Reunited

​An otherwise subdued afternoon at Fraser's Pub turned raucous as the UMTailgate.com crew arrived in droves to eat, drink, and reminisce. The winter meetings were held, and after inebriated deliberation, the 2007 themes were decided. A brief recap follows... 

  • Captain Michigan told Frank (The Webmaster) to "kiss his ass"

  • Shep will organize the first annual UMTailgate.com golf outing. It will be held in Coldwater, Michigan. Details to follow.

  • Dennis "The Godfather" Moore failed to bring his mug to a UMTailgate.com event for the first time in history.

  • Captain Michigan requested that Lisa choke on her nacho so that he may administer mouth-to-mouth.

  • Captain Michigan will turn 60 at this year's Ohio State game.

  • Gar from Garsworld has issued an RV challenge for the @ Illinois tailgate and game.

Themes will be as follows:

  • 9/1 Appalachian State: The Luau

  • 9/8 Oregon : Flip the Bird - A tailgate filled with middle fingers and culinary delights from the world of poultry. Fried turkeys may be a possibility.

  • 9/15 Notre Dame : Irish Fayre - Corned beef, cabbage, Sheppard's Pie, and the like

  • 9/22 Penn State : The UMTailgate.com Carnival - Elephant ears, corn dogs, popcorn, dogs, nachos, cheesesteaks, and maybe a couple of midgets
