NCST Tailgate Recap
NC State Tailgate Wrap-Up: My take on the tailgate:
Overall: Well the weather didn’t really
cooperate, it was windy and we got a little wet, but other than that it was
another fine tailgate. The 3:30 starts look to be about done for us, and I
imagine the Wake game is going to be a nooner the way we have been playing.
That is not good news for D-7, but as always we shall overcome. Once again the
breakfast food was a hit with J at the grill. Good work J (but if you think that
qualifies you for back to back MVT’s forget about it). Tailgate Highlights: I know this is a little childish of me,
but I think the tailgate highlight was watching the two tents next to the soccer
field blow over the 8 foot high chain link fence. For some reason destruction
has always been an attention getter for me. Some other highlights were the flip
cup game. I know, how can something we do every week be a highlight, well this
flip cup game had meaning. It wasn’t just a flip cup game, it was a flip cup
game to stick it to the man! Which SEGUE’S us into our lowlights section.
Tailgate Lowlights: Atleast the cops were nice enough to
give us a heads up. But what is with the no drinking games allowed? Let see,
you can do all the beer bongs you want (well I can’t but others can), you can do
the artic slide or whatever you call the shots through the blocks of ice, you
can drink your face off, but you can’t drink and then flip a cup over? I think
our dear old Alma Mater has officially lost it. So basically the message they
are sending is you can drink all you want, but you can’t form teams and try to
have fun doing it. This is disgusting, I would be even more angry if I actually
contributed money to the University (I’ll get around too it eventually relax
Mote). Moral of the story there is an evil force somewhere out there trying to
bring down D-7. They must be located and neutralized. Get a letter ready Terp
Club Member Bixler! Tailgate MVT: Well once again J had a strong showing hauling the grill around and making the breakfast sandwiches, but he also forgot the legs to the beer pong table so despite all his effort he eliminated himself from competition before 9:31 am. So this weeks MVT award goes to Mary and Shannon who bravely drove back to J’s sacrificing precious tailgating time in order for us to play drinking games. Shannon also made rice crispy treats in the shape of football helmets. The honorable MVT award goes to anyone who served look out for the flip cup games (I would have helped, but no one ever knocked me off the table). Though there was some “CODE RED!!!” confusion, overall the lookouts role in non-violent drinking game protest was an effort that would have made Gandhi himself proud. Thanks for helping! |
