Minneapolis Roll Call

[Ack]

Agreed.

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

I'll be there.  Staying at the Super 8 in Roseville.  

Let me know if there will be any organized get togethers.

By the way, I've found out UND fans call Mariucci "The John"  as in John Mariucci Arena (and similar to "The Joe").

My advice to people on the fence about taking the plunge and going to Minnesota:

Just Do It.

Commit yourself to the ticket and don't look back.  It may be rough, it may be pricey, it may even be really crazy, but it's always going to be worth it.  If you're not doing anything this weekend other than your normal routine (or heck, even your normal Easter routine if you swing that way), there's no excuse good enough to keep you from doing it.

I've done the insane one-day-only cross country flight for hockey (to Vancouver, in fact).  I was harassed by the border patrol for four hours, I had no hotel room and almost no money, I slept on a park bench downtown in the pouring rain (I don't recommend that part) and got kicked out of McDonalds because they thought I was a homeless freeloader, but when I got in that rink in row 7 almost at ice level, it was worth it.  When I saw that 1-0 victory that turned the season back around (until the playoffs anyway...), it was worth it.  I know that doing the same crazy road trip for a playoff game--a Cornell playoff game--would be THAT much sweeter.

And now you know that your pep band manager is certifiably insane.

Would anyone like to split a package from NYC with me on NWA?  It would cost $300-350 including hotel leaving from JFK, maybe LGA.  Please post.

Plane ticket purchased last night.  Game tickets purchased this morning.

See you in Minnesota!

[dadeo]

Yea - Im in Banshee's camp.
Took the plunge.
got myself a plane ticket (with car rental) for 360.
All it took was a CC number and a click of the mouse and now there's no looking back.
LETS GO RED.

I am so f'ing jealous of all of you. I hope that there is a place to watch the game in Iowa City.

Hell, I hope I can find a place to watch the 12:30 AM tape delay in Iowa City. (I can avoid the information until then, right?)

[Janos]

I'm down, along with 2 others...

LGR!

edit:  Hmm...  perhaps not.  Still hoping to...

[A-19]

i'm in now, along with jamie "devil horns"

today i wore my harvard sucks shirt to harvard classes. i figured having 1,000 people hate me would be a good practice for 9,000 people hating me in minnesota. then again, no one cared today. shows how much i know.
