Quote from: TrotskyHappy Anniversary.  You should inform the team so they give you a present of some sort...
I've already been dragged into the shower by the team in the Dick Bertrand era, so not much else could go wrong. At least back then you didn't have a $500 maybe-water-resistant smartphone in your pocket with an explosive lithium-ion battery.

A part of me still believes women-in-national semifinals merits a true fan's attendance more than men in the Eastern semifinals. But Hampden has probably been booked solid for months. Mystique of the NCAA and all.

Agree with you about the relative merits, though I'm sure more fans might consider the women's game if the men weren't so close to the bubble. But just FYI, Booking.com still shows rooms available in Hampden at Whitney Inn & Suites, and lots of places are available in nearby New Haven, where many fans might prefer to stay anyway (pizza is better).

Today, choices must be made.

A true fan could, depending on the teams' fortunes of course, string together a three-day menu: Hamden on Friday, Lake Placid (hopefully) on Saturday, and Hamden (hopefully) on Sunday.

Or, if everything's a bust, the schedule reduces to a quick trip to Hamden and back. ::doh::

Was joke: the idea Hamden-New Haven is booked solid on a winter weekend day. And no overflow room in Bridgeport

Marty and Janice have arrived.  Assuming the athletic office tickets are on time we will be in Section 24 - I assume.

Does anyone know how to pick seats?  I couldn't go today due to work/ kids in school but plan to take my daughters tomorrow.  

I went to the Whiteface/ Lake Placid site and can find tickets, but it assigns Sect 3 with no way to choose.

I know we can probably sit where we want, but I would prefer to have accurate tickets just in case.

Look at the site again.  It is harder to choose than it should be but if you click around you can probably figure it out.

That said I couldn't figure it out beyond that because it offered me section 21. I bought in 24 through the Cornell ticket office.

Yet Jim Hyla said there were section 24 seats that he could see after I had given up.

I forget exactly what I needed to do and I don't have a computer around to try again.

I know that you do need to enable flash for the site and then I think there should be a button that appears to select seats. I think it's above the select price button. You may have to click the seat map.

Assuming it's Flash, try the Internet Explorer.

FWIW, there were plenty of seats open in 23 and a few in 24 for the game today.
