Who Will Be Coming to Worcester

[Jim Hyla]

I may have extra for Sat. and Sun.. I'll also know Thurs..

Anyone who heard me griping about my headache before and during the early semifinal Friday knows that "overboard" applied to more than one person's drinking last weekend.  ::nut:: But at least none of our banners was as foolish as "Win or lose, we booze". :-P

Incidentally, let me just point out for anyone who didn't see it how cool the Cornell section looked with the entire railing of the upper deck covered with M&J's banners plus the "Big Red Country" sign and Age's Canadian flag.  Way to tell the whole arena "We are here!"  (I hope they did a long enough wide shot on TV for the viewers to take it all in.)

And speaking of cool, props to the RPI and Clarkson bands for each taking an anthem before the consolation game, after the Olympic Center played nothing before the early semi and we had to scramble for anthems between an a capella "Star Spangled Banner" from the Faithful and a hard-to-make-out "O Canada" from the Tech band.  I think all three contingents demonstrated we know the importance of national anthem rituals much better than the folks responsible for the juxtaposition of sanctimonious announcements about not "cheering" during the US anthem with a lack of official anthems before the early games.  (This means the Powers That Be were responsible for a total of three national anthem performances to the four from the fans and band, not even counting the usual a capella "O Canada" at the Cornell games, which had to compete with "I said ARE YOU READY?  Then let's GET IT ON!!!")

No such luck.  The only crowd shot they did was of the "Go Big Red" body paint folks.  They made the "ANSKY" guys look sexy.

At one point, i did see the Big Red Country banner

[jtwcornell91]

How about the Canadian flag?

[Adam \'01]

And how about the Swedish flag? ;-)

[Ben Doyle 03]

I'm not sure if this has already been discussed (. . .I'm on break and too lazy to go back and check). . .who is staying where? I have yet to make reservations and was wondering if there is one particular place the Faithful are going to stay. If there is, please let me know b/c I would like to get a room there or somewhere relatively close to that hotel.

[Adam \'01]

Hey Ben, I bid on a room through Priceline.  Got a two double bed room at the Comfort Inn in Auburn (8 minutes from the rink) for $45 a night.  The rooms on the Comfort Inn website were going for $80-$100 a night, so I certainly recommend Priceline.

Folks, for all it's worth I'll be there up in the high balcony 311 I think - bringing my son and a friend to help yell loudly for the Big RED!!
 
Cheers, Lou

[Ben Doyle 03]
