The pennant from the previous night's reception made a repeat appearance in Hanover.








Upon closer inspection we discovered that the previous occupants of our hotel room had covered each of the stickers beneath the sprinklers...

...with halves of peanut butter crackers.

Because of the snow (24" in Hartford?!) we stayed an extra day in New Hampshire, warmed by the fake fireplace.

I enjoyed being the halftime guest on WPRB's broadcast of the game.

If Soul Man knew about this, I doubt he would have been so eager to pose.

(Please don't tell these nice people about the Carnegie Mellon game.)

Jake Wilson from Basketball U. watches the game live at Jadwin while simultaneously streaming action in Ithaca and at the Palestra. Woah.

For the first time since the early 1990s I sat on "the other side" of Jadwin Gym. How strange to be able to see the players' feet during a game!

My prediction for the Trentonian headline on Saturday: "Little Big Man."

are. you. ready. for. mascot. night?

...and Duke is one.
Congratulations to Coach Thompson and the Georgetown Hoyas on their program-defining 87-84 win over the previously undefeated Blue Devils. I can't believe we weren't able to make the drive down to take it all in live. As a modest consolation Nicole and I stormed the living room at the final buzzer.
Then there was dancing.

One of my ten favorite fans at Jadwin, easy.


Friday night - fog.
Saturday night (pregame) - gale force winds.
Saturday night (postgame) - snow storm.
Sunday - locusts?

It was foggy on the way into Jadwin.

The light fixtures were for the Governor Corzine's inaugural ball on Tuesday, not because of some crazy halftime show.

(The above was accidently smashed on my knee when Princeton turned the ball over with less than a minute left in regulation.)

Took New Jersey Transit up to Madison Square Garden on Sunday afternoon to cover the Georgetown/St. John's game and snap the following blurry photos for your enjoyment. While it was confusing to attend a college basketball game where the team I was supporting scored 43 points by halftime, I think I could get used to it.
Hoyas won 79-64 thanks to a 20-2 run in the last third of the game.

Signage.

Not to scale.




Respect is back. Fear is next. Midriff is still in style.

Some Rice got cooked. This made for an easier theme menu than Owl.
The German Bureau (not to be confused with the Swedish bureau we purchased at Ikea) sends along the following photographs of former Princeton basketball player Judson Wallace, now a member of the Eisbaren Bremerhaven. The "Ice Bears" are 11-4 and in second place as of press time.
How do I create umlauts on this computer, exactly?






Wallace and Penn's Adam Chubb line up against each other one more time.


The Eisbaren celebrate a second straight one point victory.
