[quote BMac]On a related note, the new glass also stopped our ability to storm the ice by jumping over the boards.

This means that the last time that students jumped the boards at Lynah was our 2004-2005 clincher against Clarkson, when Topher scored, looked at the crowd, and jumped about 5 feet.[/quote]

It was well before that. They replaced the glass with seamless glass in the summer of 2000, and after that they said no more climbing the glass, making my freshman year ('99-2000) the last time people climbed over the glass after a playoff series.

I'm 100% sure it never happened from then through '03-'04 when I left he hill with my MEng. I guess it could've happened again a year later after the Clarkson game winner, but it would have been the first time in a long time (and quite unsafe due to the seamless glass).

Good to know, but people definitely jumped the glass after that Clarkson win- I was in Section B at the time. It wasn't everyone (they opened the zamboni doors for most people) but a ton of people did jump.
