OK...so when does the petition to “Save Our Pee Troughs!” start?

I have never had to wait more than a minute to urinate at the Dome. Even at halftime against teams like Miami, Tennessee, or Texas. Save the troughs! Save the troughs! Save the troughs!

 

[CA Monk]

I never had to stand in line to pee until someone pointed out that I was peeing at the hand-washing station. Oh well, live and learn.

Hey, no one is perfect. We all make mistakes.

Better than washing your hands and face at the pee trough...

Yale Bowl is a special place to watch college football.

Too many double IPA’s at the tailgate?...

A man after my own heart...keep the pee troughs alive!!!

Some of you guys would have never made it.

Or All-State Lacrosse. Pretty cool.

True story. Basketball game, 90’s. Dude with a beer in each hand, and his crank out peeing in the sink.

Are they taking those out in the renovation?

Curious who is going to be the sick devil to take the used troughs and install them in their man cave.

That’s the rumor...

*raises hand
I think they’d make nice flower boxes.

Yale is such a fascinating place. That school has more money than most developed countries, yet it purposefully keeps it's athletics facilities somewhere between quaint and dilapitated.

I was at the same lacrosse stadium the day after you, and there are no rest rooms in it. For some reason it shares that ancient pee trough station with the Yale Bowl (which is, of course, located in a building outside the Yale Bowl).

I go to a couple hockey games each season there, and the rink is all wooden bleachers with the only food options being hot dogs, chips & nacho cheese, and candy.

Meanwhile at SU we have to take on a 4th mortgage to add 20 more craft beers to the Dome menu.

College sports make no sense.

I did this my first time at the dome, was probably about 8 or 9. Turns out not the worst place I've taken a piss.

 

[Faegan]

Yup... saw the Yale/GTown lacrosse game there.

If you peed in the hand-washing station when you were 8 or 9, you were a big kid!

Syracuse has a more lucrative athletics deal than Yale. And monies are allocated accordingly.

No doubt. It’s just that if Yale was so inclined they could fund athletics palaces. But instead they have pee trough huts.

Yale along with many Ivy’s don’t want to appear as though they put athletics ahead of academics. I heard recently that Princeton was considering downsizing or eliminating their football program in part to make room for more academic buildings. In addition, their endowments are widely known, so they don’t want to jeopardize their tax exempt status by building commerce castles while places like New Haven aren’t doing that great.

Yale is building a soccer/lax building adjacent to the field with donor money. It won’t be open to the public however.
