Reply to Pickup Soccer Games by offensiveoatmeal
Unsolicited nostalgia: the abundance of pickup soccer games in New Haven was a top 5 favorite thing about living there once upon a when. We were playing 6 days a week when this was cranking the most. Then, the games were primarily on Yale's property off 34 and next to the field hockey stadium.
Even in the heart of the winter, on Saturdays and Sundays people would show for the normal 10a game with shovels. We would routinely make a heinous drive across town, shovel a small field, and play ~ 3 v 3.
Wonderful people from all over the world.

The soup salad bread special was my number one healthy lunch go to when I worked downtown.
