1-Sept FIU @ Duke. 7PM KO. Menu & Attendance.

Post by TNTDevil » August 25th, 2012, 2:14 pm

Well it's finally drinking...er...football season! Our opponent Florida International comes to Durham with hopes of avenging their loss to the Devils in South Florida. Kick-off is at 7pm. So there's plenty-o-time for tailgatin'!

Most of you know the drill but, for those "noobs" joining us, let me 'splain. This thread is where you can inform others of your intentions to attend and with how many guests. You can also post here if you would like to contribute a dish (or dishes) to the gastronomic orgy which is the TBCC tailgate.

I also have another request- Only post items you're bringing to share, please. If you're just bringing beverages for you and your party then there's no need to post that in this thread.

Also, we love that last year more folks were leaving behind the "soulless food"* and choosing to donate to the TBCC. That will enable us to keep improving the fare we offer. But, we need to be sure we're bringing/preparing enough food for all whom attend. So, if it's your intention to just donate $, please make your intentions (and the number in your party) known as soon as possible. If you are bringing food that needs "grill time" (i.e. to be reheated/cooked), make that information known in your post. (*"Soulless food" is defined as stuff that folks grab from the local supermarket deli in an effort to "bring something".)

For this tailgate we’re gonna’ try to serve the main courses around 5pm. Of course, they'll be stuff to eat all day long- as you can see below, we'll have Brunch stuff, lunch stuff and dinner stuff!

Weather: No worries for now! Looking A-OK, Partly cloudy with a Hi of 31C/89F! And, of course, we have a lovely night game! WOOHOO!

We're gonna' keep it flexible for the first game with plenty of grub: Brunch stuff, appetizers, sandwich fixings, sides, and desserts. As always I'll keep updating this post with more weather and attendance information as we move through the week.

I'll be there with my mom and my Christian.

I'm contributing $ to the cause.

Make extra caramelized onion and bacon dip. It is de-luscious!

I will be attending with my wife, daughter and grandson. We plan to arrive between 2 and 3. How many hours before kick-off do the general public parking lots open? In past seasons, I have read four hours before kick-off, but I could not find any info on GoDuke earlier today.

My food contribution will be a shipboard Sunday Brunch staple: Chili Macaroni.

EDIT: And beer.

My dad will be joining me, maybe my stepmom, so I will be 2+?

My menu contribution will be pulled pork bbq for dinner with cole slaw. I'll be serving up a few racks of ribs during the day as appetizer offerings, possibly some wings as well.

I don't know what time the lots will be filling up, but I'm planning on being there in time to to have had the pork on the grill for 7-8 hours.

We will be Cheermom +2 (cheerdad and cheerdaughter who is now White Squad cheer coach with no girls until after tryouts on Sept. 2). We will bring a veggie platter and fruit salad.

Also, I am setting up a table next to our tent on the grass side with information about Blair Holliday and a donation box for those who want to contribute to the Blair Holliday Recovery Trust.

The Old Prof and I will be in the vicinity before game time and plan to stop by to say hi and get and give hugs. Since we won't really be dining, you shouldn't put us in the head count. We sure are looking forward to catching up with everybody, though.
Go Duke!!!!
Love, Ima

:text-worthless:

:(( that I could not attend due to call responsibilities. Hopefully the family/friends that attended in my absence were hospitable and vocal.
