Yes, Bill, but only if you eat my share as well.  I'm back on a pretty strict low-glycemis diet, and Pepe's is pretty much the worst imaginable place for me to go anywhere near.

You could stop at Mystic Pizza on your way to Brown.;-)  And here on the Cape on your way to Harvard.

Title: Looking for a ride to Yale from Boston area
Post by: Killer on November 06, 2007, 09:31:58 AM
I work in downtown Boston, next to South Station, and am looking for a way to get to the Yale game Friday night.  Amtrak is a possibility (and with no traffic issues), but a bit pricey.  Only need 1-way, since my wife is meeting me in New Haven after the game.  Happy to share expenses.

PM me if you might be able to help out.  Thanks.

I know you're more looking for a carpool by this message, but I count 12 Friday busses from Boston to New Haven on Peter Pan Bus Lines, which is $30 one-way (as opposed to $60-130 on Amtrak).

Yeah, I was thinking more along the lines of carpool.  But you're right, the bus isn't a bad option, and it's right next door.  It also takes an extra hour, so from a purely economic standpoint, it's probably a wash if I work the extra hour (I'm a contract employee) and pay for Amtrak, or blow out earlier and save money on the ticket.

Hmmm...sit at my desk for an hour, or sit on the bus...???  Now, if I could just get Fung Wah Bus to drop me in New Haven...

They'd probably open the door as you're zooming by on I95.::blush::

Or you might get lucky, and it might catch fire in New Haven and you'll be able to get off.

I could gamble that they'd break down somewhere nearby

Not unlikely.

Post by: Killer on November 08, 2007, 08:46:37 AM
Sorry to say that my wife seems to be coming down with a bit of a cold, so she's not going to visit her New haven buddies while I take in the game.  So, I'm now in the market for a round-trip, if anyone is so inclined.

Planning to be there, one way or another, but company on the trip would be welcome.

Title: OFFERING a ride to Yale from Boston area
Post by: Killer on November 09, 2007, 08:58:06 AM
OK, plans have changed once more.  Now I'm driving down and back, so if there's anyone out there who, at this late hour, needs a ride from the Boston area, maybe I can help.  I'm leaving work early and will be departing from Natick between 3:30 and 4:00.  If you can get yourself somewhere close to Natick, we can hook up.

Call or e-mail me at work before 2:00 PM: 617-392-8696, robert.killian@fmr.com

LGR!!

P.S.  Thanks to Chris, who almost became a part of my solution.

I should be making it to the Brown game with some friends, but I also figured that I would let people know about another Providence event.

It may not be so conducive to watching/remembering  the hockey game, but is a pretty good time if you don't mind spending the $35. It's maybe a mile away with an uphill walk to get to the rink.
