Lynah East Roll Call

I think the surprise comes when she hears a Boston-area phone #.

Nah, lots of Cornell alumni in Boston.  It'd have to be a Boston-area code with a Harvard campus exchange for it to be REALLY surprising.  :-D

So I guess my buddies and I surprised the hell out of them.  Of course, we all tried for Cornell section tickets.

As a side note, I have a feeling they are desparate to dump the (probably hundreds) of extra tickets, as they realize, once again, that they have no fans.  Remember, this game will be televised, so we really should show the rest of the college hockey world what home ice advantage is all about.

Actually, I think we should show the rest of the college hockey world (that doesn't already know) what a traveling Lynah Faithful is all about. ;-)

I'll be there (SRO tickets)

Let's Go Red!!!

I did not toss the tickets in the trash and down the garbage chute this year. They are sitting in front of me and I just looked at them last night.

Let's just say that in spite of being a Cornellian, Judy still rides the short bus....

Being that the Boston and Ithaca area codes differ by a single middle digit - we need an upright one as our middle digit because that's the way Boston area driver's drive  ::screwy:: with an upright middle digit - I wonder if Harvard even notices.  Moving from Ithaca to Boston, I often gave out my phone number with the 607 area code.  Making it worse was that I actually lived in apartment 607 for several years when I moved here - somebody once asked me if I chose that number specifically because of Cornell - uh, love the school but um, no.

It's still an amazing coincidence.  A friend of mine dropped out of Cornell last year and moved to Miami.  He now lives on Cayuga Street there.  ::nut::

Well, when I was young I lived 5 blocks from Cornell medical school and my mom taught elementary school across from Sloan Kettering which is just up the street from Cornell med. so I walked by the place a lot.  Then I moved to LI and my elementary school was at the corner of Marion and Cornell streets.  Maybe I have an overactive subconscious.  I don't live in apt. 607 anymore but I did move to Brookline which sounds a lot like Brooklyn which if you reverse the syllables as Italian immigrants did in the early 1900's, you get Lynbrook which is where on LI I grew up.  My subconscious is now telling me to stop with the coincidences and to remind everyone who's not going to John Harvard's to come to the Cornell Club's reception before the game.  Damn, there I go with that Cornell connection again.  ::uhoh::

best quote of the article:

[Q]"Any game like this where you know the fans are going to get involved, you have to stay level-headed and not get too pumped up," said junior defenseman Noah Welch. "It's easier said than done for us, because we're used to home games where the crowd doesn't show up until after the first. They're here early and have their band going.[/Q]

Now that's HARSH!  Probably not the way to convince more Harvard fans to show up, there, Noah...   ::uhoh::
