Absolutely. I ran into some peope at a Dodgers’s game a few years ago in LA. I was wearing my Lehigh cap. They asked me if I went there, and then, we started talking. Here, they went to a ‘big rivalry game’ every year. Michigan/Ohio State; Auburn/Alabama; Florida/Georgia; Cal/Standford, etc. They said that they had gone to the Lehigh/Lafayette game a couple years earlier and were amazed at the intensity and volunteered that it was every bit as intense, if not more so, than any of the other games listed above. Marveled at the tailgating (game was at Lehigh that year, which has a better layout for that). No way can you appreciate the rivalry through the tube. It must be experienced, and preferrably with a little ‘influence’.
