We are proposing a 3 PM meet up at Walmart as this game will be a near sellout. It appears we will have a full crew going to the game plus some additional tickets bought before the season by Pete & BREP (4 total) going to the game with us already. Pete has pledged passage for his two in his vehicle, and Andrea & Eric have already agreed to take BREP's two extra in their car. If you plan on bringing extra people to the game, please try to coordinate how they will get to the game with the bearers of parking passes ahead of time. If anyone thinks they will have extra space in their car, please also let that be known.

Guten abend meine Rutgers freunden. It IS that time of the year that we celebrate the German culture of delicious, hearty food and accordion-led music! With that in mind, I have the following menu prepared: Beer Bratwurst, Sauerbraten, potato pancakes, cucumber salad, kraut and German potato salad (being brought by Eric & Andrea). I will also have potato rolls for the brats as well as buns if anyone wants to have a sauerbraten sandwich (marinated beef, kraut, mustard, pickle slices).
ReplyDeleteIf anyone wants to bring pretzels, that could get us started, otherwise any dessert items (apple strudel, linzer tarts are German fare if you wanted to stay with the theme) would be helpful. Obviously we need drinks and the 2 grills would be helpful; one for heating cooked items; the other for grilling the brats.
If I could also get a headcount from everyone, just so I know how many brats & rolls to bring. I am getting half trays of sauerbraten & potato pancakes from a German restaurant so that should be plenty.
As of now, I only need 1 ticket (for Evan). I believe Scott is bringing both Scott Jr. & Christian so he may need 2 extra.
So a headcount for each party in the next few days would be helpful, otherwise see everyone on Saturday...lederhosen not required but encouraged!
Hi-it will be me and Eric and as Chris mentioned we will bring a half tray of authentic German potato salad. Kudos to Larry for getting the ball rolling and addressing the need to coordinate ahead of time with parking if anyone is thinking of bringing an extra person.
ReplyDeleteIn addition to the usual Miller Lite and Coke/Diet Coke, I will definitely bring a dessert (will look for Linzer tarts but at least will bring something either German or fall-themed).
ReplyDeleteRight now it will be me, Sharon and Julie but there are rumors of a possible defection and if that leads to extra tickets I will offer them to Chris first and then Tinton Falls Scott.
The Coulters are not going to make it this week. Unfortunately we will be missing one of the non-12:00 games on the schedule. Have a good Octoberfest and we will see you guys for the Illinois game. If anybody needs tickets let me know.
ReplyDeleteJohn I believe Tinton Falls Scott still needs 2 tickets. If you could hold for him to buy. I will text him to confirm.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning RU tailgate crew from TF Scott.
ReplyDeleteI am still alive and rooting for RU but have had to many conflicts with baseball thus far.
I will be going Saturday and am only bringing my older son and only need one.
John - If you are willing, I will buy one from you if ok with the group even though I am low man on the totem pole?
Chris/Bill - Let me know what food or other items are needed that I can bring?
Thanks - Scott
I will definitely bring Apple Strudel so if someone else is thinking about dessert please bring something else!
ReplyDeleteSince we're short on carbs, I'll bring warm pretzels and dips. I'll bring Schaefers too, since it sounds German and I don't like German beer.
ReplyDeleteSee you with Shane at 3. No Kaitlyn this week.

Also, whoever besides Dave has a tent please remember to bring. forecast is all over the place for Saturday with the hurricane track changing every few hours.....
ReplyDeleteHey- we bought Petes 2 extra tickets in the upper deck and our 2 friends will join the tailgate. As Larry would say, we have also secured passage for them in our car and secured a seat in Petes car. Based on Larry's tally, are there still 2 tickets available in our group? Also, will anyone be meeting up with JC before the game to get his parking pass?
ReplyDeleteChris or Bill can I drop off tickets/parking pass with one of you guys? I work in Middletown, so would easy to stop by Tinton Falls. Also Scott had 1 ticket. Chris, does TF Scott need 2?
ReplyDeleteThat would be great John, thanks for offering. TF Scott only needs 1. I guess it can't hurt to drop of all of your tickets & pass and we can see if we can unload any unused. Since you know where Bill lives, would it be easier just to drop in his mailbox?
ReplyDeleteJohn, feel free to leave them in my mailbox; if you have them with you today, I think Kathy's home if you want to ring the bell. If not then tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteGood. Thanks I will drop at Bill's.
ReplyDeleteCheck in from TF Scott.
ReplyDeleteI am just seeing all this now - this group is like a finely tuned orchestra!
I can bring my canopy and will confirm with chefs Bill - Chris on additional items needed.
Thanks
It would probably be good if someone brought another dessert. I'm bringing a good amount of apple strudel but it will go quickly if there's nothing else.
ReplyDeleteBring more than enough for you and Larry then, Pete. But your right, Pete...maybe some desserts or just basic chips & stuff, Ungemah, if you're looking to bring stuff. Separately, I may have 2 more folks stopping by the tailgate, although they're parking in Green, so I figure they might not want to trek 5 miles back to hang w/us low-brows.
ReplyDeleteI HAVE JOHN'S 3 TICKETS AND PARKING, BTW; he dropped them w/me yesterday, and yes I'll bring the canopy.
Basil and Co. Yes all 4 are going. We have the extra Grill (+grill stuff) table chairs and I keep my tent in my office, if needed. We have the mini van too. I'll grab chips and some other http://www.entenmanns.com stuff. I'll have my small cooler of sodas.
ReplyDeleteBREP Checking in...bring a tray of Brownies and the mustard Chris needs, My neighbor Brian is bringing a case of Yuengling
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure, BTW, we have 2 extra JC tickets. Chris is using Kaitlyn's, and Scott Ungemah using one of JC's.
