Ok folks time to get er goin.....

Check in if you would if you and yours plan on hitting the FINE MESS tailgate this friday. Will be set up by 330pm for a 3 hr shin dig. Weather looks decent enough in the 70's with sun and maybe some passing showers.

Let me know here if you plan to go with how many you think in your group will be joining in. Once again for those who don't have a pass feel free to just come and don't worry about food as you can drop us some $ and we'll feed your bellies. Location is the likely the northeast corner of the FINE lot. I say likely as with a friday game and the students now parking there there may not be any free spots there so if thats the case I'm going to set up in the far back of the lot down by the trees, so look for us there.

Chow for this friday from my grill will be beer basted brats, coneys, hot dogs, sausage with peppers and onions along with the mrs. speciality pasta dish "heart attack on a plate" (which is basically a pink sauced pasta, cheesy, sausage concotion of pure joy). Jeremy usually fires up some burgers and Tomcat sometimes cremates something on his grill too (luv ya Tomcat :) ). I'll have a cooler of beer, soda and water but not enough for the whole crew so everyone should consider bringing in their favorite libations. If you're eating only please kick in $5, eating and drinking $10. Thanks.

So lets get it going folks and everyone chime in for the big pregame gathering. Their very focused up there I hear, and lets hope that actually means something.

Glad to have the master back at the helm, I think we made it through Stony Brook OK but its great to have ya back.

One thing to keep in mind is that with this being a Friday game not sure if SU is going to give us a problem if we try to set up around 3-3:30. Also agree that it maybe in our best interest to hit the trees in the back if the upper corner is full. (Will PM you some addtl info)

Based on the success of the pulled pork for Stony Brook I am looking into perhaps doing something with a whole Turkey I picked up last week. If that a no go I should have the normal spread of dogs, burgers, and a couple of other surprises.

I echo CR's thoughts about brining your own beverages as it can be difficult to bring enough variety and volume for everyone.
 
Still can't believe they're letting students park in that lot. Really a turnoff. SU pretends it's a big-time program but does just about everything in a small-time way.
 
Me + 3 guests from NJ...will be there by 4...but hoping earlier. If the weather is good on Friday I have some trim paint work to do at the camp and the lady of the house surely will be directing me on other tasks to slow my escape.

Count on me to provide some beer, tailgate supplies like napkins, condiments, and plasticware from my camp and the NJ guests will grease the palm of the chef.
 
In for 2, maybe 4.

Bringing Labatt's Blue and at least one other beer "varietal," probably Saranac or Sierra Nevada if I can find it.
 
BTW, this is our Annual Syracusefan.com tailgate redux.

Anyone who reads this and has extra tickets to sell..let me know. We have buyers.
 
Mark, I have two tickets to sell (not mine).

call me...when you can.

I'm getting the sense that the crowd might be pretty good on Friday...here is hoping the Yanks can close out tonight.

As someone who has never been to a tailgating event, how do these work? I did see the fee per guest so I presume every here knows who you are in person? (Otherwise, how would they find you from every other tail-gaters).

Do people usually just stop by at any tailgating group and pitch in a few bucks for food?

Unfortunately, I've never taken part in this luxury of tailgating while I was a student at Cuse. I do plan on heading up for Friday and I'd love to be able to participate if I arrived on time.
 
in for 2-3. will bring some pumpkin ales and a food item

In for 2, maybe 2/3 more. We'll bring beer/water and some lighter stuff to grill.

yep our FINE MESS group has been doing this for years so most of us know each other and we usually have our own spot. Except this year as I noted but we'll be in that lot if not in front then down in back by the trees. If you're on this board you are part of the crew and welcomed aboard anytime you can make it. Not sure if you can just jump in with any other group of tailgaters but you can with us. Just ask for the FINE mess gang and hopefully someone can direct you right to us and you can drop one of us some $ if you're partaking.

Just show up. Head to the NE corner of the Fine Lot. Find the biggest tailgate in the area. That would be us. Ask who Cuseregular is, pay him and you are in.

Yup, also this game our leader TexanMark will be in town so just ask for him and he will introduce you to the whole group. We are usually the biggest tailgate and will have multiple canopies/grills etc set up. Cuseregular is our regular grill man with myself playing wing man. You will find us.
 
In for 3 maybe 5. Time is TBD due to kids practice but will hopefully be known tonight what arrangements I make.
