Originally posted by ARM View PostDifferent person then, both for me thinking I heard you and you thinking you've met me. I've never seen TTT in the East, only here, and I've never been to Conte. Unless you'd ever consider coming west if the Huskies make the NCAAs, it will have to wait. In Durham in a couple of years, perhaps?
And if the Huskies were in the NCAAs out west I would definitely go. I was planning on going to Minneapolis if we had made it this year. Might be in Quinny this year too. Hell if they had a weekend series at Minny I might go, heard great things about the U of M area.

Originally posted by NUWH DogHouse View PostWell of late if you have heard me in action it is only doing the color. But I seem to remember it being a quarter final at Conte and the eagles won. I didn't go to Agganis that year, I typically avoid that place (the bu strip mall can be hazardous to the health of Husky fans in NU gear). I was walking around with TTT and I recollect him talking to you and saying you were ARM on here, but that was before I was a poster myself.Grant Salzano, Boston College '10

Scary? Me? If you thought me scary, you'd never dare attend any men's sporting event other than maybe figure skating."... And lose, and start again at your beginnings

Eben's Hearth - a small American restaurant located on Route 11, directly opposite the University entrance.

They have a bar with a "big beer" special on Saturdays, although the bar isn't the focus of their business. You can get just about anything there, it's decent and homemade.Russell Jaslow

Originally posted by OnMAA View PostLast weekend it was $4. For the semi's you got two games for $4, as the ticket was reusable for the second semi. (I lost mine along the way so had to buy a second to get back in) On Sunday it was $4 as well for the Final.
That is the same as it was in past years, so I suspect that that is standard Clarkson pricing.Russell Jaslow

Originally posted by FireKnight View PostIt's lost a little bit of its atmosphere in recent years but Clarkson-SLU is still the best rivalry game in all of sports that I've been to and that includes Army-Navy and Yankees-Red Sox. It amazed me that two towns literally shut down for the games and the rivalry that exists. The underperformance of both men's teams of late as well as the struggling economy up in the North Country has really put a damper on things. I've never been to a BC/BU game, but I have been but I used to go up there every other Thanksgiving when we CCT/SLU and BC/BU played alternating home series every year. I can't imagine the atmosphere at Conte comparing to Cheel or Appleton, although I could see it at BU's old arena.
The village itself is really a step back in time to a lot of the old mom-and-pop stores that were small town America before WalMart and box stores took over the planet. The townsfolk are friendly, even if they speak with a distinct Canadian accent. Although Potsdam itself is a bit of a cultural center of the North Country, if you drive a half mile or so outside of town, you'll see the effects of the struggling economy. I always try to support the local businesses while I'm there, especially because the campuses, Clarkson in particular, have really hurt them in recent years by trying to become a resource for everything the student needs.Russell Jaslow

I encourage more people to chime in on this Eben's Hearth vs. McDuff's debate. I don't think you all realize how seriously I take this discussion.
Eben's Hearth wins hands down. Better wings, better atmosphere, can walk to & from the arena (less than 1/2 mile).
Whenever I go back to Potsdam and I'm down a quart, I get a Sergi's pizza roll.
Let go Tech!
