Give your seats when you sound off.  Section 112, but only for a Cornell final (knock on wood).

No tickets, yet! I'm working a lot of angles.

Section 307, row 5, seat 15.  This sounds like I'll be banging my head on the roof, so I'll probably be wandering around in search of a seat closer to the action.

Me, with an undetermined number of friends (which means I may have extras, we'll see).

Waiting for tickets, but unless I get totally screwed, should be in the first couple rows of 324, 325... unless I get very lucky and win the CU lottery :-).

I arranged a Cornell pre-game party at Pearl Street Brewery close to HSBC arena.  I need your participation to make this a success.

Please check the "Pre Game Party" thread posted by Don Lazzaro ... email me at cakramer2@yahoo.com if you'll be there!

I'm there!  Not sure of my exact seats (my friend had 6 tickets at one point, not sure which one I'm actually sitting in) but I think they're either 110 or 113.  Will edit later when I find out for sure.  

Is there interest in having an ELF gathering sometime?  I'd love to meet some of you to put faces with names. :-)

111, row 22, 1, 2, 3 or 4, although I'm thinking that if we shoot the other way, I might try to trade just before the game with a UNH fan for equal and opposite seats.

Title: Re: Buffalo Roll Call

Yes.  I haven't really been able to mingle much at the games I have gone to this year.

Title: Re: Buffalo Roll Call
Post by: Steve R 02 on April 02, 2003, 02:53:38 PM
Section 300, Row 4, Seats 13 and 14!!!!!  (as long as they actually arrive in the mail!)

Research has been keeping me from migrating north to catch a game in person this year, but there's no way I could let this one slip by!

How I'm going to function normally until the 10th, I don't know...

actually at present i am questionable as my supervisor just informed me that my vacation request might not be approved due to a previously unscheduled customer visit. will find out by the end of the day. please everyone reading this send happy thoughts my way as i can't imagine not being there. if it turns out to be a no i might pull out the crying card ... perhaps the one advantage in working with a lab full of guys. if it a no my boss is up for a fight cause i've already made plans, boutght tix, etc and last minute scheduling shouldn't affect previously requested vacation time.  i normally just go with the flow, never causing problems but this would be my one exception. i've been waiting 5 or 6 yrs for this ... yeah not as long as a bunch of you others but long enough. this freakin sucks. sucks. sucks.

I'd delay graduation from med school if they told me I couldn't go.  

Fortunately, that's not the case.  Sec 112, row 30, seat 20 (+ 2 Cornell friends right next to me).

Hey, one more question...what are people doing for last minute lodging?  Obviously all the downtown hotels are booked.  Is there some suburban place where a lot of folks are finding rooms?  Are people staying by the airport?  I really don't know the area so I'm not sure where to book a room.  

Also, what's the public transportation like?  Seeing as I've already dropped a fair amount of cash on airfare, I'm hoping to avoid renting a car.

Lastly (I promise, last thing!) are there any kind folks who could drive me and my friend to Syracuse on Sunday for our return flight?  If we do end up renting a car, I really don't want to pay the change of location fee.   I would be happy to supply some nice CA wine as payment..... :-)

There is a metro rail line (essentially a trolley or light railthat runs from the SUNY Buffalo South Campus to the HSBC Arena through downtown, and the city usually schedules trains to handle the large crowds for events at the arena.  There are also bus lines that run out to the suburbs.

As for hotels, Amherst is a nice suburb near the colleges, and they have hotels there.  Cheektowaga is near the airport, and also should have hotels.

Try this page for accomodation and transportation info, including public transportation maps: http://www.visitbuffaloniagara.com/accommodations_ncaa.html

Buffalo Tourism has also set up this site for the Frozen Four, complete with cheezy flash intro: http://www.centericecrewbuffalo.com/
It sure is great to see our logos.  Huggy bear or not.

Check out http://www.nfta.com/metro/ for public transportation.

nevermind. All is good. Turned out to be a retaliation prank for the awesome one that I pulled on my supervisor yesterday. I am very impressed cause I fell and fell hard for it. It'd be still going on had I not been so visably upset and teary eyed! :`( :-D

[/Q]   I got a room at the Comfort Inn in Fort Erie, ONT today.  $65 in play money.  Er, Canadian dollars.  http://www3.choicehotels.com/ires/en-US/html/ChoiceHome?sid=xua2M.216P05Ypc.1

The hotel is right across the border.  10 minutes from the arena, plus the time it takes for the cavity search.  ::yark::

I also reserved a car at Enterprise, and the weekend rates were reasonable. ~$35 - $45, depending on the size car you want.

Beth and Chris reporting in from Maine. We're in section 301 row 10, seats 11-12.
Melissa I wasn't sure I could get the time off either, so my brother ( a doctor)  offered : "I will just send a quick e-mail to Roger (principal of school where I teach) and tell him you are sick with a new cold virus from Hong Kong. The virus is so cold it is frozen and never affects one person at a time but always four or more; we call it "the frozen four."

Info on USCHO indicates: 119/120 Minn; 114/115 Mich; 106/107 UNH; 102/103 CU...they are trying to get a ticket swap going so people can trade equivalent tickets but end up in their school's section....doesn't seem to have taken off as a concept. (maybe because it's been so hard getting the darn things in the first place....) Does anyone know if Lenny will be in goal near the CU section 2 periods, or the reverse?..btw, sec110 row25

Wouldn't it make sense to bring as many tubas in visibly under the 25 minimum, and sneak in a piccolo, flute, or clarinet?

Or am I missing something?
