I know it's an indoor meet, but the 'feels like' temp is supposed to dip down to -20 tonight/into tomorrow morning. I live in the Boston area but even that is too cold for me to be out!
Just saying this now when people inevitably talk about the low turnout. I hope I'm wrong though! Maybe I'll feel brave enough to check it out in the end.
Aren't 98% of the fans just parents and kids who ran at the meet? Pretty sure they'll still show up

lol, i'm sure a lot are. they made a 5,000 stadium though. that's a lot of space.
This is Boston. We shanked the British. We drink Guinness for breakfast. We catch hockey pucks with our teeth. We yank wicked stage dives at hardcore shows. I think we’re gonna be okay this weekend.

Fortunately the meet is in a heated indoor stadium and it's tomorrow afternoon when temps will be back into the mid teens. Better buy your tickets soon though, general admission is sold out and there's less than 200 seats left in the gold and silver sections.
"Feels like" temps are just a bunch of BS by the way. When is it ever super cold and not windy? If it's five below and windy, then it feels exactly like every other time I've experienced five below.

Strange that some people on this board hit dislike as soon as they see a post from someone in the Boston area. Why would that be?
