Dallas tailgate 10/8

[dis12]

I'm starting to think we all need name tags or something. Maybe a secret handshake. I've probably met all kinds of board people, and I don't remember all of them. Hell, sometimes I can't even remember my own kids' names.

now I know what to do with my 81 jersey (shame on me for not torching it on Sunday). 

btw Dad, you can call me Son

Steve - what happened to the Mahe jersey?

I saw Jef's pics and saw you rockin the Dawk. Did you retire the #34?

So for real I want to thank IGY and his boys for hooking us up with a ridiculous spread at their tailgate. SunMo for giving me a lot of his beer. That random girl for giving me way too many jello shots. Phattymatt for driving me around. Susq, Lil Susq, 61 and 64 for lying and saying that they enjoy reading my nonsense. MURP for being drunk ass drunk and giving me more hugs and having more 'songs' dedicated to me over 3 hours than I've had over my entire life. And of course Beermonkey, T, Sean, Die-Hard, Ray, Rome and anyone else who was manning the grill/cooler/microphone at Beermonkey's tailgate. It was a strangely warm welcome.

I was good to meet you, Matt & his hot girlfriend. I apologize if I came off as a drunken retard at the end, but it was hard to moderate with all the cups & shots being passed around.

That was Die-Hard's & his friend George's tailgate. I'm merely one of their groupies. That last hour rocked hard.

HA! Don't try to act like that's not how you always are!    SOME of us know better than the newbies to the tailgating crew.

When I'm not drunk, I act like I have only a mild case of Down's. I want them to know that there is a better me out there.

The first thing you did when we met is give me a big sloppy kiss on the forehead.  I may have gotten a chubby.

And I feel a little better now knowing that that hour before game time seems to be missing from most people's memories.  I was holding pretty strong until then.

[phattymatty]

and i don't think there's any reason to apologize for being hammered.

If anything people should apologize for being sober. Sobriety is for the weak.

tell it to the judge

anyone who drops their cell phone in their own beer has serious problems.

#34 is still alive (it keeps hangin on).  it will also be travelin to N'orleans.

Damn.....I must have got their too early (noon) and missed all the fun. From the few I met, you all seemed kinda sober and level headed. Gentlemanly like. Hell, I thought I was at the Four Seasons with all the hospitality...Cool crew...Did you pop some greenies after I left? I have to stick around a little longer next time and leave the degenerates I tailgate with in the Jetro on their own.

[rjs246]

No greenies that I saw. The awesome just kicked in after I just showed up. You see, that's when the real magic happens. And by magic I mean drunk.

[SunMo]

thanks to me and my cooler. 

i learned when RJS says, "I'll be there by 8 with my backpack cooler invention."  it really means, "I'll roll in around 11:30 and not have much more than a clever shirt."
