Army Navy!

For those of us not fortunate enough to have tickets to enjoy the game in Philadelphia, join alumni, parents and friends of the Service Academies for the 110th playing of the Army - Navy football game on big-screen TV at the

Buckeye Hall of Fame Café

1421 Olentangy River Road

Saturday, December 12, 2009

2:30 PM – 7:00 PM or until game ends

The Details:

Cash Bar, including soft drinks. Beverage prices are reasonable. Fountain sodas cost a bit over two bucks, and free refills will be available all afternoon.

A great (and reasonably priced) sandwich/salad menu will be available throughout the game. Individuals will be able to order individually from the menu, and your cost will be whatever you choose to order.

The Buckeye has an extensive game room, so bring the kiddies. (Makes for a good sitter)

Parking is free, unless you choose valet parking (although at that time of day on a non-OSU football Saturday plenty of free parking should be available). Valet parking is for tips.

Bring along your families, neighbors and friends or a youngster

who might be interested in attending USNA or USMA.

(Did we forget to mention USAFA? Oh well……….)

No RSVP is necessary. No admission cost is associated with this party.
