After a difficult season it is nice to look back and remember the great year I had tailgating with my Michigan Wolverine family. Many times this year I have found myself back in Wisconsin talking to people more about, not the football game, but rather the great times at the tailgate.

First of all, thank you, Frank! Your awesome display of food week after week is incredeble. And I’m having trouble finding words to describe your generosity for several other things that you have done for me, my mom, and the rest of Sec. 30. You are truely one of a kind. Just wish I had more time to tailgate and hang out before the games. Hoping to see you several times this winter for a basketball game and a hockey game here in Wisconsin.

The Godfather! I pretty sure I narrowed down this year where they make Boonesfarm. It has to be somewhere in Benton Harbor, or more specifically, right in your back yard. Your, what seemed to be, unlimited supply of Boonesfarm was much appreciated. I hope I compensated things a little bit by bringing one or two here and there. I’m looking forward to your party next year for the ND/Michigan game.

Joe and Jeff, thank you for the post-game meal that usually kept me full all the way back to the cheeseland.

Gus and Mel, thanks for your participation in the tailgate this year. The steaks for the last tailgate were incredible.

I could go on and on, but I start to cut myself off now. Thank you to everybody who has made the Sec. 30 staff feel welcome for the last several years. You guys are awesome and a group of people that I’m thankful to know.

Happy Thanksgiving, stay strong, and GO BLUE!

I would like to qualify that “several” could come across as a slacking year on the tailgate scene. How about 9 of 12 games, or better yet make it 9 of 11 Division I games played! Congrats to Franky on his 1st “Bird House”.

I also have some thank yous to hand out:

+Thanks to Godfather for bringing Adam all the Boones Farm each week.
+Thanks to Adam and the rest of our section 40 friends for the best seats in the big house.
+Thanks to the Big House for a sweet “fly over” to end the year.
+Thanks to our Mascot who may be retiring, Mitch
+Thanks to “Basketball Season” beginning
+Thanks to KevinSection30 for weekly inspiration and motivation on the message board.
+Thanks to Dan and Steph and Old Frank for weekly political knowledge
+And finally as always, Thanks to the Lady in the High Heeled Shoes
HAPPY THANKSGIVING UMTAILGATE!
