Episode 74 of "Gilmore girls"
s04e09 Ted Koppel's Big Night Out

Rory and Paris have lunch at Yale with Richard, who introduces them to his friend, Professor Asher Fleming... during Friday night dinner at the Gilmore residence, Lorelai asks for an invitation to the Yale-Harvard game even though Rory clearly gives her an out... Emily is irritated when Lorelai shows up for the game wearing Harvard colors... the Gilmores tailgate in style with flasks, an RV, a BBQ, and servants to wait on their guests... Emily is upset when Pennilyn Lott, Richard's first girlfriend, shows up and asks about the Inn, and Richard is forced to confess that he has continued to have a semi-annual dinner with Pennilyn the entire time that he and Emily have been married... Lorelai takes Jason up on his earlier offer of a dinner date, but they end up leaving the stuffy restaurant and having a great time dining al fresco at a local grocery store... Rory walks back to the dorm after the game and discovers Paris kissing Asher Fleming. (Thanks go to Bambi Bell for this summary. )
