That was about as low as we could go......thank goodness it turned around after that game. To think of where we are now and where we were then, it's night and day. But it also goes to show you how quickly you can rise and fall, especially in this league. It happened to us, and look at what has happened recently to WMU. A few years ago WMU was running the MAC West and was giving Marshall a run at the MAC title. Now, they are fighting hard to stay out of the cellar. I know a lot of people will not like hearing this, but it also goes to show how good Toledo has been over the last decade. They've been going to bowl games and have racked up some MAC titles and those are measuring sticks to chart how good you are in the MAC.

More information on the tailgate.

Here's a map of the campus:

http://www.buffalo.edu/buildings/maps/NorthCampus.pdf

Enter the campus from the South on Flint Rd. Make a left on Augspurger Road. The tailgate is in the Special Events Lot on the right a little ways down.

They will be there by 10:00 with a tent set up. There is beer, hot dogs and hamburgers for sale.

Don't you mean take a right on Augsberger road. From the South take Flint then a RIGHT on Augsberger will put you at the Special Events lot. I just thought I would clarify because last weeka Bobcat fan inquired here about best places to tailgate and I posted that they should get a campus map and look for an area behind Offenhauer and the rugby fields....but I know you are one of us!

It's gonna be tight to get there by the time the team bus arrives, so if we have time we'll stop by.

Are the burgers they will sell from Bill Gray's? Charlie Burgers from the place on Empire Blvd? Man what I wouldn't give to have a Don's Original!

Swoop, you are correct. Good catch.

Enter the campus from the South and make a right on Augsberger Rd. The special events lot is on the right.

Don's Original got flooded out when we had the big rains a couple of weeks ago. No big deal, closed one day and re-opened. Also, Alex Tahou (son of Nick) was in a pretty bad car accident with his family. He and his wife were in rough shape for a while.

Very good, LB! I hope to be there by 10 but with kids, ya know that doesn't always happen.

Will be great to meet some BG grads from the Buffalo Chapter.

GO FALCONS!!

Freak, I'm not bringing the princess this year. I'll be with the same guys as were there in 2000. Hopefully with diferrent results.

Make sure you follow the corrected directions above to the tailgate.

Different results? No kidding....man, that was bad.

Our Red Roof Inn is on Flint Rd so I think we're good. I made a note of the corrections.
