The Tavern Downtown was packed at 5:30 today....many watching the women's game as well as bowl games...great crowd at the game....Joe D. mentiond that 14K tix were actually sold. Hard to tell the actual attendance but unlike the last efw games, the upper sections had a decent number of fans in the seats.

Had a good 5" or 6" of snow on my car after the game.

We were next door at Agave, it was packed as well. Love the BBQ pork tacos.

was there +5, even though my buddy driving had a little fender bender less than one mile from my house

couldn't navigate a turn, slid into a guard rail in slow motion. But he was a trooper, we pushed forward and loved the game

We were at Russian Lady before the game and was lucky enough to snag a booth and fill up on nachos & bud lights. Was sad to see Coach's closed down. Anyone know why?

Stopped in pregame yesterday. No food. Went to the Tavern which was crowded. Food there is okay at best but close to XL.

We went to City Steam before the game...burgers and brews, place was full. The snow made it more fun.

The strange thing was on I-84 I was doing 25-30 mph coming into Hartford at 5 PM and 35-40 mph going home at 10 PM after all the snow and with the snow still falling...With the street parking ban, I actually paid to park downtown for the first time in at least 10 years.

During the 2nd half, all 4 of my friends slowly started backing out of our plans to go out after the game. Almost stopped in solo at the Federal for a quick beer but decided to hit the road instead.

I was sitting in 104, but after the game everywhere I looked places were closed. I went home hungry.
