    This can be a blessing in disguise later if you go on a date one day. Shit like this in my life some how almost always comes back good. What I mean is it could be a great ice breaker in a date to laugh about this Mr b's actions. And plus if you can compose yourself in what is not a perfect scenario and she noticed it that can be a plus for you in her eyes. So honestly as bad as it was shit just might be a blesing in disguise. I do think you should go to her next set alone and talk more with her and get that date. Sooner the better especially alone shows your very interested in her.

    Since BobJr continues to not want to sticky this...

    I'm bumping with a question for all the manly tailgating men in HK and abroad...which is maybe 3 or 4 of you softies...

    What is your tailgate MUST HAVE? (Minus Beer, that's a given)

    Well...

    With a big game in Happy Valley this weekend against the Buckeyes ( ryty32 ) , I am planning on tailgating where the students usually tailgate for some real rowdy pre-game celebrations. This is a spot I've been dying to tailgate for my 3 years here and this was the game I had circled for that moment. Usually I am tailgating with my roommates family, but this time, despite is "you're a pussy for not tailgating with my family" remarks, I've got it all planned out.

    Right now, the menu includes:
    - My Homemade Pulled Pork : Likely with Sweet Baby Ray's Sweet & Spicy and Using Yuengling Lager as the Beer to Cook it in.
    - Brauts, Dogs, Burgers : Come on...it's a given.
    - Hot Wing Dip : Supposedly my roommates girlfriends roommate...let it set in...makes a pretty good dip. We'll see.
    - Mixed Nuts : We're playing the Buckeyes...come on now!

    THE MAIN COURSE
    Cooler full of beer, likely to include Yuengling Lager, Natty Light (for the college bros), Shock Top Pumpkin Wheat, and Woodchuck Hard Cider for the women.

    I like to mix it up as far as drinking goes, I usually have set drinks for the playoffs though, or big games. We usually like to make Yucca...
    Yucca ingredients:
    1 gallon container
    6 lemons
    6 limes
    1/2 gallon of tequila
    Ice
    3/4 cup of granulated sugar

    Shake it up for 20 minutes then drink until you get a brain freeze and pass it on. Seeing as how I am large and in charge, I have a 2 gallon Gatorade container, so we just double the recipe. Tastes like lemonade, borderline on margarita, all tequila.

    As for food, I am not much for staying out there all pregame anymore, so I bring chips, dips, sandwiches, and some other random stuff. But once they open the stadium up, I head inside and go to the bar to watch some NFL RedZone, where they also have some awesome food if I want to partake in that.

    Biggest thing a tailgate needs, for me anyway, is a comfortable camping chair and my iPod dock

    Seeing as I've never tailgated with the students before (shame on me) I'm not quite sure on what to expect as far as food goes. So fuck it. Kickoff is at 5:30, we're going to be there all day. It may be a waste on dogs, burgers, brauts...but whatever.

    The iPod mention, saved my day. There will also be mass amounts of flip cup and other drinking games. Plus Ladderball and tossing the pigskin.

    Bro, as fun as ladderball is, I would recommend something that isn't going to bounce away or hit someone hard... If you can, go with cornhole/bags/whatever you call it:
    most of my tailgating these days is at Niners games, but pretty much every tailgate is different and has different aspects to it that make it great. In college, I only tailgated for a couple years cuz I was playing at the start of my time there, so I am no expert by any means, just my personal opinion.

    Oh we've done corn hole at many a tailgate before...I just don't have it and don't see justifying buying a set for one tailgate.

    are you telling me you would never use this again? 4th of July parties...regular Saturday parties...summer pool parties...hell, you could setup a tournament over labor day weekend. this beautiful piece is mine:
    and I don't use her regularly, but I always have that option...I also have this too --> [​IMG] so i know how fun each are, and if you can't afford it or can't justify buying cornhole, I get it.

    So, I will make this offer to you Cimmy24, I will get it for you if you win the HK Bowl this season, with BobJr as my witness, sound fair?

    BACON WRAPPED HOT DOGS-first get a good dog like nathans, then go to a bakery and get fresh torpedo rolls and cut a pocket in them. Split the dog down the middle and stuff it with peperjack then wrap the bacon around the dog and stick a tooth pick in it to hold bacon in place. Grill the dog not too much heat. Kraut, good mustard, fire grilled peppers if you can take it. This one has never let me down. Minimal clean up and you can use your other hand for an ice cold beer.

    Bags, Beer Pong, football to throw around.

    I like to mix it up. Drink some beer, drink some Rum and Coke maybe something else but usually just beer and rum mix.

    Gotta get some bbq chicken on that grill with the dogs and brats.

    Oh, and this.

    We'll give the benefit of the doubt to my man Cole Copeland that he does not know I am a Penn State student and that normally, I'd find every way possible to make him feel unwanted...not only in HK, but in life. I'm a verbal assassin and if you push me enough, I show up at your front door looking like the reaper. Ask BobJr

    Beer... naturally
    Brats
    Burgers
    and some sort of food that represents the opposing team... If we're playing the Dolphins, fish of course, if we're playing the Seahawks or Falcons, some type of bird would be on the menu
