Utah Tailgate

Submitted by jamiemac on

Good afternoon fellow mgoblogheads!!

As you may recall, during the coaching search back in December I boasted that Brady Hoke was not even remotely a real candidate and that if he got the job I would pay for and host an immense tailgate before a game this year.

Anyway, I still want to try and organize a tailgate for those of us who have become "cyber friends" (or as DanK/Michigan Arrogance calls it blog fags) with one another.  All would be welcome.

Would not mind trying to get some of us together for the opener. Not sure if it will be a big time blow out of a tailgate for the opener, but I am going to be up there and would be cool to pregame party with you all. If not a full tailgate, I'd settle for a quick group meet and good luck shot for the season before heading into the Big House!

So, let me know if anyone is interested in meeting up......and of course what your prefered drink and food would be. Its only a few weeks away, so might as well start planning now.

Any takers and/or thoughts. Fire away......and Go Blue!

I know that I'll be there, and with this unfortunate "aging" process my former tailgate friends have left Ann Arbor; leaving me friendless and pathetic. I'll be in town the night before almost certainly and definitely Saturday, so I'm in. I promise I'm not as big of a dick/loser as I seem.

I'll be in town around 6 on Friday - perhaps anyone interested could get some drinks and food at the Arena or BW3 or somewhere easy like that before going our separate ways into the night?

Hey guys!

I live in Toledo. I have no problem driving up for a drink or two Friday. I'd be driving back to T-town afterwards, so I wont be looking to tie one on, but it would be cool to drive up, grab a bite to eat and meet some of you.

As for Saturday, i can meet up anytime before the game for tailgating or drinks at a bar....whatever is going on, really......but, as of now, not sure if i can commit to anything that night.

If anyone wants to actually get together for a tailgate on Saturday, I am more than up for it. Otherwise, I might just bum around Ann Arbor and relish the fact that the season is starting and that I'm back on a college campus. To that end, if anyone wants to name a bar and a time, I will be there.

A local AA BlogFag needs to pick the location for Saturday tailgate.  Driving in from Toronto and meeting my son who is flying up from Atlanta to usher in the new RR era - tell us where to meet-up and we'll be there!

"i will be...at buffalo wild wings tomorrow around 7ish in A2 wearing shorts and a black polo shirt"

dex, you sound a little desperate for friendship buddy. can't believe it.

and just so I'm clear, is that a salad tossing and a donkey punch, or just a punch in the face?

Will,

Keegan and I will be walking around like vagabonds next weekend if we can't find people to tailgate with.  Maybe we could all walk around like vagabonds together?

Seriously though, I'm trying to figure out a way to do a "disposable tailgate" so I don't have to deal with the 3 hour trek out of the golf course.  If I can, we'll definitely have a spot and a beer for you.
