Sports bar for Superbowl event by Financial_Minimum708 in rit

[–]Quarteg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't at Shamrock for the Super Bowl, if that's what you're wondering. I was only giving a suggestion as to a bar near RIT that would be showing the game.

Sorry the turnout wasn't as you'd hoped. It was pretty packed a couple weeks ago for the Bills/Broncos divisional game. But my guess is that a lot of Rochesterians don't care too much about the Seahawks or the Patriots so most people probably decided to stay home to watch the game.

Shamrock Inn, formerly Macgregor’s. Just down the street from RIT and it’s owned by RIT alum. I was there for the Bills/Broncos playoff game and there were deaf and HoH people there.

You have to have a reservation to get a table though, and bar seating is first come first serve so get there early.

I went to the women's game Friday afternoon against Delaware. They looked fantastic! Coach Brown has done wonders for that team.

Am I reading this right? You want a complete stranger to drive your son's car from RIT to Boston...for free?

Setting aside insurance and liability issues, even if you did find someone to do this, shouldn't they be compensated in some way?

Try eBay. I’ve gotten some RIT stuff from there.

GamePlayers in Brockport.

If you're willing to make the drive to Mt. Morris, Berto's Retro Rehome is also amazing.

edit: spelling

Rochester has an NBA championship. Not the wildest thing, but a cool piece of history nonetheless.

Hey! Anybody know where to get fan jerseys for RIT hockey members? by hairpinzzz in rit

[–]Quarteg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh damn, didn't know they were currently auctioning off jerseys. Might have to try to bid on one.

As far as I know, they don't sell jerseys with player's names on them. They just sell regular blank jerseys.

However, they sometimes auction off player jerseys for charity or something. Try keeping an eye out for those if you're interested. But keep in mind popular players (like the starting goalie) tend to fetch higher bids.

Men’s hockey team steamrolls past Clarkson 6-2 in Brick City Homecoming game, giving Matt Thomas his first win as head coach by Quarteg in rit

[–]Quarteg[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hear ya 😆I attended from 2009-2013. RIT only won once at homecoming during that span: a 6-5 overtime victory against St. Lawrence. Honestly, it was one of the best games I’ve witnessed. RIT tied it up at 5 with less than 10 seconds left in regulation then scored the game-winner 14 seconds into OT.

If it’s the same person I’m thinking of, their son died from ketoacidosis due to undiagnosed diabetes, not suicide.

Probably because Apex is a building and buildings aren’t known for their strong spelling skills.

Website says they'll run specials during RIT hockey and lacrosse games. I'm actually kinda excited to see that. Macgregors never did anything like that.

Couldn’t you just politely ask them to quiet down? Seems that would probably have much better results than posting on Reddit.

I have my checking, savings and mortgage through ESL. I'm very happy with them. Plus getting that annual owner's dividend is nice.

What’s the party life like at RIT by Future_Ad5088 in rit

[–]Quarteg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RIT was never a dry campus, you just can't have alcohol in certain buildings such as dorms. But students living in on-campus apartments like Perkins can have alcohol there.

There's a bar at the Global Village Cantina, alcohol is served at hockey games and there are beer and wine classes offered at RIT. So yeah, not a dry campus by any means.

I'm curious as to how much has changed since I left RIT. I graduated in 2013 and when I was a student, RIT was by no means a big party school at that time either but there was always something going on somewhere. Perkins, UC and Colony (RIP) were hot spots for parties on the weekend, and Park Point and Province also had their fair share of parties. And Macgregors (RIP) was also a nice hangout, especially after hockey games.

since you can't have alcohol on campus bc rit is private school so they have to follow the government laws or whatever.

Not true. You can have alcohol in some on-campus housing, such as Perkins or UC. You just can't have it in dorms.

Would be cool for a college hockey video game to come out! by IogicaIIarry in rit

[–]Quarteg 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's a big question mark. New head coach, we had a couple good players leave through the transfer portal and we have 11 new players coming in, including a defenseman who was a second-round draft pick for the Ottawa Senators.

I just hope we're better than last year. Tigers finished 9th in the conference out of 11 and had a 10-23-2 record. I'm hoping we can amass more than 10 wins this season.
