Take notice! Princeton is coming to town. Harvard football, men’s soccer, women’s soccer and field hockey are all facing Tigers at home this weekend. It looks like it’s going to be a nice weekend in Cambridge with some competitive matchups.
And it’s a good thing the games are at home. Here’s what you won’t be missing out on at Princeton:
1. New Jersey
Even though Princeton, N.J. is a nice area, it is still a part of New Jersey. This fact is a hard one to look past. We all know that New Jersey is the home of the infamous Jersey Shore. Plus, most New Jersey residents wish they lived in New York, anyway.
2. Rivalry
Of course Harvard wants to beat Princeton this weekend; it’s only natural to desire victory over one's opponents. But the Harvard-Princeton rivalry is an unnatural, almost fabricated one. Princeton wants to have its own rivalry, but it will always be Harvard vs. Yale. Fans, this is not “The Game”—it’s a game. It always seems like Princeton just feels left out.
3. Brooks Brothers’ Advertisements
The advertisement for Brooks Brothers’ new “Campus Collection” line was recently filmed on Princeton’s campus. Talk about feeding into stereotypes…this ad is exceedingly cheesy and, frankly, just embarrassing.
Plus, it’s Head of the Charles in Cambridge. Who would want to miss that?
