Yale bans drinking games at Harvard-Yale game - Oct 27, 2005
Yale is banning drinking games from this year’s football game against Harvard and will shut down all tailgate parties after halftime — a move some alumni say could put a damper on one of college football’s oldest and most storied rivalries.The Ivy League contest, known simply as “The Game,” dates to 1875 and draws nearly as many fans outside the stadium as inside. Students and alumni fill U-Hauls with kegs, grills and hard liquor
“We don’t want to send hordes of students to the hospital after each game. Drinking games are meant to get people drunk,”
I play drinking games mainly for the camaraderie and the love of the game.
What harm can a little binge drinking at Yale cause?
