Rutgers Tailgate - E1-A - THANK YOU!!

THANK YOU!

A gigantic thank you to all who came out, joined in the pregame fun, contributed labor, dollars, food, and otherwise mingled at the tailgate. I don't have the time to throw a party that big every week, but I'll do my best to host a future tailgate or two that size later in the year. Was terrific meeting as many of you as I did, and you're always welcome back.


Update with Summary Bullets

  • WHO - Husky that frequent UWDP and want to eat and drink before a game. Rutgers fans too.
  • WHAT - UWDP Tailgate! Food and drink provided (but feel free to BYO) - $10 contributions much appreciated
  • WHERE - E1-A, southeast corner of Montlake lot. Photos for reference pending due to technical difficulties
  • WHEN - 8:00 AM to 10:15AM (we want to leave plenty of time to tear-down and walk to the stadium for pregame)
  • WHY - Because it's the return of Husky football!
  • HOW - Drive, walk, bus, rail, horse, rickshaw... I don't care, just get there!

Hello Dawg Fans!

It's game week! That means it's time to get properly prepared. No better way to get prepared for kick-off than tailgating game day morning ! We usually only do one or two big tailgates a year, so I can't be the official tailgate sponsor for UWDP all season. But Rutgers just happens to be this year's big bash. My in-laws will be in town for it. Some of my coworkers will be swinging by. Will likely even have a few other friends that make a cameo appearance. It will be good times.

I will edit this post later this week (assuming I have the privilege?) with an official start time, and also with photos of key items to help your navigation. Worst case, please keep an eye on the comments section and I can post them there. I have a flagpole and also a custom Weber Q grill cover that is unmistakable -- they will be your cue. I'll be at the south end of E1. As I said in the comments on a previous post about tailgating, all are welcome... including Rutgers fans and "the weirds"... that includes the weirds of both teams. We are a friendly, welcoming bunch.

One request -- if you know for certain you will be coming, please reply in the comment section / RSVP so I can get at least a ballpark idea about headcount. I'm using the headcount to inform food and beverage purchase (to limit what others have to bring), so also please be willing to chip in to the cost of sponsoring a big shindig.

Go Dawgs!
