  • Help: interesting stuff to do in Albany NY/Tri-city area (paging RPI and Union fans?)

    Hey folks,

    So the girlfriend and I are meeting up some friends for the Dartmouth at RPI game on Saturday January 22nd. Puck drops at 4 PM (one of those strange ECAC afternoon starts). We will be driving from Amherst MA, which is about 2 hours on a good day. Our friends are driving in from Canton NY, a good 4 hour trip -- they'll probably join us before the game at Brown's Brewery Taproom in Troy for meal/drinks. After the game they are heading to a concert in Albany; the girlfriend and I will not be attending this concert.

    My questions are as follows:

    1) I've been to Troy and Schenectady only on hockey trips. Is there anything in the tri-city area besides hockey that may be of interest? Cool museums? Something along cultural lines... We are considering driving up in the morning and exploring until heading to Brown's around 2:30 pm.

    2) Can anyone recommend a place to eat after the game? Something with good food, and casual enough to allow folks wearing hockey jerseys inside.

    RPI and Union fans, maybe you can help?

    Thanks for any suggestions.
