How to Get Your BC Football Tix
JamesAmong the many concerns for an incoming BCLS 1L (e.g., how will I know if I’m a gunner?; will I have a gunner in my class?; what is a gunner?), perhaps none is more important than how to order BC Football season tickets.
For $145, you can get a full season student package for all seven home games. If you’ll be away the weekend of Thanksgiving, you can also get a student season package for $120 minus the Maryland home game on Saturday, November 29. These tickets require your BC ID at the gate (or at least the BC ID of someone who could pass for a distant relative) and are general admission for the student section.
2L Wins National Law School Home Run Derby
Earlier this month, BC Law sent one men’s and two co-ed teams to the 25th Annual UVA Law Softball Invitational in Charlottesville.While the teams represented BC well, an individual performance by 2L Dan “Heal-basa” Healy resulted in some hardware making its way back to Beantown.
Give us an overview of the UVA Tournament and the home run derby in particular.
Dan: The UVA Invitational Law School Softball Tournament is the largest gathering of law school softball teams and players in the country. This year there were 112 teams from 49 schools. More than anything else, it’s a chance for law students from around the U.S. to get together for a fun weekend. Most of the action happens on Saturday, which features games all day, a BBQ, home run derby, and bar review at night.
BC Law Eviscerates Harvard Business School, 17-0
…with sunbeams of rugby love. This past Saturday, BC Law Rugby combined with Suffolk Law Rugby (hereinafter, where appropriate, to be known as, signifying, and replaceable in any and all grammatical constructions, whether express or implied, “BCS”) to take the field against a common enemy, those MCAT-loving, champagne-sipping, baby seal-clubbing Harvard Business Folk. BCS and HBS alighted upon the fields of the Irish Cultural Centre, Canton, MA, in puffs of pixie dust and green slippers. The day started dark and dreary, but once the thundering boots of the BCS herd began to echo across those fields, the weather blues were chased away, and it was clear skies such that God could get a good view of some rugby. And, boy, the wee folk squealed with blood-curdling glee as they broke from tunneling through Native American grave sites to watch some MCAT-lover drubbing, champagne-sipper smashing, and baby seal-clubber clubbing, as BCS routed HBS, 17-0.
Is Roger Clemens the next contestant on Dancing with the Stars?
Roger Clemens testimony today has a nimbleness that his form would not suggest. Maybe he’s taking a new form of steroids, I mean not steroids. This on Andy Pettite’s comment about the Rocket’s HGH use: “Once again, Mr. Congressman, I think he misremembers the conversation that we had. Andy and I’s relationship was close enough to know that if I would have known that he had done HGH, which I now know, if he was knowingly knowing that I had taken HGH, we would have talked about the subject. He’d have come to me to ask me about the effects of it.”
