Mary Beth and I attend at least one NC$$ Men's Basketball Sub-Regional each
year in addition to the Phrozen Phour. Unless a hated rival appears in
their bracket, the locals usually wait the first half then totally support
the underdog as it sniffs an upset bid.
Of all the four teams, I bet the majority of attendees in Providence
Thursday will support SLU, especially if BC does not put them away early.
Moreover, many people favor the pagan school over the religious one - hence
the great dislike for Notre Dame shared around the globe.
Very interested, however, if the Minnesota and Wisconsin supporters will
back the Fighting Sioux.
'til then. Carpe Diem.
Make it a Great Day.

Subject: Frozen Four odds and ends
First of all, I want to say thank you to the Hockey-lers who
came
through for me with some tickets, their sympathy at my
situation and
their leads to tickets. I have managed to come up with some
tickets to
the games. Thank you very much. Of course, I could still
use more. So,
if there is a North Dakota or Maine fan who doesn't think
they will be
up for the second game, please let me know and I will buy
your tickets.
And I will also take more tickets for the final but I don't
really think
I will be that lucky to get some.
Secondly, does anyone watch NBC's drama Providence? Well,
the Frozen
Four got mentioned in last night's episode. They put in the
plug that
the college hockey tourney was in Providence this year and
the tickets
hard to get.
I just happened to think. The final four teams in the ECAC
tourney were
all mainly some shade of red with white or brown. But all
the teams in
the Frozen four are very different in color. St. Lawrence
is scarlet
and brown. North Dakota is green and white. Maine is blue
and white
and Boston College is maroon and gold. I would love it if
all those
Wisconsin fans show up in their red along with BU, Cornell,
Miami,
Ferris State, and RPI. Just to name a few.
Thanks again for your help. I am very grateful. I look
forward to
meeting everyone at the gathering.
