...think not. In trying to more rigorously enforce drinking rules at the Harvard-Yale game, the Boston Police will ruin Harvard’s appeal as a venue. Anyone from Harvard who experienced last year’s Game at Yale knows that the Bulldogs will always beat the Crimson when it comes to throwing a good party.
