Regina Pizza yesterday - check!And if you have never eaten at any, and I mean any, of the Italian restaurants in the North End, you simply must do this. You will check off a life long item in your bucket list.
Same.Getting on a flight to Boston in a couple of hours and I still haven’t bought a ticket to the game. Hoping prices drop a little but definitely getting nervous given the game being 17 hours away
I'm with you both. Prices aren't too bad. dropped to ~$200 per ticket on ticketmaster and stubhub. Keeping my eye on things, but definitely dropping the hammer by noon.Same.
Starting to look like these may not come down all that much. Very little movement since last night, was hoping to wake up to the bottom having dropped out.

I know what you mean. I have eaten at both Boston's Little Italy and in Sienna, Italy.I highly recommend the Florentine Cafe, Mario's, Carmelina's, Davio's, or Ristorante Limoncello.
i just dined at Florentines 10 days ago, and the ragu was every bit as good as what I had in Sienna last fall . . . .
Ask me how I know . . .
We thank you for your sacrifices this time.Sacrifice:

In addition, as you can see from my avatar, I was at the 08 Rose Bowl showing additional evidence of my bad karma. I was at Game 3 of the 16 World Series (Cubs lost for you Cardinal fans) as well as the Bartman Game in 03.
Based on my long-standing multi-sport lack of success, a year ago I planned a trip to England to visit my daughter, followed by a 2 week cruise knowing when the tournament games were scheduled. You will all be happy to know I will be over the mid-Atlantic at tip-off on Thursday. I will be at sea during our 2 Final Four victories. I have done all I can to break my jinx on the team. I ask all of you to do what you can to help the team.
I’m about to board my flight in ORD. No tix purchased yet. Mad at myself because there was a first row seat in section 305 for $302 (including fees) and didnt pull the trigger. Now I’m hoping that something better comes when I land. I’ll be inside regardless and it’ll all be worth it! See you all at Hurricanes.Just pulled the trigger while waiting for my (hour delayed, thanks Southwest!) flight at MDW.
Prices did tick down a bit but they seem to be stabilizing now and I saw total listings are around 400 when they were well over 500 last night so it looks like the late buyers have arrived.
See you all at Hurricanes!
Was able to snag a set of row 1 in 313 for $370 per, all-in.I’m about to board my flight in ORD. No tix purchased yet.

Username may or may not check out.Great to hear we will have a strong contingent there. If not for an upcoming move, would be there with you all!
Worth it.On a short layover in Baltimore from FLL, and of course my flight is delayed but hoping to touch down by 2.30p, hotel by 3p, and be at Hurricanes around 4ish.
For what it's worth, I got my tickets a few days ago for $1,600 (Inc fees) for both games tonight AND the Saturday game. A bit aggressive but for 3 top games, I (barely) justified it, see you all soon. I-L-L!!
I'm happy to say Hurricanes is PACKED w literally hundreds of Illini rocking the Orange and Blue... If this is any indication, we'll have TD Gardnen packed! If anyone is here, I'm at the bar w the hot brunette and I look like an older/fatter Vin Diesel in an orange and buy Illinois jacket, come say Hey!Worth it.
I’ll have a beer waiting for you at H’s

At least you can see the sky. I was looking at a brick wall at one hotel I stayed at. At another I had a view of the lobby. I had no idea what was happening outside.
