I will be there with my wife, daughter, son in law and two grandkids. The game is at 12:00. What time are you meeting at Professor O'Cooles ? I went to Greenville two years ago. We had to park in a designated area and took a bus to the stadium. Tailgating is not easy so having a place to gather is not a bad idea.

Do you need to buy a ticket to the Alumni event like the NAVY game, or is it just open this time since it's at a bar? Also I have an extra ticket if anyone needs one

With the game being at 12, we were hoping to have people begin to meet at Professor O'Cooles around 10-1030.
Even though we are technically still advertising this on the UConn Alumni Association website- Professor O'Cooles wound up being pretty difficult to deal with so there will not be catered food or a formal ticket process like the Navy game. We are highly encouraging any UConn fans coming that do not have a place to tailgate/meet to meet at O'Cooles and drink/meet/engage, however there is no formal ticketing process or sign in. Its simply a spot that the Alumni Association is encouraging people to meet at before the game that do not have anywhere else to go. Hope this clears things up.

Combo of a lot of things. I was helping Josh Proulx and the Alumni Association try to set up an event through the UConn Charlotte alumni chapter. O'Cooles was the only one that would commit to us a space large enough to hold enough people to host an event. We had been in contact with them back and forth and were trying to finalize a food menu and sign a contract and then poof- they stopped responding to us. We reached out to them multiple times to which they either never responded or "took a message". We hadn't heard anything from them in almost 2 months and then they contacted us on Wednesday and asked if we still had interest in doing the event at which point we said no.
