(65,200 posts)POTUS, due to an inability to keep him/her safe. However during the Obama administration, one of his daughters (at Harvard then) attended and, on the Yale side, Paul McCartney (nephew at Yale I think). Year before last (no Ivy League games last year due to Covid) there was a demonstration on the field by climate activists from both schools. They sat down on the field (Sam Waterston, Yalie, was among those demonstrating). The governors of both states were there and tried talking to the demonstrators and they were persuaded to leave but only after it had grown rather dark (no lights at the Bowl). They left and the game proceeded and Yale won. We had left thinking Harvard had won and afraid it would be too dark to find our way out to the parking area. It was only later when we learned Yale had won, scored twice.
