Title: Fall, Tailgating, College, and Drunkeness Post by Brian_Y on Jul 31st, 2003, 7:45am Some of the thoughts of football on my Death-to-the-New-York-Yankees thread got me to thinking...Down here (the South) we have this tradition on game day called tailgating. Pack the car (preferably the SUV or station wagon) full of food, booze, grill, food, booze, booze, and booze and then you get to the stadium when the first light hits the horizon (even if the game is that night) and you proceed to consume it all. Wearing navy blazers and repp ties is not uncommon. O yeah, then you go to the game later. Most likely under the influence with the flask in tow. Anyone got any good tailgating stories we can share as college football rounds the bend? What's your alma mater? Me? University of South Carolina and the University of Iowa (where they don't tailgate...heathens) I have a few, but I'd like to hear some of y'all's. BTW, last night, I stood out in my backyard and could hear from a high school a mile or two away, drums beating and the trumpets blaring. They was practicin'. It's right around the corner!!!! http://www.rmc.edu/alumni/images/tailgating-1.jpg |

Title: Re: Fall, Tailgating, College, and Drunkeness Post by echo on Jul 31st, 2003, 8:48am Love to tailgate. Invented at Viking Stadium in Minneapolis in the 60's. When we don't go to the Chief's games due to the extreme cost of the tickets (Bastards) we just hang on the deck, make lots of noise, BBQ, eat, drink and then go inside to watch the game to keep from freezing to death. Just around the corner -- can't wait. |

Title: Re: Fall, Tailgating, College, and Drunkeness Post by Brian_Y on Jul 31st, 2003, 8:58am Tailgating invented in Minnesota? Echo, there HAS to be some CH.com penalty for spreading LIES in this fine forum. You wanna get banned?? O, and I have no idea who those girls are. I googled tailgating and that was there!!! They need more booze, methinks, tho... |

Title: Re: Fall, Tailgating, College, and Drunkeness Post by Brian_Y on Jul 31st, 2003, 9:48am One pf the best times I had at a game. Night game, but we got to the stadium, ohhhh, around 7 AM. I had a whiskey sour and a bagel for b'fast. That was the beginning of strange times. Carolina was playing Marshall. Well, after 8+ hours of drinking and eating chicken wings, we go to the game. I had a flask of vodka in my blazer pocket. Ugliness ensued. Carolina lost. To Marshall!!! After the game, we needed to drink more as we were sobering up. Some inbred crackers from West Virginia came by and started talkin' shite to us. More ugliness. I never bitch slapped a redneck before. It was COOL!! I told him: "Boy, you sure got a purty mouth". **POW** I got cut off by the bartender. Fucker. |

Title: Re: Fall, Tailgating, College, and Drunkeness Post by BruceD on Jul 31st, 2003, 10:12am So Brian, you're a Gamecock-Hawkeye mix. I guess I won't hold that against you ... one of my best friends got his PhD at SC and we (wifey & I) used to visit them down in Columbia often. The Hawkeye part ... well, that's another story. Me, I'm a Badger and yes, Wisconsin does tailgate. It's actually not an option ... more of a requirement. Tailgate the Packer game ... the Badgers ... the Brewers (who R they?) Actually, I think that whenver 3 or more cheeseheads get together a tailgate is required by law. :) Also, tailgating is not "real" if you don't have at least a dozen brats boiling in beer and another dozen grilling over the coals. BTW, football season is already started for all you nay-sayers. We got training camps .. .wooohooo! Take care BruceD |

Title: Re: Fall, Tailgating, College, and Drunkeness Post by Gofishgriff on Jul 31st, 2003, 10:17am Bruce, Beer and Brats! Man does that sound good right now!

Title: Re: Fall, Tailgating, College, and Drunkeness Post by Brian_Y on Jul 31st, 2003, 10:20am Bruce, Got a very close friend who bleeds Packer Green and yellow. He goes to Lambeau at least once a year (he's from Wisconsin) and he told me about the most AWESOME tailgating tales. Said there is this polka band that goes around playing and they put a bucket down while they play, but yr supposed to fill it up with beer. Love that story. THAT'S tailgating!!! As for Iowa, yeah, I did my MA there. LOVE the Hawkeyes, but I am a southerner and I bleed garnet and black. We do tailgating right down here, n'est-ce pas? |

What??? Cathi, I don't know how you & I are going to be friends?? ;D I remember the first time that I tailgated in college. I was going to San Jose State and we were playing our local rivals Stanford (boo hiss >:() at Stanford. Well, on our side of the parking lot it was all Fords, Chevys, Buicks cooking hot dogs & hamburgers....On THEIR side of the parking lot it was Beemers & Jaguars cooking steaks, crabs, & lobsters.....well that put us in OUR place! :o But we DID win the game so that's all that matters!

I support your LOVE of the sport.....just never developed that instinct, I guess.....one of the things I appreciated about my husband was his lack of interest in football......now, after many years, he not only watches every game, goes to them, follows the stats, but he has ALSO discovered the joys of golf.......

And you need 2 so they can entertain themselves while the masters sleep it off. I know I have missed something... |
