Cornell - BU pregame (Stout, 5PM)

[A-19]

Not including the official alumni pep rally thing, are people planning on heading to one particular place around the MSG area before next Saturday's BU game?

I don't have concrete plans as I'm playing with an alumni Cornell side at the New York Sevens rugby tournament on Randall's Island during the day, but if my group gets organized after the tourny we may head to a bar called Stout on 33rd between 6th and 7th.  Very large bar, pretty good food, great beer selection (as one might infer from the name).  It's not a homey local dive, but it's a nice spot and could fit a large number of loud Faithful.

I was going to mention Stout too- it's a popular Rangers bar and very big.

Let's Go Potvin!

Agreed, Stout is good.

I was actually trying not to mention it so it wouldn't get too crowded.  ::cuss::

Potvin sucks!

[Mike Hedrick 01]

Amen.  Screw BU, Potvin, too!  

Anyone going to the Rangers-Stars game on Sunday afternoon?  I'm pretty excited for an all-hockey weekend.

I'll be there in sec 133.

[Mike Hedrick 01]

Nice seats.  I'm in the 300s for the Ranger game.  Rinkside for the CU game.  

I've never seen the Rangers play at home, so this should be a great weekend.

Did you read the article?

Arena – Lynah is great, but it sometimes feels like it is going to fall down. Agganis Arena, on the other hand, was built in 2005 and is state-of-the-art. Apparently, even though it is new, it has not lost any of the charm of B.U.'s old rink. Advantage: B.U.

In fact, the only charm Agganis has is that it somehow managed to dodge the prohibition on alcohol at NCAA events.  Why they were allowed to transfer the grandfathered alcohol license from Walter Brown to a new arena is beyond my understanding, unless of course there was some money involved.

what is this alcohol prohibition? alot of schools sell beer at games. the only rule i know is that if its an NCAA run event you cant sell beer.

su sells beer except for NIT/NCAA events.

Ah, then I've misunderstood all this time.  I withdraw my complaint. ::whistle::

We should be jealous, not upset.
