Located 17 miles apart, the colleges have played each other more than any other college football opponents. But their 150th meeting, set for Saturday, will place these low-profile teams on a very big stage: Yankee Stadium.

And this year, in honor of the 150th rivalry game, the marching band brought Eco-flame to the Big Apple. On Friday afternoon, they boarded a bus and traveled to the major New York City parks to play the Lehigh fight songs. The afternoon's stops included Washington Square Park, the Wall Street Bull, Highline Park, Columbus Circle, Central Park and even a subway station — which the band was sufficiently kicked out of.
