If I recall, plebes are not permitted to remain in Philadelphia (and party!) at the conclusion of the Army-Navy game. Unlike the upperclassmen, plebes are herded back onto the buses and taken back to the Naval Academy.
Is that still the case?
The reason I ask is this: If you want to spend some time with your plebe during that weekend, it does not seem you get much bang for your buck by actually attending the Army-Navy game. You cannot even sit with them from what I remember.
It seems to me parents are better off visiting with them on the following Sunday (the day after the game) in Annapolis. Attending the Army-Navy game seems to be a better idea once your mid is no longer a plebe.
Can anybody in the know confirm this to be true.
Thanks!
