Putting this here and not in the hockey section because it's solicit-y. If it's better over there, sorry 😭

Presuming the men's team makes Placid (knock on wood), I've been trying to figure out how to get up there for the past few weeks. Problem is, there's no bus that runs that far north. Which means I've got to hitch a ride. I've been working the phones with limited success on this front.

I've got some concepts of a plan around bussing out from Ithaca to Albany on Thursday, overnighting there, and then getting picked up by someone who's heading west to Placid (and likely staying with them if I can make it up? but this is still a little bit in the air, from my understanding). That being said, this would be a pain in the ass, especially overnighting in Albany, as there's no bus that will get me there early enough on Friday to make it work. As such, it would generally be a hell of a lot easier to get a ride from Ithaca - or even Syracuse, as I can get up there by 11:30 Friday. Hell, if you're driving through Binghamton I can swing that. If you're driving up on Thursday, I can make that work too. For the way back, if it's Saturday night or Sunday, either is fine. (Even getting down to Albany is fine because there ARE buses from Albany to Ithaca Sunday night.)

What I can offer:
- My share of gas/food money (hotel too, but as mentioned, I might have that down already)
- Questionable taste on aux
- Rambling stories about law school and hockey
- Ability to sleep on couches (or floors)
- Unprecedented levels of "I wasn't even born yet when that happened" 💜
- Complemented well by a nearly limitless ability to listen to stories of Cornell hockey from before I was born
- Or if you just want to drive in silence I'm very good at that too, promise

(For tickets, I should be able to get the Cornell zone corner ones, but it looks like there are still tickets available anyway.)

You can PM me here or fire me an email - my Cornell address should be linked on my profile, but if it isn't, it's here.

Thanks!!!
