May 21

he was sitting in the bleachers alone. Nobody was even noticing him. Later I googled "Why was Paul McCartney watching a Yale football game at the Yale Bowl?) and got an answer: he had a nephew there.

Later I found out he had his limousine wait for him in the Yale Parking Lot and left quietly after the game.

Later I found out that the Yale Bowl had an office just for arrangements with office holders such as Congressmen and any other luminaries who wished to attend games there. ONE BIG EXCEPTION: the Yale Bowl cannot adequately protect the President or Vice President. Therefore, they cannot attend Yale games.
