from ESPN:  kinda disappointing...no boxing gloves for this roadtrip  :'(

QuoteCowboys fans aren't nearly as rabid as Eagles and Steelers fans, but the Cowboys have more of a worldwide audience. If you stay in the team hotel, you'll see something pretty remarkable. No matter where the Cowboys show up (even Appleton, Wis.), there are at least 30 fans waiting for them in the lobby. Texas Stadium is iconic because of the hole in the roof, but now it's simply a dump. This isn't a fan base that feels a great deal of hatred for certain teams or players. In fact, I think Texas Stadium is one of the safest places in the league to wear an opposing jersey. The most hated player from an opposing team is now lining up at wide receiver for the Cowboys.

So I get called into the bosses office today; there's a conference call going on and I'm told that I am headed to Austin for three days starting next Monday the 15th. Fly out of Houston and arrive in Austin around noon.

farging beautiful.

Right after I booked my free flight on Continental last night w/ One Pass miles for my ticket on Monday the 15th to fly up for the game. So I had to scratch and claw with them to get my miles back. Thankfully I had a really sympathetic agent who released the seat back into circulation.

But the matter at hand, the game...GODDAMMIT!

Why does this have to be on a Monday night? And why do I get the shaft?

My boss tried to get them to let me fly in on Tuesday after the game from DFW...no luck. The VP is the one who ordered it and would not budge.  >:(

A good way to advance your career is to ask your boss to change your travel plans so that you can go to a football game.

Well, I've known my boss for years and I'm friends with his son who was supposed to go to the game with me. So I wouldnt have done it unless I knew him. And the VP had no idea about the request to change due to a football game.

Is one of the jobs covering the eye of Hurrica Hannah? Because if not, get on it ASAP - I could use a good first hand account of the storm.

Either that or a dead MDS.

How was the trip muthafargers
Title: Re: Official @ Dallas Tailgating Thread
Post by: PhillyPhreak54 on September 16, 2008, 09:33:00 PM
I'm flat out tired. Flew into Dallas yesterday morning, worked from Dallas and rode with my boy while he worked too. Went back and met Steve and Die-Hard at the hotel. Drove over to the stadium and got there about 5. We didn't tailgate because we didn't have time. They don't even allow tailgating to start until 3:30.

Dallas fans are the LAMEST shtein talkers ever. Even the Carolina fans were better. No joke. I mean, how many "Go back to Philly", "you're gonna have a long flight home", "McRib/McFagg/McNugget", "5 SUPERBOWLS!" can you hear? Get creative.

I was one of three Eagle fans in section 111. The only one in the top half. I caught some shtein, but again, it was lame. Most of the section didn't show up until mid-2nd quarter with some even showing up at halftime.

The only guy who wanted to get zesty was some redneck in the top row one section over. I walk up with my boy and he goes "Who the farg gave you permission to be here?". He's wearing a cheap ass Romo silver jersey and had some flip flops on and was drunk as farg. He then proceeded to call me out to the aisle telling me "I'm going to punish you!!!" I didn't bite on it. Even the other Cowboys fans were telling him to shut the farg up.

I thought I would walk down to get a beer and he'd confront me. My plan would have been to throw him down the steps. Simple and easy. Too bad he didn;t last past the first quarter. He either got his ass beat or got locked up.

Walking out it was even lamer. Especially the fat chick and her "funny" boyfriend and friends telling us 'Dawkins and Samuel like big cock in the butt".

I wonder if Steve and Die-Hard are alive. We got back to the hotel at 2 and they had to leave at 4 to catch a flight. I was up at 6...flew back to San Antonio and then had to drive to Houston.

Great time, aside from the result of course.

One of the funniest things I've ever seen happened after the game - Jay, Steve and I were walking out of Dennys back to the hotel at about 2:00, and 4 guys, as Jay correctly put it - good ol' boys - rolled up in a truck absolutely shteinfaced. Like .50 BAC shteinfaced. And they were old....One guy musta been in his 70's. These guys were stumbling into Dennys and playfully started giving us some shtein. We started talking to them, and they showed us pics on their phone of some girls "buttfloss" who was sitting in front of them...Seriously, think of a drunk 70+ redneck saying the work buttfloss. So, I asked them if they had any beer left, and one of the guys says "Well, er, there are, er two things I can, burp, tell you - One, I'm glad we all kicked y'alls asses, and burp, two i'd loved to done give y'all some cold ass beer"

So we drank a beer with some old drunk fargs and left for the airport.

I got "harrassed" by some dude in a Marion Barber jersey that said "Punisher" on the back. I put harrassed in quotes because after the game, he apologized to me for it, and gave me credit for not whopping his ass.

Eagles fans >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Cowboys fans

Yeah, all of those guys were down home country boys. All in pressed and starched collared shirts with cowboy boots and Wranglers and hats.

Don't forget the guy who looked like he just got off a horse passing out leaning up against the wall.

Buttfloss ahahaha...those dudes were cool as hell.

IRVING – The group of 10 or so Eagles fans set up their tailgating scene smack dab in the middle of the Texas Stadium parking lot, loudly and obnoxiously trying to bait Cowboys fans into some good, old-fashioned, mean-spirited debate a couple hours before kickoff.

"They ain't fans," Tom Simms said in a disgusted tone. "You would not have a Cowboys gathering like this – having good fun – if we were in Philly. If this were Philly, you'd have all kinds of projectiles coming in here – hot dogs, beer, whatever."

Added Randall Moye: "I could see the parking lot being like this if they were playing the Lions or somebody. But it's the Eagles!"

In the 20 minutes or so that I hung out with this group of Philly fans, they only had two Cowboys fans engage them. They quickly dismissed one dude who was wearing a white No. 21 Cowboys jersey, calling him, "Crackman." Another Cowboys fan got rattled when an Eagles lover kept using a megaphone to help make his points despite standing only a foot away.

The thousands of other Cowboys fans seemed more interesting in sipping wine and eating cheese than putting the Philly invaders in their place.

Oh, well. Michael Wright, the man with the megaphone, says Cowboys fans are terrible trash talkers anyway. All they ever do is mention the five Super Bowl championships – which happens to be five more than the Eagles have – but has nothing to do with the 2008 teams.

"It's like Al Bundy talking about those four touchdowns at Polk High," Wright said, making a reference to the classic sitcom Married With Children. "And most of the time they only hold up four fingers when they say it."

With that, Wright and Co. broke into an "E-A-G-L-E-S!" chant without being challenged by any of their parking lot neighbors.

Written by a Dallas writer...

I'm disturbed that an Eagles fan is taking an Mayoresque approach to tailgating with a megaphone.
