Did you mention that his SEMO counterpart not only attends tailgates but does beer bongs at them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is still on. Not sure what the turnout will look like, but I have the food ordered (sandwiches, wings, and chips/dip from Smokehouse) and will certainly be there (top of Olive/Compton garage), hopefully not by myself. The forecast does not look great, so what time do people think makes the most sense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a great idea and hopefully this can become a tradition a few games a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately it seems like everyone I tell about it is like that sounds like a great idea, but I can't make it and the weather forecast is working against us. Regardless, I am going to be there and I think this can just be the start of hopefully having some sort of semi regular tailgates to get some excitement going before heading into the game. Due to the cold, I have no desire to stand out there too long, so I am thinking I will get there around 5:00. Hopefully at least some folks show!

My wife and I will be there looking forward to meeting you and other billiken.com posters. Happy Friday. TheChosenOne likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am thinking we will start on the top of the garage and if it is noticeably colder up there as the sun goes down we can move down. 05 does this pretty incredible performance where he juggles torches while riding an unusually tall unicycle with strange Asian music playing, so that will put off some heat.

Can confirm after many frigid nights marching in circles for ROTC on top of Compton garage. The 2nd level is much more preferable when it comes to staying warm.

SluSignGuy Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I doubt I can make this tailgate...but would you like me to make a poll for attendance on the message board and put a brief message on the front page of Billikens.com. If so, what should the brief message be (100 - 150 words or so). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a message like this should work: Come join us for a tailgate prior to the Troy game, Saturday November 10th at the top of the Olive Compton garage. There will be sandwiches (chicken and beef tenderloin), chicken wings, chips and dip, and beer provided. We will likely be starting around 5:00 and heading into the game around 6:30. The more the merrier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slu let the dogs out? Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Sounds fun! If I can make the game tomorrow night I'll stop by for a bit! Looking forward to being incredibly disappointed in what everyone is like in person. rgbilliken and TheChosenOne like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
