Greetings everyone! Hope everybody that attended the fantastic tailgate and game last Saturday has dried-out and is ready for some more football and food this coming Saturday? For those of you who stayed home last week...good call. The weather sure put the wade in Wallace Wade. As of right now, it l...

Latest forecast from Greg Fishel is less rain on Saturday than originally expected. The last game I almost didn't go to because of forecast rain was the Clemson game in 1989, where coach Spurrier said we had no business being on the field with them. Randy Cuthbert thought differently and literally ...

Jim and Marie (2) will be attending for the first time. We are friends of Cheermom. We won't be bringing a dish but will be contributing generously. Looking forward to it. Right on! Friends with Cheermom, eh? Well...we'll overlook that for now and let you guys hang-out. :)) Welcome! Looking forward!

FINALLY! FOOTBALL! Ahhh yes. Duke Football! New QB. "New" stadium. New season. And, we're already 1-0 with an impressive Road win @ Tulane! So...a good ol' football game on a lovely September evening deserves a good, solid tailgate. And solid is what we're gonna deliver... Most of you know the drill...

Well, Duke's first ever Thursday night showcase is in the rear-view mirror and we move forward to the season finale against Wake Forest. Wake Forest, who, amazingly, did what we couldn't- and beat the Hokies. Therefore, I don't think this game is quite the "cupcake" we once imagined. And, while it's...

Well that VT loss sucked...no two ways about it but, hopefully we exercised every gremlin in our camp and will be ready to play for UNC. Okay, enough of my insightful sports-related prose, let's get on to THE BIG SHEWWWW! We've landed a 50 lb Ram to leisurely smoke the day of the...wait...I'm gettin...

So, we're all aware of the situation with the Carolina game, no need to rehash that here. What we do need to know, and very soon, is everyone's intentions for this game and the pre-game. Clearly, in the absence of a rapid reassessment by the Duke administration, the idea of a proper tailgate is well...

Happy POLY-birthday you smelly hippie!

Greetings friends and fans of our 8-1, Coastal Division leading, Duke Blue Devil Football team! It's finally time for yet another spectacular football Saturday at Wallace Wade Stadium and environs and, another, well... Brunchgate! Unfortunately, due to the 8PM tip-off of the Men's basketball game we...

Welcome Duke Fans to BRUNCHGATE 2.0! . Yep, another 12:30 kick-off means we're coming at you with another brunch-style tailgate. I know that the early kick-off, at least this week, suits some of our member's needs and it should be an absolutely gorgeous day! So let's run with it (and ignore the simi...

Alrighty-then...let's keep this party rolling! This week we've got Tulane and an early kick-off so that of course means... BRUNCHGATE! I feel confident that #Dukegang will keep the train moving and roll over Tulane so it's up the the TBCC to roll over your pregame hunger. As you're posting your atte...

Apologies to all to have to start this way but...<soapbox> Funny thing the written word, you think you've made a solid, factual case. Succinct and focused. And your words just whiz right past your target audience's brains. Let's give it another go: It appears we need to clarify a few things w/r/t th...

Well, here we are again, most of August is in the rear-view mirror so that must mean it's time, once again, for some Duke Tailgating...wait...I mean football! Yeah, football is what I meant! FOOTBALL! Ahhh yes. Duke Football. Coastal Division Champions! Hell, we even have expectations to live-up to ...

The "Ewe" @ "Dew". I like that... Errherm, better now. Like lambs to the slaughter (see what I did there Chris?), it will be "The Ewes" into the Devils' (secret, underground, liquid-hot magma-filled) lair. Ok...maybe not so good right this moment... Anyhoo, the Hurricanes blow into Durham and, becau...

Best wishes for a speedy recovery for your loved ones whom you know are alive and, mostly, well. I'll keep the relatives whom are incommunicado, for now, in my thoughts.

Speedy recovery to the entire region...JEEBUS that storm was huge.

Well, well, well, look who's back on the schedule! And coming into Wallace Wade at that! This should be a real treat. A surging, healthy Duke hosting a broken, beaten State. I'm sure, just like a wounded animal, they'll be dangerous but, this Duke team is different and, I no longer fear any of the r...

Once again we welcome the Midshipmen of Navy back to the inviting confines of Wallace Wade Stadium for a 12:30 kick-off. For those of you that go way back, you'll recall that we played Navy for the second get-together of the original "Brunchgate" crew! Only difference this time, it won't be hotter t...

Okey-dokey then...provided Duke hasn't scored all it's points for the season, we should have another shoot-out this weekend when we welcome Troy to Durham. I feel confident however, that Duke shall prevail! A win and we're half-way to Bowl eligibility. The weather: It looks like it should be a perfe...

Duke welcomes ACC rookies Pitt into the confines of Wallace Wade. Hopefully, we send them home with an 0-2 ACC record. In the meantime, it looks like we have a... BRUNCHGATE! That' right, an honest-to-goodness 12:30 PM game warrants a little Brunch action. As usual, we'll strap-on the serious feedba...

That day for which I've waited almost 14 years is almost upon us. I'm very excited about being present for this historic event. Unfortunately, we don't have a great deal of information with which to work at this time (weather, parking situation, etc.) but, we'll update the OP as we learn more. We wi...
