Would be great to get a ton of people there for the soccer team. Alas, I'm too far upstate to make it back, but I'll be there in spirit.

This is literally a 20-minute walk from my place. If I wasn't at a wedding, I'd be there to watch them.
Should be a fun game; Columbia's stadium is actually kinda nice.

I'm a senior now at Columbia (parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts all went to Michigan or did research there, hence my allegiance)...it would be great to see some maize and blue in the crowd.
For those wondering, easiest way to get to Columbia's stadium is by taking the 1 train to 215 street or the A train to 207. From there it's a 5 minute walk (you can't miss the stadium or Columbia's other athletic facilities)
Very safe neighborhood, and inwood park is a beautiful place to walk around along the water.
Hope to see you all there!

This sucks! (Well, sorta) I'm headed to ND for the game. I'm currently a 2nd year at Columbia Business School, and this is precisely the kind of event I would love to have gone to. Hope we go 2-0 on the day. Go Blue! Beat ND, Beat the Lions!
