Come
See the
Penn
Quakers
Defeat
the
Cornell
Big Red
In
Basketball
At
the
PALESTRA
This
Saturday, March 8, Penn will
play Cornell in
basketball. The game will commence
at 7:00 P.M. Penn is currently
undefeated in the Ivy
League
standings. If they win on Friday
night against Columbia and
second place Brown
also
wins, a Penn
victory against Cornell will
clinch a share of the Ivy
League
Championship for Penn. This will be the last home game for the
Penn
seniors. We could use some extra
fans, as Penn's
Spring Break begins on Friday, so many of the students will be
away.
The
Palestra is the most historic gymnasium in America. If you have never been there, you should
try and make the game. It is a
great venue to watch a basketball game and there are few experiences that match
a close game in a packed Palestra.
This will not be a sellout and hopefully will not be close, but you will
get a flavor of the place.
Before
the game, there will be refreshments served at my
home:
Pre-Game
reception
4256
Regent Square
Philadelphia,
PA
4:30
P.M. until 6:00 P.M.
There
are people who live in West Philadelphia who have never been to a game at the
Palestra. It is an amenity for our
neighborhood to be so close to such superior entertainment. No alcohol is sold, so it is also a
great event for children.
If
you want to go to the game, we will probably have a group going. Tickets are $12, although I may be able
to get tickets for $6 under a group rate - less than the cost of a movie. I think that tickets for kids are also
$6 on a regular basis. If you want
me to get tickets, let me know ASAP.
Try
and let me know if you can come, but if you are not sure or have a change of
plans, feel free to just come.
