[quote sah67]Also, in another entry, he mentions that the Knicks will be hosting the Bulls at MSG at 1PM on the day of the BU game, and goes on to suggest the possibility of less-than-optimal ice come game time...I hadn't thought about this.[/quote]Ick, he's right.  That's too bad.

[quote billhoward]I've heard a description of even worse: playing the day after the circus leaves town and the ice wasn't taken up. Some of the urine seeps through the plywood underlayment, infuses the ice, and it takes more than one or two Zamboni passes until the worst smell is once again the players' pads and pants.[/quote]

That actually happens all year round, regardless of whether the circus has been in town.  The urine is from the Ranger fans.

I'm sure the Islanders ice is pristine. Too bad no one actually goes to games to appreciate it.

[quote billhoward]Yale football (9/22), hockey? Whatever, whichever, both. Yes, we're on for Pepe's. [An outstandingly great pizza place in the Italian section of New Haven that Al introduced us to. Try the white pie with clams and bacon. Link: http://www.pepespizzeria.com/ (157 Wooster Street, New Haven, CT 203-865-5762)

Bill, we have weekend guests who were at the Pilot Pen tennis tournament held next to the Yale Bowl, and they report the exterior of the Bowl has been completely restored.  Let's hope they've replaced at least those seats on the visitor's side near the 50-yard line to eliminate the recent bi-annual epidemic of butt splinters.

Three weeks and counting.

For those of you who have circled the game at Lynah East on 11/16...
Currently the Harvard website shows single game tickets going on sale October 3rd at 10am (but the web sales page shows 10/03 at 12:00AM, keep an eye on it if you want to be sure to call the moment they are available (seems like the date on the website changed a few years ago too, so you might want to double check in a few weeks)

i wonder if they are even going to take web orders?  They decided not to last year, which was a PITA since it said online they were going to sell online...

Thanks for the headsup.  I remember 2 years ago they started selling online @ midnight...fortunately I checked elynah before going to bed that night
