Doing homework?
Watching another college football game in person?
Watching a high school football game?
Watching college football on TV?
Watching college basketball?
Going to a play?
Fishing/Hunting?
Chores around the house/apartment/dorm?
Hot date with your wife/girlfriend who hasn't seen you for 10 Saturdays?

I'll be on Long Island, about 4 miles from Stony Brook, visiting some friends. Talk about your poorly timed road trips!
Let me know if you have any cool sabotage ideas that I can covertly perform while I am there.

Friday, I'll be at the LU basketball game against Randolf. How has no-one posted this yet? Oh well.

Saturday, I'll be watching Duke beat UVA for the fourth consecutive year! Or I might go play golf if it's nice

Remember the episode of "Coach" when Luther accepted free wings for the Orlando Breakers from a bar in Buffalo? The Breakers were playing the Bills that week. The entire Breakers' team wound up with food poisoning. Just a thought. I guess the logistics don't apply...

Ooo. Good idea. I guess they will be out of town on Saturday, but I could leave a few plates of wings by the football stadium and hope the team eats them on Thursday or Friday, right?

Will be watching UVA beat Duke and checking out what the basketball team is up to. Its a shame I had to miss the VMI game due to a prior engagement. I just experienced my first game vs Presbryterian the week before. I was very impressed and I can't wait to go again. #BeatStonyBrook

A few years back, the Rice marching band dropped fertilizer on the field at UH during their halftime marching routine which within a couple of weeks left a VERY visible 'RICE" across the field for the remainder of the season.

The MOB (Marching Owl band) sits alongside the Stanford band as the most creative and entertaining bands in the land. I never miss halftime whenever Rice is on the field. Their tribute to A&M leaving was a HUGE hit in Austin as you might suspect.

I'll be clearing up my honey-do list hoping I can gain enough favor in her eyes for me to take a trip to Lynchburg in 2 weeks (hopefully) and then Statesboro, GA in 3 weeks (hopefully).

Sly, I almost said "one of my alma maters," but I didn't want to seem like I was putting on airs.
