Title: Cornell on CSI
Post by: RichH on May 04, 2008, 05:59:15 PM
While looking at ivysport's site, they promote some of their CU gear appearing on CSI.  I thought it would be something like the HIMYM mysterious and unexplained appearance of a shirt, but no...it's Big Red in your face as they have a Cornell chess club match vs. Las Vegas Correctional Facility for some reason.

The scene starts at 9:13 of the following video (there are some ads to get through):

Neat.

This might explain why the Cornell chess club is featured so prominently.

It helps to have alums in high places.

Not as major a mention, but on one episode of Law and Order: SVU (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0807685/), one of the suspects was said to be going to Cornell.  I think he was also supposed to have a full scholarship, but hey, it was a mention...
