East + 1
L'East +3, hopefully a couple more.
I'll be there, if Ari remembers me!
Lynah East + 9
My wife and I are flying in from CA for the Sucks game.

We are bringing Toni, Rich, and Leslie.
Lynah East +5 !!!

Me either, but from Florida. Ironic, considering I'm flying eight times this week (just never further than western Lousiana or the Atlantic coast of Florida).
I'm jealous of everyone going - cheer loudly for me and have fun!
I'll be at Sucks +3 (my first trip!)
Unfortunately, can't make DMouth.
I'm in for the East, not the Green.
Loud guy; you, me, John Harvard's, and as many pitchers as we can stand.

At Dartmouth +1. AFter 10 years of living in Vermont, it's about time I went to this game.

I'll be @Dartmouth only, with 3 others including the 6-week-old. Her first Cornell game. Awwww. Wish I could make it to Lynah East but we can make it to NH and back in one night but Cambridge would be an overnight. Not ready for that with the little one. Yet. :-)

Harvard but not Dartmouth for me as well. Hanover is far.
Hey DevilDerby, count me in for some pitchers.
Wife and I for the trip to Cambridge. Unfortunately, we bought tickets last fall for BU-Vermont on Friday night -- who knew the Dartmouth game would be so important?
If anyone's hanging around Boston on Friday night and looking for something else to do, RIT is at Bentley...I'm sure they'd enjoy some support as they go for their first Atlantic Hockey regular season title.

I haven't been to any games at Bright this year, so I don't know. But maybe Angry Hippie and Button-down Asshole will make guest appearances.

I don't. My flights this week are mostly around 2000' pretending to drop bombs on targets like "5 grain silos" or "Road/Divided Highway intersection." Often stressful, but mostly fun, and I get paid for it! Too bad the Navy doesn't let me just take random days off in the middle of training...

"infamous game of 3-man 3-man"
jesus effing christ that was rough
We're in 14, but 9 IS a good spot. Particularly if you want to haggle the Sucks band. But you typically have to sit.
So where does the Cornell standing student section "sit?" I think I'm sitting behind the goal that Cornell shoots at twice. Sitting there two years ago though I remember everyone staying seated the whole game, including a fur coated Hahvard alumn who yelled at me for standing up when Cornell scored....hoping that won't happen this year!
me +3 for Lynah East. Can't wait!
Screw BU
Last year the Cornell band and ticket allottment was around Section 14. Can't see why it wouldn't be the same this year. That being said, basically that entire side of the rink was filled with red-clad enthusiasts.
Late roll call: headed for the airport in a few hours. LGR

You hope Cornell doesn't score?
hey, even I'm allowed a pedantic moment, especially if I'm amused by it. ::panic::
Would 14 be a standing section? As in, we could squeeze in and stand there so as to avoid sitting with the Sucks superfans?
[quote ebilmes]Would 14 be a standing section? As in, we could squeeze in and stand there so as to avoid sitting with the Sucks superfans?[/quote]
Well, to warn you, no section there is really a "standing section" as you say. The ushers will tell you to sit, because it's their job. Respect your hosts, and don't be dicks about it. If you want to stand, nearly every section has a railing in the back with a concrete slab that you can usually stand on. Hopefully, the team will give us lots of opportunities to stand up.
That said, 14-20 is usually all Cornell, with the CU band is usually in 15 (in the past, 16). In 14, you'll have a good shot at exchanging taunts with Evan Finchester Snood IV, and the rest of the Harvard student section, like that weird painted concave-chested fellow with the hockey helmet, and the 5 'roid-raged football players looking to start fisticuffs.
I think you just mentioned their entire fan base in that last sentence.
Lynah East + more. Also in section 9.

Did you just use the word "fisticuffs"?
Do you suppose they want to boil our potatoes?

Instead of fisticuffs, wouldn't they rather race their daddy's yacht against my daddy's yacht at the cape this summer? Liz, could you clairify the appropriate prep way to settle a dispute?
*hides from Liz's attacking fisticuffs*
Oh, and HARVARD SUCKS.
my tickets say "Standing" section... does this mean i can go stand behind whatever section I want to?
anybody know where I'll actually be?

Well, the roid-raged football players may not really be preppy. If veering towards fisticuffs with Mr. Snood, though, I'd go with having a drink together, realizing you have mutual friends (e.g. your cousin went to school with his business partner), and deciding that what's said at a sporting event is less important than the networking you've just done.
The other option is to settle it on a field of competition. Rugby (if you really want to hit someone) might do admirably; any racket sport would also work.
[/prep]

I wish that were possible with more people. No lie, a short Harvard football player threatened fisticuffs with me at the Hong Kong Saturday night, as I was shuffling through the crowd towards the bathrooms. (His jacket and his friends identified him as a football player, btw). I present this paraphrased playlet:
H (seeing my CU hockey sweatshirt and hat): Yeah, 3-1 ass-kicking! 3-1!
Me (thinking a good-natured exchange was possible): Yep. But hey, have fun playing next week while we're getting some nice rest!
H: Yeah, why don't I just drop you right here and right now??
Me (lamenting the death of good-naturedness): *sigh* Yeah, with that cop 5 feet away, that would be a really smart thing for you to do. Am I really worth the fun you'll get out of that? (moves along as he and his friends kept talking tough)
Also, while leaving the bar, a Harvard hockey player was coming in (at 1:30 am) with his entourage. All I wanted to do was show a little sportsmanship and tell him that they played a good game. I tried several times to say "Good game," but I had 4-5 entourage members screaming shit at me. Thanks to Age for grabbing me by the collar to yank me out the door. I guess today when you wear the "other team's" clothing, you're just assumed to be a punk-ass prick.
