They paved paradise and put up a sidewalk.

Good for safety. Bad for tailgating.

I think the plan is to move over next to Mr. Lloyd and his crew this year, so, if that's the case shouldn't effect us much.

The plan was to stay in the same spot where we tailgated the Spring Game, so this shouldn't effect us much. Had we stayed in the old spot, it'd suck.

We'd talked about moving down with Stevie Ray's dad but we've got so much more room in that spot we were at for the Spring Game.

Don't know if this has been mentioned before, but there's a new tent the school purchased for AWAY GAME tailgating. It will make it's debut at the William&Mary game. $30 a person for the meal is a bit steep, though.

The picture on there is pretty small, and I can't find a larger one anywhere. The best place to see the tent is in the National Liberty Journal.

For $30 a meal, that must be more for alumni than current students; I wish they also had a bargin meal tent for the students. :tailgate
Does the $30 also include a ticket to the game? If so, that's not a bad price at all.

The article indicates a ticket is included.

wondering if this place is where they bought it-

http://www.sunbeltinflatables.com/Tent.html

if so, its approx 26' diameter. Pretty good size- and they could make us one for FF.com ; only 1300 bucks.

SMOOTHIE, put that on the list.

$30 for a game and a meal isn't a bad deal at all--now if only they would put $15 of that towards gas or so and we'd be in business!

The $30 does include your ticket...now if you just want to eat there at the tent that will only cost you $12....Just another great move by our athletic department...W&M and is the most expensive ticket for the whole year....most seats are $23 and you can get GA End Zone tickets for $15.....

Has anyone received their season tickets in the mail yet? I have not gotten mine. I may have to call up there soon. Looking forward to tailgating with you guys again! I may have MRS SCAR in tow for a couple of games but we will see. I know I will have to beg her to make some cookies at least for the 1st tailgate. Are we starting our list of things to bring yet?

Scar, I haven't gotten mine yet either. I thought I heard they were mailing them out around August 15th, but I could be wrong.

The pictures don't do it justice. There's absolutely no room for tailgating now on that strip, period. Half of our spot from the spring game is gone too.

We may be moving down by Stevie Ray's dad.
