Kicked Out of Meyers And Sanford Stadium

OUCH!! Not only did ESPN tell us to GET OUT, Alabama did so too. TailgateUGA started early, with Barry Jr and team setting up on LumpkinStreet around 6:30 AM securing what might be a new SITE for the team(still TBD on vote). Missing in action this week were The Keatings, The Fines, and Cindi Prosperi. Something about not having tickets, I think. Well, they happened to miss a great time, tailgate, but a long day, and of course EYE witness to a disaster in QRT 1 and QRT 2 at Sanford Stadium among 94,000+ fans, most in black. The DAWGS fall from #3 in the Country to #10 and #11 in the polls(depending on the one you like). Now, it's all uphill, but recall 2007, the year when we lost to SC and Vandy, two Eastern Division rivals, and where did we end up at the conclusion of the year?-- Yes, I believe #2 in the Country. Stay tuned for MORE football. Enjoy the pix as well, we did have a lot of fun.

ARE U READY FOR A "BLACKOUT?"

Alright, Who's up for a 7:45 gametime? ESPN Gameday on site, a long morning and afternoon of tailgating? O.K. Thought so. We will provide clear updates on the tailgate later this week, but more than likely, it's an 11:00-12:00 set up. Barry Jr will have the tents set up by 7:00 A.M. so we don't get shut out. Remember, every past Alabama-GA game has always had the town rocking early on. For some of us, a lunch meal downtown, and dinner prior to the game might be in store. All that being said, plans are to hit the heavy food at the tailgate in the 4:30-5:30 hour. C U at the game.

CENTRAL MICHIGAN REVIEW

At one time, we counted 52 at the Tailgate.

Good times. Tailgate Success once again. According to our Chef, he cooked 35 burgers, 20 pieces of chicken, 20 italian sausage, and more. There was NO food left afterwards.

Another HOT afternoon, another DAWG victory. Great seeing everyone again, and we'll tee it up again between the hedges with ALABAMA-GEORGIA.

Central Michigan Update

Friends of tailgateuga- we will be setting up early again for this weekends tailgate. Barry and Dave will set tents and tables at 7:00 AM. Chef Dave will be on site around 8:30, with plans to heat the GRILL around 12:30. Please remember to bring enough for your anticipated group, ie food and drink. Ross Keating will not be allowed to drink for at least two more home games, due to his consumption at the GA Southern game :) We have some special guests attending our tailgate and the game from Savannah, GA this weekend and we look forward to having everyone meet the Blackburne's-our co-developer on Hotel Indigo-Athens.

C U at the tailgate!!!!!!!!!

DAWGS WIN, TAILGATE SUCCESS

The Dawgs win against a weak foe in Georgia Southern. In a sweltering heat, we set up tents, tables, chairs, a NEW grill, lots of food, and plenty of drink(just ask Ross). Over 45 joined us on the lawn of Meyers Quad for the opening game. Ross and Sharon, dedicated tailgaters, stayed behind to watch over drink and food, instead of attending the 95 degree game. When we all returned from the game(early) Ross had completely finished off ALL stashed booze, so we had to drink water and soft drinks. Well, at least he and Sharon preserved the food. Thanks much to the Keatings. Pix will be uploaded on a seperate posting from the days events.
DAWGS 42, SOUTHERN 21.
