Happy Halloween everybody!

Our bowl-eligible, nationally-ranked Duke Blue Devils return home this Saturday to battle the "headless" University of Miami on All Hallow's Eve and--BOY-HOWDY--does this look to be shaping-up as one fine-ass game day! The weather looks to be absolutely perfect (Sharknado probability= nil) and the TBCC is gonna do our best to make sure the tailgate is as well.

Since it's "The U" coming to town, we thought it best to bust out some quality eats that (vaguely) represent both schools...therefore we're gonna do Surf & Turf! Grilled Boneless Rib-eyes steaks and Jumbo Shrimps (yes, deliciously oxymoronic).

Please, if you plan to attend, be sure to weigh-in early so that we can plan appropriately.

TBCC: (+9)
Appetizers- ABTs, Wings, Steamed Mussels, Costcos and delicious Lumpia (courtesy of Mrs. BG);
Main courses- Grilled Rib-eyes steaks (some Spice-rubbed, some S&P), Grilled Shrimps, Six Pepper Pasta w/smoked chicken;

Desserts: Fruit cobbler(s); Spiced Pumpkin Cheesecake(s); Assorted cookies;
Beverages: Water, Iced Tea, SBMs, Beers

LawgradS- Sweet, sweet kay$h;

Bob Green (+3)- Lumpia and stacks of US Currency;

GO DUKE!

Bob Green +3 (Flora plus her sister Josie and husband Doug). We will be bringing lumpia and $ for the tip jar and plan to arrive approximately 3 to 3:30 pm.

CathyCA + Jon the Methodist + MyMama = 3

We will bring $20 bills. MyMama might want a lap dance in exchange for hers.

Ozzie +1. Not sure what we'll be bringing, other than $, but I'm sure we'll come up with something.

And, as I emailed to our members, the Iron Dukes team will be in our parking lot this Saturday, looking for the best tailgate.

Don’t forget we are looking for our next tailgate winner. The Iron Dukes team will still be searching for the best tailgate in the Card Gym Parking Lot. Make sure you have your 2015-16 Iron Dukes decal displayed.

Pasta salad. We're bringing pasta salad.

I'll be there. Kyle wants to come but it will depend on his work load for school. I'll let you know as soon as I can. Will bring $$.

Gadzooks +3 with cash.

Gumbo boys and girls. Bad-ass gumbo.

To be clear, the gumbo will not be made of boys and girls, it will be consumed by boys and girls (and men and women). It will be made of traditional gumbo stuff - chicken, andouille sausage, etc.

Dpslaw + 1 (Tom). We'll feed the tip jar appropriately. Unfortunately, I failed to order footlong buns this week.

Cheermom +7. Salad, stuffed grape leaves, homemade fudge, and $$

Crazier than thou plus 3 (Debbie, Kaitlyn, Andrew) Will feed the jar, and might bring an appetizer--will send an update if we come up with something.

We are also bringing a bag of candy for whatever hobgoblins appear.

We are bringing a big bag (94 small candy bars) too.

CowboyDevil; Christian + 4; my brother + 3. I will have my grill and stuff. I will prepare my TrueBlue chicken, and the Golden Taters.

August West, party of one. Beers to sample, share, and trade. Water for DUMB and dead patriots for the jar. Should be there around 4:30. AW.
