Given that they have announced a sellout, in a year of record Quaker ambivalence, how many here are intending to go?

I'm not. And probably will not watch live (at least without a jug of whiskey).

I will be there. My issues with Penn are much larger than basketball.

I will be there with my Tiger graduate son and grandson. This is the 25th anniversary of The Comeback at The Palestra when the Tigers overcame a 40-13 Quaker lead in the final 15 minutes. Quakers got revenge and the league title that season.

Is it telling that we have more Tiger than Quaker attendees, even in this thread? I can't bear the thought of seeing the Palestra with a lot of Orange and Black.

I applaud Steve for his dedication!

I'll watch it on ESPN+, probably on delay.

I'm hoping for the return of Clark and the end of the Princeton 9-game series winning steak (& the 3rd win over the Tigers in the last 20!). I'm more optimistic about Clark's return than I am about the win.

I'm not going, either. I have absorbed my share of pain this season. I went to the Columbia and Yale games.

I want to see us beat Princeton again before I die, but I suspect that this will not be that season.

If Penn wins tomorrow, I'm treating all board members (and their families) to celebratory pizza at Conte's after the game: For those of you who don't know Conte's:

I’ll save on gas and watch on TV for as long as I can stand it.

I just checked on Stub Hub and single tickets in a few sections (105, 113) are selling for around $50 each. The Penn no-shows should put their tickets up for sale so more Tiger fans can get in.

I think my body is still lying on the floor in Section 6 where it fell after the 17 point choke. Say hi as you walk by.

You mean wait in line for 15 minutes at their one stand for slop food?

Winning in Jadwin used to be my favorite day of the year. Now it’s a complete afterthought. Just despicable.
