Dear Syracuse, I Can't Wait To See You Soon!


There's gonna be alot going on while your in Syracuse for Thanksgiving and you won't have much time, so I thought it would be nice to highlight some activities that would be worth checking out.  For those visiting for the first time, we hope you enjoy your stay and take advantage of all that we have to offer.

After you've stuffed your face with Turkey and caught up with the fam, it's now time to catch up with the 315, because we know you've missed us as much as we've missed you.

On Wednesday 
Make sure you check out all that's new in Armory Square as it grows every year. Check out Urban Outfitters (Notice construction of the Creek Walk to be completed in 2011 linking Armory Square to the Inner Harbor and Beyond).  You might notice construcion of a new indooor bus terminal away from Salina St. to be completed in 2012, this will re-open Salina St. to a flurry of activity including shopping, dining and art. Check out a few new culinary joints and a few new saloons. If your bringing a date home for the first time, take them for a skate on the Clinton Square ice rink and then maybe Raji's Tea Lounge for a warm sip.  If your going out to dinner, skip dessert, and bring your new crush to Biscotti's for something sweet and warm.

On Thanksgiving 
After the turkey and some football, get the family off the couch and head out to Lights on the Lake for a relaxing time before the tryptophan takes you down.

On Black Friday
After racking up some great deals...Enter the Christmas season in style with Tiny Tim and Jacob Marley as Dickens Christmas opens in Skaneateles.  If you've put this off in years past, now is the time to check it out.  You won't be disappointed.
If you'd like a glimpse into the progress of Syracuse's Creative Class and Near West Side make a trip to Rick Destito's Open House .
Oh, and don't forget that SU Hoops plays Michigan at 8:00 on the Tele from Atlantic City.

On Saturday 
The Bowl Bound SU Football team will play Boston College in the Carrier Dome.  Get tickets for a memorable afternoon of College Football.
If Football's not your fancy, bring your friends to see the Barenaked Ladies up close and personal at The Turning Stone Events Center.
SU Hoops will play the winner of Georgia Tech/UTEP at 5:30/8:00, again on the Tele from AC.


On Sunday
For a special brunch before you leave town, there is none better than L'Adour.  With the tastiest toast and exceptional service, they make even the French look good.
