I am hoping to contribute to the tailgate this year. My oldest boy has a soccer game at noon so 2:00 is the earliest that I could get there. I am planning on bringing some Jambalaya. Would somebody have a way to heat it at the tailgate/plug in a crock pot.

I have a camping stove that I will be bringing. I use it for my chili, but if you can't find a place to plug a crock pot into, you can heat it on the burner.

I'll have my power inverter there. We had good luck keeping the pulled pork hot with that at the KSU game. The inverter is rated at 500w, so you may want to check the bottom of your crockpot to make sure that it is below this and you should be good to go (plus leave us a little power to turn on a TV

). I think my crockpot was only like 140W.

Jambalaya sounds good...I've always wanted to try making some, but never have...good stuff!

My buddy at our duck club calls it punch your momma in the mouth good. I never thought about a power inverter, I think my brother has one I could borrow.

Not gonna be able to do any tailgaiting this time. CYO football in Toledo at 1:00 on Saturday is gonna make it hard for us to get to the game any earlier than about 3:15.

Logan and I will be there.

We are thinking about getting in at about 10:30, play a round of 9 hole golf (feed the lake monster), and get done about 12:30. Which will leave us only 3 hours to tailgate, kick field goals, watch the team walk, play in the Kid Zone, drink at the Falcon Club....

We'll be parked just south of the scoreboard in the season pass lot, but we move around alot just taking it all in.

Extinguish Eastern!

We bought a generator.....power shouldn't be a problem!

I should be there as well. If I can find a place to crash on Friday night I'm hoping to be up for the hockey game against UConn (I'm oh so happy hockey season is here!!!

). I'll try and bring some libations, and maybe even some of my famous cornbread if I can find some pans!

Two things:

1. Hammb - I owe you bear. Let me know what you want.

2. FF - do you still have those fries and tater tots from the Kent game?

My first choice would be a panda, because it'd be cool to have, but I understand they're hard to get your hands on nowadays. Second choice would be a Grizzly, that could be fun.

Either way I want to be just a cub so I can train it to do my bidding.

...um, I think so, but I'll check the freezer when I get home!!!

I'll bring the deep fryer again, and maybe we won't get too drunk to make those fries this week

I will most likely be there at some point with wife and kids in tow. She wants to do the "other" homecoming stuff too. I told her there is no such thing and the AZZ tailgaters are the best!

This is shaping up to be a great weekend. Mrs. Freak's parents will be out of town this weekend but we are still spending the night in Huron. I told Dana if she didn't want to be in BG by 11AM, let me know and I'll bring the Freaklings with me and she can drive her dad's car over later. That way I can stay later after the game as well.

We'll be spending the night in Huron Saturday night as well. Too bad that hockey game vs UA-Huntsville is Sunday.

I'll have the grill if anyone needs to use it and TG's Bud Lite (just kidding dude! LOL). I want to be in the lot no later than 11 AM. That means the Freakstyle is leaving Huron by 9:50 AM.

I can't wait to Tailgate!!

GO FALCONS!!! ROCK EMU!!
