This will allow both the Brigade of Midshipmen and Corps of Cadets to attend. Current attendance restrictions in PA would not accommodate both. Salute to both academies in continuing a great tradition

No reason that game should not be at West Point every other year and in Annapolis as well.

Philadelphia makes symbolic sense for a game like that because that's where our nation was created.

Nah.I like it being in a big setting.Gives slot folks an opportunity to see the game who wouldn't ordinarily go to Annapolis or West Point.

I've never been to Annapolis but West Point is somewhat isolated and getting in and out of there isn't easy.

They also had it at the Meadowlands in the early 90’s. I was there for that one.

Neither stadium is anywhere close to large enough, and West Point is not exactly cut out to host 70,000 for a ball game.

Besides, both student bodies look forward to getting off campus any chance they get.
