Author Topic: Rochester Raging Rhinos vs Sheffield Wednesday Dick Vaughan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1032 From: Bradford, West Yorkshire, UK Registered: Jul 2000 posted 07-07-2006 07:34 AM                        I have just discovered that my home town football team, Sheffield Wednesday ,is going on a pre-season tour of the US and on July 22 land in Rochester ,NY to play the Raging Rhinos. By a twist of fate I will be in Toronto from 17-31 July brushing up on my IMAX SPP skills so Saturday evening football looks quite attractive! I am wondering if any Film-Techers, I'm thinking John P here,can recommend reasonable price acommodation and eateries near Paetec Park?  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 07-07-2006 08:43 AM                        Information about Rochester, the Rhinos, and Paetec Park: http://rocwiki.org/PAETEC_Park quote: PAETEC Park is the stadium for the Rochester Rhinos soccer club, who compete in the USL 1st Division. The Rochester Rattlers outdoor lacrosse team, a founding member of the MLL, also plays its home games at PAETEC. PAETEC Park is a new stadium which opened on June 3, 2006. The stadium, located only a few blocks from the Rhinos' old home at [Frontier Field], was built to serve the local teams and fans of sports played on a rectangular surface.
