working on that as we speak.

Excellent. This is a proper example of how to give back to the community. ;)

The group I've been tailgating with lately hasn't been showing up until 10 or 10:30, and I don't think that's changing this week, so to take full advantage of the home playoff game (can't take these things for granted), I'm going to try showing up around 9 to hangout with the CP gang, then might wander around later.

I'll bring chips or some sort of snack to share, and maybe some beer.

What beer is on tap?

did you hear someone yell your name while you were waiting at the gate?

Our usual grill master will not be going. He's got obligations at church that he really can't put off another week. So, it looks like dad will be running our grill that day.

btw, kudos to luv and Monty for picking up the tailgating torch for the planetteers and running with it! very cool and generous!

:wayne:

I'm a bit of a n00b when it comes to these gatherings, so forgive me if this is a stupid question, but...

If there are gonna be a shit ton of people there (and it sounds like there might be), would it be completely lame and cheesy to have name tags for people? It might be nice to not have to constantly try and remember faces, usernames, and real names for people for those of us who haven't been around much before.

it's a trap! he just wants go around and write banned and stick em on people..

Heh...that would be pretty damn funny. Wonder how I can get a bunch of "banned" stickers printed up...

You can wear a sticker if you want. I don't want anybody knowing who I am, necessarily.

LOL

Yeah, I heard my name about 10 times.... :doh!:

Probably won't have to worry about remembering faces.

It's going to be about 20 degrees during the tailgate, my guess is most folks will have their faces covered.

I thought about mentioning that... Nzoner has name tags available at the bash every year, so it's not something completely unheard of for CP gatherings.

Yeah, nametags are dumb. I remember people by the quality of beer they hand me.
