| The calm before the storm |

| Next week I hide the mic |
An afternoon of serene tailgating turned crazy with bad karaoke and gale force winds as Piscataway got dumped on with 1.5“ of rain starting about 40 minutes before kickoffs. Luckily, the BREPNation tailgate crew tailgate escaped unharmed.

| All hail the brave tent people |
The adventurous LaBue clan try to beat the weather into the
stadium. But ended up having to take refuge in the Rodkin center, and several
of us waiting it out under Bill’s tent for 20 minutes of intense wind, keyed by
the tent hold down efforts of cornerman JC and the returning RU prodigal son Shane. He was still able to get me a beer to calm my
nerves during the fracas. You still got
it. BRES!

| More ribs than I ever cooked before |
friends Gary & Jen, Pat & Dana, Logan & Peter, Will & Erin, and joining us all year in the black lot, Sam & Beth. Everyone did a great job contributing to the tailgater, with a great variety and spread of food. Thanks to all for your efforts!!!

| Still my hero, despite the whole Maryland thing |
Oh, and Rutgers won 45-17 behind 4 Athan K
touchdowns. The defense wasn’t great again, but QB1 is playing great.
I turn this week’s tailgate preparation in to the capable hands
of Bill and Dana as they are considering a seafood themed approach…….
Al has also given Dave one of our seats for next week so he’s got his two
now with Tom also out.

To offset the incoming Seafood Extravaganza, I'm prepping to make some "artisan" Grilled Cheese sandwiches.
ReplyDeleteOh and as far as these go:
"Plates, Papers towels, utensils, and garbage bags:" I have enough stockpiled for the rest of the season from my initial stash and the leftovers brought every week (really I have a whole separate storage box filled with stuff) so no need to worry about this column.
