AussieSiouxFan Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 I am a Sioux fan in the land Down Under and am in NYC during Christmas and New Years and in between am making the trip to Hanover to watch my first Sioux game live in the Dartmouth tournament. I wish it could have been at the Ralph, but beggers can't be choosers so just happy that i can watch my favourite hockey team at all. Anyway to the point, I was wondering if anybody was making the trip up to Hanover NH, curious how many Sioux fans will be in the stands with me? GO SIOUX!!! Quote

Sioux_Hab-it Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 I am still eyeing that one as it is only a five hour drive from here. The family plans for the holidays are still up in the air. Quote
SiouxFanInBoston Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 We're driving up from Boston. Look for the Section 4 Sioux fans in full gear! Quote
AussieSiouxFan Posted November 1, 2006 Author Posted November 1, 2006 Good to see some other sioux fans going to the tournament. I will be on the lookout. GO SIOUX!!! Quote
LeftyZL Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Anyone know what the closest major airport to Hanover would be? Is it Burlington, VT or Concord, NH? Or is Boston fairly close? Just tryin to see if this might be feasible...Thanks. Quote

Just tryin to see if this might be feasible...Thanks. Concord is closer but not worth it if you can get a better price by going into Boston. I am in the process of negotiating my attendace with the family and I am becoming more confident that I will be driving down from Ottawa. Quote
JESUS,family,rutgers Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Hello AussieSioux, Unless my Rutgers football team is in a bowl game in Charlotte or Jacksonville, I am hoping to make the seven hour drive from the New Jersey Shore to see my first North Dakota game on December 30. Hope there are some other enthusiastic Fighting Sioux fans there to see a Sioux win! GO FIGHTING SIOUX! GO SCARLET KNIGHTS--BEAT LOUISVILLE! Quote

But...I hope you get to go to a bowl game for your team instead. That would be super for Rutgers! Either way, have fun. Siouxmama Quote
redwing77 Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Hello AussieSioux, Unless my Rutgers football team is in a bowl game in Charlotte or Jacksonville, I am hoping to make the seven hour drive from the New Jersey Shore to see my first North Dakota game on December 30. Hope there are some other enthusiastic Fighting Sioux fans there to see a Sioux win! GO FIGHTING SIOUX! GO SCARLET KNIGHTS--BEAT LOUISVILLE! Don't make any firm plans for Dartmouth then. According to ESPN, Rutgers has clinched a bowl berth. What Bowl is yet to be determined but you guys are going to a Bowl game this year. The Sioux are often out east playing a series but Rutgers isn't often in a quality bowl game. If it were a choice I was going to make, I'd go with the Bowl game. You can catch us later by flying to Grand Forks and watching a game at the Ralph Quote
JESUS,family,rutgers Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 I hope going to bowl games becomes an annual event for RU. Between time and finances, Charlotte and Jacksonville are my only possibilities. One day I do hope to get out West--the closest I have been is Dayton! Quote
Gramps Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 We will be making the trip from GF. Flying into Boston and then taking Amtrak to Hanover. Should be a great trip, beautiful country and great hockey. Go Sioux!! Quote
AussieSiouxFan Posted November 2, 2006 Author Posted November 2, 2006 Thats is great to see that there will be some sioux fans in the crowd. Cant waait to be there in the crowd wearing my sioux jersey and seeing the best college hockey team in the nation kicking azz. GO SIOUX!!! Quote
Goon Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 We're driving up from Boston. Look for the Section 4 Sioux fans in full gear! So how long does that take, to get up there from Boston? I would assume its right up I-93? Quote
LeftyZL Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 This question is to whoever got tickets already for the tournament: How did you acquire them? I looked on Ticketmaster and didn't find any. Also, What is the most feasible way to get to NH? Is it cheaper to fly to Boston and then take a car/train? or just fly directly to NH? Anybody that has any useful information, I'm open for suggestions and/or advice. This sounds like a good road trip for my dad and I. Thanks. Quote

I called the Dartmouth arena ticket office yesterday - (603) 646-2466. It sounds like there are plenty of seats available. The UND section is in section 20. The lady told me you can order tickets from her or contact UND to get tickets in the same section. Quote
nodakvindy Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Boston to Hanover would be about 2-2.5 hours. Fly into Manchester, NH instead. The airfare on Northwest is about the same right now, but you are an hour closer, and it's a much easier airport to navigate. Rental cars are usually cheaper and there are fewer taxes and airport surcharges. Also, when you drop off the rental car, it is right at the airport lot, so you don't need to take shuttle like at Logan. And there is no big dig to worry about. Quote
Reformed Gphr Fan Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 Got our tickets in the mail today...just reviving this thread to see who is going and where everyone is staying... Quote
Sodbuster Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 Better check to see if the Sioux team is going.....maybe it'll be just a bunch of guys with skates on......as we've seen lately. Sorry... I apologize...just got done witnessing the latest...fizzle. Quote
Siouxmama Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 It's always a possibility that Sioux-cia and I will be there. Quote
brianvf Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 I wish I was making this trip. It would be fun to find that Dartmouth AD and yell "Go Sioux" right in her face. Quote
Sioux-cia Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 I've been checking flights. Geeze Louise, there's only crap going east from Phoenix. If I go one way, I have to leave a day early,because the flights don't get in until 7PM which is game time. If I go another way, I have to take the red eye. BUT, after hours, literally, of searching, I can fly into Hartford, NH, around 30 miles from Hanover and get to the game on time. Comin' back (to the rez), now that's another adventure! I wasn't going to go to this game because of the stupid Dartmouth AD and President. I thought about it and came to the conclusion this is not the Dartmouth athletes' fault or problem. This is a hockey tournament to show case our athletes, not a march on Washington. As much as our boys are struggling, I want to go and support them with my loud jersey, loud voice, big enthusiasm and wear my colors proudly all over that campus!! So now I just have to get Friday off and talk Siouxmama into going with me! Oh and where is everyone staying? I haven't had time to check that out yet. Quote
Sioux_Yeah_Yeah Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 I would love to go... But I have nobody to go with! And none of my friends want to pay money to those racist idiots at Dartmouth Quote
Sioux_Yeah_Yeah Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 Anyone know if any of the games are going to be televised?? Any info would be appreciated, thanks! Quote
JESUS,family,rutgers Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 My ticket arrived today! Thanks to the nice lady in the Sioux ticket office( I think her name was Donna). Looking forward to my first Sioux hockey game and hopefully it will be a win. GO FIGHTING SIOUX! GO SCARLET KNIGHTS--BEAT KANSAS STATE! Quote
