So who is going tonight? Hoping for a strong purple contingent. Will be getting there early most likely, so any recommendations for quick cheap eats would be appreciated. Go Cross Go!

Heading up early afternoon, will probably grab an early dinner in the North End; Massiminos is a favorite!

50/50. Considering a double dip with the 4:00 hockey game at the Hart Center.

Going
Probably not early enough to eat anywhere too far away. There's a bar on Comm Ave right outside the roof (I forget the name). Likely to grab a burger there if I'm in town by 6ish.

I did confirm that there are Disney on Ice shows at Agganis at 3:00 and 7:00 so that may make parking somewhat more of an issue than it otherwise would be but I can't imagine there will be more than 1500 people at the game.

I can't imagine there will be more than 1500 people at the game. A pretty good bet. Average attendance last year was 700.

The answer, as for all things Fenway and points west, is El Pelon on Peterborough Street.

A pretty good bet. Average attendance last year was 700. Yikes. I knew it was bad. Didn't realize it was that bad. Think it was 2 years ago when there were about 20 fans at the HC vs BU game at Agganis, NAD and myself included. I'm sure the snowstorm had something to do with that!
One of the refs, Tim Kelley, did that game and let's just say he made a few poor calls! Needless to say, we let him know! Being the happy go lucky guy that he is, during one of the time outs, he looked up at us and held his cupped hand to his ear, indicating that he couldn't hear us! Well, he must have remembered me because when he came out to do the Marist game last Friday, he looked over at me, smiled and said "Merry Christmas"!
I'll be there tonight to root on the Crusaders! Go Cross Go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

alcove- Welcome and post often!! I'll be streaming from here in FL. One of the things I miss most about no longer living in MA is going to HC bball & fball games. It was my chief form of recreation. I truly miss being able to be on campus there, so many hundreds of times at Fitton and Hart. THANK GOD for the Internet--thank you Al Gore.

Thanks, Lou, but I was being sarcastic/facetious [take your pick]. I figured it was being streamed but not on the publicity list of games in the e-mail . . . and this being a Turnpike Trophy game!
Since I plan to be at the game, doesn't make much difference to me personally but you would think this would have been the first game listed considering we are the reigning PL champs. Sigh.

 So noted! Thought this review was interesting on yelp!: "Don't even think about going here unless you are an underage girl and know one of the bouncers."
