Rice pre-game gatherings - Friday and Sat evenings in Sydney
Thanks to the efforts of Brian Mann, we have confirmed the InterContinental Hotel (117 Macquarie St, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia). as home base for Rice Fans on Friday and Saturday evenings.

- Friday, August 25, 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm, Cortile Lounge (bar/restaurant just off the main lobby)

- Saturday, August 26, 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm, Rooftop Supper Club (Club InterContinental) - a rooftop bar with beautiful views of the Sydney Opera House and the harbor

Please invite all Rice alumni and fans to join us. The Saturday night rooftop venue has a great view of the iconic Sydney Opera House and the first hour (8-9pm) is reserved only for those folks associated with Rice.

I hope these events were fun ... maybe they were the best Rice-related part(s) of the trip for the fans who traveled.

Did many Rice alums living in Australia/New Zealand attend?

Yes, some "locals" did... Sydney, Canberra...and others coming in from as far away as New Zealand and Hong Kong. There are about 60 Rice alums living in Australia and NZ (3 hour flight from Auckland).
