Did anybody happen to take a picture of the tailgating from on top of the hill? My friend from OSU is talking smack about how big their tailgating is and I just wanted to show him how it's supposed to be done.

I've been to dozens of Ohio State games including 3 OSU/UM's. The tailgating environment I experienced Saturday was surreal.

I second the motion. I would love to see pics if anyone has them.
I couldn't go to the game. My wife just had our third boy last week.
I am personally trying to breed future Falcons to play defense.

I've got some pictures but haven't had time yet to post them. I'll try to get some up after the hockey game tonight. Unfortunately none are from the hill.

I LOVED the tailgate saturday, after being to dozens of tOSU games, home and away at bigger schools, BG felt like a tailgate for the nat'l championship last weekend. I would love to see that every week!

don't get too excited..wait and see how it turns out this saturday when OSU plays...thats what sets them apart the most.. the fact they get it each and every week, BG gets the atmosphere when osu doesnt play. this week was a tease, just a taste of what it could be..but it still doesnt compare to others
i have a feeling a lot of it was because OSU was off. good time to schedule homecomming for BG

Thanks, but I think I
will get excited. I don't care why we had a big crowd and awesome tailgating, fact is, we had it. And I, for one (actually for two), will do my part to help replicate that come Saturday.

F*** Ohio State. I'm tired of people trying to use them as an excuse for everything. We have a good thing going and just need to keep getting bigger and win some championships.
If I wanted to see a bunch of outlaws playing football I'd go up to Toledo.

Who cares if it was not as big as OSU? All I know is that I have never seen the tailgating area so lively and active before. It was nice to see so much orange out there. I was having so much fun out there I almost missed kickoff.

his friend is right..theirs is 20 times bigger its a fact. there is no use in sending him a picture if you are trying to show him how big the tailgating party was compared to ohio state because you would have to be flying high in an airplane to even think about taking a picture of all the tailgating at OSU. there is no camparison is the sizes of the talgaiting.
it was a good try though.

Please show me where that many people that were there Saturday are allowed to tailgate at OSU? I'd venture to say if it exists, they are not as close to their stadium.
My friend got a ticket for an open container right next to the Shoe during a UM tailgate.
Saturday, there was a row of kegs and beer pong.
Sorry, I stopped drinking the red Ghetto Juice a long time ago.
