Wheels up

Looks like the team just landed a little while ago: Flight Aware

In Roanoke. Hopefully the bus driver doesn't get confused and takes them to Blacksburg.

 

[SU2NASA]

In Lynchburg. Their God can’t save them now.

Hotel right next to a great craft beer store. Stocked up and starting to simmer in the hotel. Rumor has it our Fine Mess South tailgate may crest 100 tomorrow!

Is the beer in cans?

Stopped at Woodruff’s Store & Cafe on the way to Lynchburg. ( google it, cool story). Great sandwich and pecan pie and met the 103 year old owner! Arrived at the hotel around 5: 30 and put our tailgate drinks in the fridge. Heading out on the town to grab a bite with some friends and fellow

This was the highlight of the day, and outside of tomorrow‘s tailgate and game will be one of the memories I take from this trip. Awesome place!!! The article below was from the Wall Street Journal earlier this year. They are open tomorrow from 10-4 pm. Stop by before the tailgate for a sandwich and a slice of pie. We are going back, as we ordered 3 pies for Thanksgiving. You will not be disappointed.

American Pies: Recipes From a Landmark Cafe

Down a Virginia country road, a small cafe slings history by the slice. Beyond the superb blueberry crumble and lemon meringue, the spot’s centenarian matriarch keeps customers coming back.

I'm just dying right now. My buddy and I had tickets on the 5th row of the 50 yard line and a hotel within walking distance of the stadium, but... I gut-wrenchingly had to cancel our trip to Liberty due to a shoulder surgery recovery being longer than anticipated.

Can someone please make fun of Jerry Falwell on my behalf?

When did you have surgery?

 

[Acesn8s]

Guy at hotel desk said hotel booked solid for this game first time he has seen this many people for a liberty game, I asked how many Syracuse fans he said about a dozen in this hotel.

When did you have surgery?

Monday of last week.

 

[Shark58]

to the Orange Lynchburg wave...

Monday of last week.

Ooh. Probably still pretty painful. Probably wouldn't have been a good idea to be in a crowd of people that would bump into you. That timing sucks.

Yeah it was rotator cuff surgery and the wildcard is whether my labrum was torn which they can't determine until they actually open you up. If it wasn't, then that would mean 1-2 weeks in a sling and I would be able to do the trip, but it was torn so that means 4 weeks instead. It's OK, I will recover from this first world problem... eventually.

Its all good Care. Tommy already has won the game of life because of his parents. The games are just a bonus!

When I was doing outpatient therapy, we would tell patients to wear their sling in public for a little while after the surgeon told them they weren't required to anymore. Labrum tear or not, most people are still in quite a bit of pain after 2 weeks and the sling tells people to try not to bump into you. That's a lot harder to prevent in the stands at a football game.

Nice old charm southern hotel
Beautiful area worth the trip without the game!
Nice people . Kids say there locked in

 

[TexanMark]

After a delay (minor water issue at the camp)...made it to Roanoke at 10pm. Laying low...no Cuse fans at our hotel but we are an hour from Lynchburg

Hofmanns on ice

 

[OburgCuse]

Still going strong at Waterdog...zero Cuse presence at the bar here that I’ve seen besides me...but great craft beer selection

 

[RoofBeam]

A Heidegger reference?...If so, I am impressed!

In Lynchburg. Their God can’t save them now.

 

[HtownOrange]

Wish I was there. Keep the reports coming. Trying to focus on a few things before the game but, as usual, not doing a good job of it.

 

[Offthedome]

Game Day! Let's Goooooooooo!

 

[JRHEETER]

Y’all are killing me! Wish I could have been there so bad!
