The tent was AWESOME!

Post by Bleeding Orange »

I just wanted to say thank you to all of you for making the tent such a great time yesterday. I don't have time to address you all individually, but I will single out Grant, since after all, he is our king (or crowned prince, I suppose). Thanks for putting that together once again, Grant! I can't think of a better way to tailgate! I hope you got enough in donations to cover the costs, too.

Anyhow, I just wanted to say thank you to all of you because I have not had such a fun time since I graduated from BG. You all are awesome! You too, TG - even though you're a douchebag. :wink:

Its back to the desert here in a couple of days, but I'll be going back with some great memories (and a slight hangover...). Gracias AZZ'ers!

I can't wait to see the pictures! It is always fun seeing everyone and getting fired up with a Freakling Falcon Screech! It is awesome.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. I am thankful for all of the fun we had at the tent and the fun we have on here.

Oh and GO KENT!

We had a blast too....except for the final score of the game! It was great to spend time with you, too! Have a great holiday and a safe trip back...although I think you SHOULD have stayed until Sunday so you could see another home hockey game!!!!! :mrgreen:

GO KENT!!

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

agreed. the tent was great, it was good to see you all and/or meet you all again! Thank God I had some beers stashed on me during the game, though... it gave me something to drink away the rough loss afterwards with. :(

With the exception of the outcome, we had a great time as well. Even though some jackazz lifted my cooler and made off with it.... :x I should have put it in the car. THAT won't happen again. There were only 3 beers left in it anyway and I can get another one at Wal Mart for $15.

Oh....and GO KENT! We'll be at the Rubber Bowl to cheer on the Flashes.

I hear ya Freak... hindsight's a filthy whore, isn't it? I had accepted that I only lost a pot that I bought just for the tent and an old ladle, until I remembered that my mom's good thermos was in there, too. I guess some people just need to learn to grow up and respect other's property. :x

Ah well, good to see you and the boys made it back all right! I almost feel dirty rooting for Kent State, but I think I can do it for three or four hours... :lol:

Thanks everyone. It was a blast!! It always is! Special thanks to everyone who pitched in to help cover the costs!! We got just about enough to cover the fee, and I'm happy to make up the difference. Way better than the last go-round!

Sorry for everyone who lost something. Sucks that some people just see it as a chance to steal and ransack. (yes, TG, I said "ransack!")

Here's a few photos from the tent. It was great to have Mitch there. Thanks to his bro for bringing him by! I had to make an early exit from the game, so don't have any game pics. But there are a few decent photos here. If anyone else has more to share, please do!

You did, indeed!!!

In fact, as I keep thinking, it's the ransacking that pisses me off the most. If we would have come back to emptied out coolers, I could deal with that. After all, I bring more beer than I plan on drinking anyway, so that there's plenty around. But the blatant theft of personal property is inexcusable, and the vandalism that appeared to be a fire extinguisher sprayed around the tent is ridiculous. We've all done stupid things, and kids will be kids, but the lack of common sense in some people's heads irritates me beyond belief.

I'd love for one of those little punks (or old punks, perhaps?) to be caught in the act and have someone do some ransacking on their head with a Louisville Slugger.

I'll bet it was those radio jerks from WSPD. (Fanning is a traitor!) WSPD is nothing but a bunch of right wing nutjobs.

They stole my Labatt's, but they left my Diet Pepsi and my cooler.............dicks.
