Game #2 @ Boston College

[McKinney]

The past few times UMass has played at BC, the Alumni Association and/or Athletics rents a dining hall for tailgating. Food included with a cash bar. It was a decent deal in the past. Perhaps it is not traditional tailgating (or what passes for it in a parking garage at BC), but the dining hall keeps out BC fan interlopers.

Not that I have been paying any attention, but, until I just searched, I have seen zero promotion about this event:

No idea if this is official or what the deal is at all, but found this. For what it's worth.

I'm in. Just bought tickets for me and my son in section R, 15th row. Looking forward to it.

They have sent two emails, but that about it. Not a single thing, emails and event page, specify what you get for the $25, something I've provided feedback on a few times already... no such changes have been made.

It's not official official, but official enough if the Department is pushing it publicly more than the on campus reception. I plan to be there.

Uh oh, BC just scored two more touchdowns.

Planning to be at Cityside at 10:30am with a group! Hope to see you all there!

[InnervisionsUMASS]

Still plenty of tickets through BC available.... if you haven't bought yet, DO IT!

If you're looking for something a bit better, try one of the ticket agencies like Higs Tickets... prices are pretty cheap as well:

BC #34 in this week's AP poll - pretty meaningless at this point.

It won’t meaningless if we win.....

Planning on going to Cityside for pre-game. Coming in on the green line from Riverside. Does anyone know which is the best stop to get off?

[CarriageEstates22]

Get off at Reservoir-Cityside is a 3 min walk from the station. Impossible to miss it.

LOL #34? How do they get there count how many votes they received after the top 25? If you ain't 25th (or better) you're last. [I reserve the right to revoke this post the day UMass receives votes... If I am lucky enough to live that long]
