Seymour Historical Society to host presentation about Yale Bowl
SEYMOUR - The Yale Bowl will be the focus of a program hosted by the Seymour Historical Society at 2 p.m. Nov. 20.
When the Yale Bowl opened in New Haven in 1914, it had 71,000 seats and was the biggest college stadium of its era. Its distinctive design would inspire many other bowl-shaped stadiums, including the Rose Bowl in California.
In 1987, it was declared a National Historic Landmark.
In this program, lifelong Yale fan, author, and former radio host Rich Marazzi of Ansonia will dig into the stadium’s history, discuss its most momentous games and offer tales of the colorful players, coaches, and fans who built Yale’s football legacy.
Marazzi has plenty of expertise on the topic - in 2014, he published a 400-page book, “A Bowl Full of Memories: 100 Years of Football at the Yale Bowl.”

Trees seen through the window before the leaves fall
Continuing to capture the final days of fall colors. They soon will be just a memory.
Red sky at morning ...
Red sky in morning, sailor’s warning.
A red sunrise can mean that a high pressure system (good weather) has already passed, thus indicating that a storm system (low pressure) may be moving to the east. A morning sky that is a deep, fiery red can indicate that there is high water content in the atmosphere. So, rain could be on its way.
