Duke vs. Pitt, 9/21 12:30 kickoff - Social Discussion thread

Early game, let's hope they don't become a habit. On the bright side, the weather is looking beautiful once again. :happy-bouncyblue:
We are working on the menu, toying with the idea of 2 serve times. One would be brunch, and one would be lunch after the game.

I'd suggest breakfast from 900 or so until 1030, ya know, weekend hours, then lunch from 1100-1215. Lotsa folks are gone fairly quickly after the game, all the food has to be kept longer (at 80+ degrees) and it delays clean-up and departure. Plus, 330 or 400 is kinda late for lunch ;;) .

Looks like the low will be 60 Friday night and the high is forecast to be 84 with a 10% chance of rain on Saturday. Bring yer sunscreen and bottled water.

If anyone finds a folding chair in their collection that doesn't look familar, it may be mine. Plain blue, no armrests, no cup holders. It was up near the big grill with my red handtruck and coolers. Thanks, AW. :D

My interpretation of this photo (posted at TDD) is we will be wearing white helmets on Saturday:

Watched the Weather Channel. Even less encouraging with an 80% chance of rain. Bring yer rain shoes, waterproof coats and umbrellas.

Awesome day, except for the loss. The food was wonderful. Loved seeing great people. I did leave early, before the rain started. Harley is happy I'm home. Bud's at the lake finishing up the roof project. Kyle is working until about 10:00 tonight. Harley and I are chilling.

The Tailgate was awesome! A huge thank you to Tim and Chris for the great food. I ate six or seven pieces of sausage because they were tasty. I like the spicy ones. I'm already looking forward to next week's affair.

Indeed, I think we all did our best to tame the 'humungous sausage log'... we had a blast as usual and look forward to another great one next weekend (with a much better start time)...LGD!
