February, 1978: Disillusion--I had my Beanpot gig down now. My brother, a freshman with brother, a freshman with sophomore standing in Beanpot Appreciation, arrived with me at the Garden at 4:30, 90 minutes before the start of the Harvard-Northeastern opener. We played pinball (they still have one of those great old baseball machines in the lobby of North Station, on which Boston Garden sits), copped a few quarter-pounders across the street, watched the scalpers set up shop.
