Harvard-Princeton Football Tailgate (and game, I guess)

Don't be fooled. Ivy Leage football may have a storied past, but today it is rarely exciting. A team comprised of high-achievment students who were admitted to top U.S. schools on academic merit, is really detrimental to the quality of play (the Waterloo Warriors team could shred either Princeton or Harvard from what I saw)

The way to get around this uncomfortable fact is to have a massive tailgate party. And that's what we did. Most of the Harvard community had some sort of function going on, but the Business School tailgate seemed to be the best fun around. Here are a few pictures, and a couple from the actual game (we only made it for the 4th quarter).

Making preparations for the other important competition of the day: The Flip Cup Tournament. (Like boat racing, but when the drink is finished, the player has to place the cup with the edge hanging off the table, and flip it over so it lands upside down on the table. Once this has been done successfully, the next team member begins drinking).

Victory is ours.

There was actually a football game that day too...

...though most people stayed at the tailgate.
