For a normal game I wouldn't have even said anything but given that you're bringing your young daughter and a lot of their students are apparently going to show I thought it worth bringing up.
    Thanks! I'll monitor the situation. I'm not particularly sensitive about what she hears so long as she doesn't turn around and say it...

    DC -- thanks! We love Burlington. She and I went up together in 2011 for Tim Thomas's Stanley Cup parade and rode our bikes along that great bike trail across the lake. It's a great little city.

      The UVM parents are very nice, and I've not had the same experience as TTT. As for students - hard to say how many will show, or what behavior they will bring, but I would be surprised if they were as hostile and uncivilized as T3 experienced. The Gut is a nice old barn, and if you can get there early enough to hit the downtown waterfront area, all the better.

      Indeed, on the men's side, UVM students have a deserved reputation. Chants of "F$@* New Hampshire" are common, and they've even taken their act on the road to the Whitt, drunkenly trying to pick fights in the student section.

      That said, I find it hard to imagine similar behavior at a women's game.

        Hey I was there for that parade. Hanging with the Pelkeys!

          I think that is one of the biggest differences between men's and women's in terms of being family friendly. There are far fewer drunken hooligans attending women's games (and not just because there are fewer people in general attending women's games.)

            Probably a weird coincidence, but I've also noticed far fewer drunken hooligans posting in USCHO's Women's Forum!

                Only because Grant tends to get lost somewhere along Commonwealth Ave.

                    Congratulations to UVM on the success of Pack the Gut. Great atmosphere, the pep band was fantastic, and the crowd were enthusiastic and friendly.

                    Good game for BC, obviously. It was nice to see Haley McLean get her scoring touch back on the Grieves / McLean / Lemieux line. Other lines were Wasylk-Capizzano-Skarupa, Field-Trivigno-Doherty, Bizarri-Anastos-Leary. Interestingly, Erin Kickham seemed to be playing D and got in a lot of ice time.

                        WOW Bing-Bing-Bing-Bing-Goal Thanks for sharing!

                        If more Teams moved the puck versus lug and shoot it would be a much more exciting game!

                              And here I thought watching the Red Army Choir performing Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" was the craziest thing I'd seen today.
