That is a GREAT picture. You basically got our entire group, the girls to left guys to the right. Thanks :-)

I am hugely in favor of continuing this tradition.  If your female friends want to continue this practice at the postseason games, that'd be great.  In fact, they can rope in some other girls to spell out longer phrases.  Like, maybe..."Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute sucks!" :-D

A friend and I were part of a co-ed "Go Red" back in the day (ok, the '99-00 season), both at the Lynah playoffs and in Lake Plastered.  During the Stanley Cup celebration at Dunbars this past year,  an older (than I, he was late 40's-50's, maybe?  It was dark.) gentleman came up to me and said, "I just wanted to tell you, my friends and I remember you from Lake Placid.  It was wonderful.  Can I buy you a drink?"  He made it very clear that he wasn't hitting on me, that he just wanted to buy me a drink in gratitude, which I appreciated.

I said to him, "Are you sure you're talking to the right person?  The last time I went to Placid I was a freshman, and I just graduated."

"Oh yes," he replied, "I couldn't forget.  I remember it like it was yesterday.  My friends and I think the Cornell hockey team is very lucky to have fans like you."

Indeed.  

I hope that the painted chicks in sports bras tradition in Lynah continues, but ladies, when I was your age, we took our over shirts off and braved the cold.  In a way, I see it as a kind of gender equality, a way that women can be the same sports crazed maniacs as men are.  Except that when we put our shirts back on and head to the bar, someone is usually willing to pick up our tab.  C'est la vie.

I was E, and I plan on being right back there in two weeks freezing cold in a sports bra.  GO CORNELL!

[jerseygirl]

Good on ya, Anthea.

Hey, I like your moniker.  Basically what's happened to the opponents after a mauling by Cornell: "gored".

I can see my hand right above Tom.  Oh yeah!  Good spirit by the ladies... although all my requests for "creative" lettering was turned down.:-P

[Tom \'06]

Well it looks like the Go Red Girls will be back for the March 12th game.  But due to some prior engagements, the saturday game might be a little short. But I'm sure they will come up with something.

[The O Girl]

We'll be there for Friday's Game... Sports Bras and everything;-)

Here's a YALE (really) challenge to the GO RED GIRLS!! Looks like you need to do some recruiting for the playoffs.

As we should all remember, that's not all that Yale girls are good for.
