Xara, a female gorilla, reclines lazily in the tall grass, only centimeters away. Crouch down a bit and you can gaze directly into her astonishingly soulful eyes. Later, a dozen curious ring-tailed lemurs surround you; they're so close that some even reach out their small, dexterous hands to touch the sleeve of your T shirt.

Every year, students declare they will attend the game, but change their mind at the last minute, pressured by the stress of classes and a curious suspicion that they won’t have fun. But the tailgate and Game are always fun, even if Yale is hosting them. It only happens once a year, and it is certainly worth taking time out from studying to support a fun college rivalry. And for those freshmen worried that they might find themselves wandering aimlessly the skid row that...
