Eyebrows raised up higher on sweat-soaked foreheads when the band began to switch instruments during the second hour of the show.The music started to spiral in the last few songs. The vortex left the dancers so dizzy they could only jump. And just when it felt never-ending, the band rushed off stage, begging an encore and teasing the masses.

Like all meaningful brushes with history, visiting the Palazzo Ducale plays constantly with your sense of time. Look at Ideal City or peer down the seemingly endless spiral staircase in one of the towers, and you feel the chasm between past and present.

After the Dukes, the only visitor to Wien Stadium that looks manageable is Yale. An 0-2 start could easily spiral into an 0-10 finish, so it’s imperative that Columbia takes one of those two opening contests. The Lions should be able to manage that, and possibly even take a road game at Princeton or Dartmouth for a 1-6 league finish...
