[markstanco 12525]

Trying to get some buddies to go to the city of brotherly shove this year for it.

[Leeroy Jenkins 2394]

I have. You will really enjoy it. Nothing quite like it.

[927 E. 41st 1124]

It's on my list, It'll probably have to wait until I retire. Been to Philly lots of times, not my favourite but the streets are cleaner than San Frans. 

[Iceman 2648]

been to 2. Balt in 2014 and Philly in 2015.

Best sporting event i have ever attended.

Liked it better in Baltimore than Philly, but both are fun.

Prepare to have your goosebumps feel like they are on steroids. get there early- don't just walk up at kickoff or into the 1st quarter.

Go Army!  Beat Navy!!!

I have back in 92 & 93. Great experience. 

[The Ace of Aces 5106]

Pro tip: stock up, on hand warmers and put in your socks. 

It’s an amazing experience 

[SurlyORama 164]

Going this year. Can’t wait. 

[AUS-97HORN 11682]

multiple times mid-80s-early 90s, but for full disclosure, they were at the old Veterans Stadium & Giants stadium.

 

Dad is a USMA grad.

had a good time, and the walkon the field combined with the intra-semester transfer students being repatriated is always neat to see

Holy shit - those were the exact same years I went.

OP - it's the only game that competes with the Shootout, except it's a completely different flavor of football (stamina over speed).  Do not, under any circumstances, leave until the Alma Maters have been sung - it's the final stamp of the final game of every college football regular season for a reason.

Shit, this room gets dusty just thinking about it.

On my bucket list. Would love to go

Went in 2005.  Coldest game I’ve ever been to.  But worth every freezing second.

Well both of you guys watched me walk on the field in 93. I was the good looking Navy guy. We lost to Army all 4 years I attended USNA. All of them were close heartbreakers. After the game my senior year most of my class just sat in the stands well after everyone left. We just couldn’t believe it. It is hard to explain what that game feels like and the emotions from both sides. My 4 years those emotions were mostly anger and disappointment.

Go Navy! Beat Army!

[Leeroy Jenkins 2394]

This is why it hurt so bad. We should have won that game.

Definitely on my bucket list as well.

Went when it was in Baltimore a few years ago. The pageantry is really cool. The game itself wasn't great, but that Army team was bad. The game itself has been much better since Jeff Monken got to Army.
