    I wasn't sure if I should post this in the game thread or not, so feel free to move it.

    Are any of you guys going to the pre-game pep rally before the game? My wife and I are gonna head to the area a few hours before the game, so I'm not sure what we'll do. Maybe go to the pep rally, hit up a bar, or something along those lines. Maybe a little cf.net meetup to get ready for the game?
