If it doesn't happen tonight, i think there are going to be mass suicides among the faithful due to stress.................... starting with me

I don't know if anyone else feels this way, but while a large part of me misses (and will always miss) being on campus and going to all of the games, part of me also is quite thankful that I'm not longer around to have to deal with all of this escalating line crap, and having to wonder if I, as a more devoted fan than probalby 90% of the students lining up for tickets, will get into Lynah at all.

I'm beginning to enjoy the peace-of-mind knowing that it'll be a reaosnable cost and no nights camping out to hear Adam call all the games, watch a few on the dish, get to a few up at Lynah on single-game tix that are bound to be available, and get to a few road games as well (Sucks, Princeton, Yale specifically).

Just a few short weeks....LGR!

Anyone else feel like starting false rumors about where the line is?  I heard from Gene Nighman's sister's friend's dog-walker that ticket distribution will be taking place at 660 Stewart Avenue. :-P Hey, at least you could eat Hot Truck while you wait. :-D

Um, do you expect undergrads at Cornell to have completed Journalism School?

Obviously not.  But some understanding of the basic principles of journalism, including ethics, would seem a reasonable pre-requisite.

Here, here.  The whole process in the end is fun as hell and oddly I enjoy it, but there's something to be said about not worrying for a whole week how alot of circumstances beyond my control will affect what tickets I get.  Though in my case being in CA it'll be mostly internet broadcasts (at 4PM nonetheless!).

 I just heard from a close friend of Gene Nighman.  They will announce later tonight the line will start at the Vet school auditorium up by B lot.  I don't know about you, but I am going there now.

Lets go Red![/q]

And I still cant tell if Ari was playing along or not...

[Jacob '06]

Getting ready to sit in front of my computer and check email constantly starting at 10pm.....what fun lives cornell makes us lead

[Ben Rocky '04]

Do you all think the announcement could come after 10pm?

[calgARI '07]

i'll be checking until 11 i think

[Ben Rocky '04]

$5 says its not tonight.  Anyone care to disagree?

[calgARI '07]

I'm starting to think the same thing.

[Jacob '06]

Maybe, maybe not. Everyone says they wouldn't do it on a prelim night, but I think its worse to do it on wednesday which is the night before a prelim night when people need rest and studying. If they were smart they'd just release it at 4am, and only the really die hard people would get there quickly, but too many people would complain. Instead we'll all just sit in front of our computers every night til they release it.

Ha!  French Rage couldn't confirm his own @sshole with a map.
