There will be an Ay-Ziggy-Zoomba.com tent set up in Meijer Tent City before the UT game. This is on the East side of the stadium as always.

Some people have asked if they are "allowed" to come. Please...

This is an open invitation for everyone and anyone who frequents this site! Whether you're a long-time and frequent poster, or a lurker who just stops by once in a while. Bring your friends! Even your UT friends... as long as they can handle the ribbing they may get. ;-) I did opt for a smaller tent... but that shouldn't be much of an issue.

If we want to discuss who might bring what, please feel free to do so in this thread. I plan on taking half a day off and heading to BG at around noonish.

I'll have the remaining T-shirt inventory available for cash & carry sales too!

Looking forward to a fun Tuesday night!!

Sounds like a good time. :oops:

We'll be thinking of you all as we keep our fingers crossed that ESPN doesn't cut off the game like they did last night ... or last year. :evil:

Met a very interesting guy at last night's game. His name is Markus and he flew over from Germany to watch the Miami and UT games. He is a semi-pro football coach over there and his here to watch the team this week and learn from them. I think after last night he will be a BIG BG fan (he already had some nice BG stuff including a flag) and said he can't wait to get back to Germany to talk about the game. I figured I would send him over the tent for a little tailgating. It would only solidfy a good trip for him. I'll tell him to search you out Grant.

That'd be great!!

I'm also going to extend a welcome to all the local media and Warren St. John, author of Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer. Not sure if they'll make it or not, but it's worth the invite!

i haven't been to an azz tent yet... so i think i might stop by this time. i'll be sure to bring plenty of beer and a few good friends. cant guarantee the beer will be too good though, unless you enjoy the refreshing cold taste of natty light, as i've found it to be the greatest and best beer ever made.

I'm stunned that I haven't been banned yet....should I bring my stove so y'all can burn some chili?

You'll be passing the hat to cover your out of pocket right?

I might just bring some pizza...or maybe I'll steal some food from the Merrill Lynch tent :twisted:

I'll bring the hamster and a wheel if someone else can pick up a few electrodes. :wink:

Seriously, though, someone tell me what to bring. I'm excited to be able to stop by the tent for a little bit, but when I get excited, kind of like Chuck Norris, all I tend to bring is pain unless I'm instructed otherwise.

If I do indeed bring only pain, I'll be sure to hang out with some UT fans.

To even call your typical American Light Lager a beer is a real stretch. To call it the best beer ever? C'mon...time to branch out and try a beer that actually tastes like beer!

haha, i guess u didn't catch my sarcasm. i definetly dont think its the best beer ever, however it is my beer of choice when consuming mass amounts. only because of the fact that its cheap and i can afford it. i'd have to say my favorite beer is blue moon.

Just wanted to throw in a good word that Markus is the man! Might even be taking him on a bar crawl this weekend if he's available! Talk to him if you get the chance!!!
