Good to know my last experience there wasn't a one-off issue. What the heck happened to them in the past few years?!

I don't think it's just the last few years. One of the first restaurants I tried in Troy was Brown's and the service was garbage then (which would be 2009). The food is great, and I'll admit that I've never actually tried their beer (I was a week away from graduation when I came of age), but the service has always bad in my experience.

They have good beer. Not the best I've ever had, but I do seek it out (albeit at the bar, usually not food service). Their food has declined since I was at the 'tute. Maybe my expectations for service aren't as high, but when I went with FlagDUDETTE and a few others a while back, service was terrible even for my standards.

How the hell did you get through the Institute without getting bombed on the weekends?

I didn't say I didn't drink, I said I never tried their beer. It's a lot harder to get alcohol underage at a restaurant/bar than it is to get it at a party.

Hi, Engineers. Making my first trip to Troy on Friday night. Would welcome any logistical advice... Where to get a bite and some brew before the game, where to park, etc, etc. Thanks.

My only piece of advice is if your sitting in the visitor section it is section 19 not 9. The tickets sometime seem to print the 1 in the 19 where you cant see it that well. I gladly help those who are lost but I can't promise any of the others in section 9 will.

Once again we get whom I consider the worst ref in the ECAC, Chip THIS WEEKEND’S OFFICIALS: The Referees for Friday night’s game against Yale will be Brad Leblanc and Chip McDonald, while the linesmen will be Michael Emanatian and Jim Briggs ... Saturday night will feature Cameron Lynch and Michael Mullen as referees and Stephen Drain and Philip Kitchen as linesmen. http://www.rpiathletics.com/documents/2015/11/12//GameNotes_YALE_BROWN.pdf?id=2319

Great, so on Friday we have the worst ref and Michael Emanatian who has an aversion to dropping the puck. It is going to be a very long night.

It would not surprise me one bit if Whittet gets suspended for a game for calling out what truly was a terrible call.
