  1. Oh, that I knew. I thought Finley and Lee may have gotten into it last year and I missed it. Sorry...confused.
  2. Sorry, but what happened between him and Finley?
  3. Rathskeller is very cool.
  4. There is a Hooters in Madison.
  5. According to this http://www.collegehockeylive.com/ they will be on FSN-Minnesota...not yet on FSN-Wisco
  6. Just because he grew up in Rhode Island doesn't mean he's smart....geez, even a cheesehead no's this....
  7. Good Deal. The Concourse must be full or out of Priceline rooms now. The Sheraton is still showing $150 for Sat night and $170 for Sunday night. I called the Sheraton and they said they will be running a free shuttle to the Kohl center before and after the games. Bike path runs by the hotel, map here.
  8. When I was at the games in November, the Sioux shot at the goal on the section 101 side twice (that way the students get to harass Lammy for 2 periods). Do we know who the home/away team is?
  9. The student sections are 113 through 117, and everything above it (200's, 300's), but like the other posters said, probably no student section during these games, guess I didn't think of that.
  10. LOL I was hoping someone was going to start this thread as I know nothing about Princeton. I was going to start searching youtube to see if I can find any clips there. BTW nice meeting you at the F5, thanks for explaining all that pairwise jargon to me. All that math and acronyms gives me a headache...maybe it will sink in by next season!
  11. Oops, sorry Jonesy...you're always welcome here! Seriously though, they do love their speed. I think the majority of snowmobile deaths this season were people from Illinois, including a high profile Chicago TV anchor.
  12. Which section? One end is the student section.
  13. Hey Goon, was someone in your family wearing a green wig at the F5? I was stalking, er, I mean looking for you....lol
  14. Okposo is on VS now playing for the Islanders if anyone cares. I know, not the Okposo thread.
  15. Yep, still 65. LOL about the Illinois plates! We call em FIB's up here. Parking around the Kohl Center can be as high as $20 (Kohl center lots) and down, depending on distance to the KC. I have parked free on the street a few blocks away, but that usually never happens. 3-4 blocks away expect 5-10$ parking.
  16. Not alot of recent PL 2* or 2 1/2* wins lately, none downtown, but there are a couple in the Madison East zone. This La Quinta allows pets, a buddy recently stayed there for $40. There is also a Courtyard that has been won in the same ballpark, but they don't accept pets, these are 2 1/2 stars. The only problem is you'll have to drive to the KC and hunt for parking. The other problem is all other zones have 2 1/2* options, so no rebids, just one try every 24hrs. I would start at $40, and if rejected, add Downtown and go $50, but you may be upgraded to the 3* Concourse which doesn't allow pets...just dress Fido up in a Badger costume! The LQ has free breakfast. Maybe a Sioux fan in the area can pet-sit for you???
  17. No, you can't pick your hotel. You would have to call the known PL hotels first and see what there rules are. If your pet is quiet, I wouldn't worry too much about it, I've smuggled in pets before. I imagine it will be there during the games, and you can't really leave a dog in a kennel barking. EDIT: I called for ya, Concourse does not accept pets, Sheraton does for an extra $25. You could bid for a 2* (something like a Fairfield Inn, Holiday Inn Express, etc) usually these places could care less, and if they did, you could enter a side entrance or something like that. I'll do some checking on 2* in Madtown and get back later.
  18. I sent FSN Wisconsin an email about it, I'll let you know if I hear anything.
  19. Just in case anyone else wants to get this hotel, it has gone for $45 in the past (not to rain on your parade , you still got a good deal). Start by bidding Mad west 3*, and add Mad South and Mad SW for each rejection increasing bid $5 each time. Maybe you guys could carpool from Minny, and carpool to the Kohl (parking is a bitch there).
  20. Some hotel reviews: Concourse Hilton Sheraton If you want to use Priceline, but not sure how, I'd be happy to help you so that you stay in the area you want. The important thing is if your price is rejected, add a zone with a lower star level than what you are after, but maintain your current star level. Example First Bid Madison Downtown 3* $45 If rejected, rebid adding Madison South (only goes up to 2 1/2*), keep your 3* level, and up the bid to $50 If rejected, add Madison Southwest (only goes up to 2 1/2*),keep 3* level, and increase bid to $55. If you still are rejected, your done unless you drop to a 2 1/2 star, but you have to start over with the DT zone, otherwise you could end up in the SW or S zone. I know it's confusing, and can be a pain in the ass, but it's kinda fun too, almost like gambling! You can only use the same parameters once in a 24 hr period, so if you run out of bids, you have to come back the next day where you left off. If I know I have to have a hotel room a certain night, a lot of times I'll book a room online conventionaly, one that I can cancel later. Then I start bidding, and if I end up getting a room on PL, I just cancel my original reservation.
  21. Shield from Paul Conway (Wisco made)? Ever see the NY Jets guy? I was with a couple other firemen, they thought it was pretty cool too. Our union (PFFW) makes a cheesehead helmet.
  22. Nice. Saw you in the concourse a few times, and on the jumbotron too I think. Never put 2 and 2 together otherwise I would have said hi.You make that yourself? Is it a leather one?
