Going to Union/RPI?

[Killer]

Who's heading to the Albany area this coming weekend for the Uinion and RPI games?

I haven't made any decision yet, and it might be tough sell for my wife, but it's something to consider.  And I hate having the memory of the Harvard game as my last in-person experience until the playoffs.

I seem to recall having no problem getting tix last year.  Anyone know if that's to be expected this year as well?

Just got 6 tickets for Union and 4 for RPI...not sure how many are left...Union charges a $2 premium for Clarkson, RPI, and (surprise) Cornell games so add that to the prices on the College Hockey Travel Guide.

Ice and snow sure as hell won't keep me from going to these games.  It sounds like RPI is really struggling this year and Union is playing very well.  We seem to always get up for RPI and get lackadaisical with Union...hopefully playing Union on Friday will help us play big for the big game but at the same time, we don't have the Saturday let down for RPI...they have played us tough recently even though we've won four straight.

Be prepared for that (edit: sorry, poor choice of a descriptor) woman that wears the Union jersey and hat with the annoying cowbell at Union.  Another edit, she was "seen" by the Albany Times Union...

Anybody wanna drive me up from NYC?  I'd rather not have to bum a car from my folks two weekends in a row.   ::worry::

The CALS Alumni group for the Capital District already sold 169 tickets for the Union game in sections 1,2!!!  Not counting the regular Cornell section fans in section 5.  If you haven't got tickets make sure to get these sections or close to them to sit with your fellow fans.

Well, maybe if anyone ever answered the phone at their ticket office I could...

Was that the same he/she/it that was in front of us last year?

As I mentioned in the other thread, the only cheer Union fans are capable of it "Let's go U".  Except they never say it themselves, they only say "U" over "Red" in "Let's go Red", cuz lord knows saying all three words is too much for them.

[atb9]

yeah, no kidding...and when you do get through to Union, the lady is an absolute b*^@#

[atb9]

oh yeah, that's the one!   ::twitch::

Is there any confirmation it's a woman?  I thought it was a guy.   ::screwy::
