First things first ... a 6:00 p.m. kick-off means two things.
1. Ridiculously early set up! Even after all these years, Mr. Dreiling's domination continues to surprise us. This one-man wrecking crew had the entire tailgate operational by 6:00 a.m. Bravo!
2. Three meal tailgate! Per usual, a wide variety of options to satisfy those gameday cravings.
BREAKFAST - Biscuit sammys with thick-cut bacon and colby jack.
LUNCH - Trailer Park dogs with queso and crumbled potato chips and, never to be outdone, the man, the myth, the legend ... Earl Campbell.
DINNER: - Pimento cheese burgers.
A Big Ups from TEAM Tailgate to our surprise guest of the day ... Samantha Steele with Fox Sports. Hung out, talked shop, and threw the pigskin around a little bit. Good times.
Just a few quick honors to throw around from Week 1:
MVP = JMD. First game of the year and he delivered by single-handedly putting TEAM Tailgate's flag in the ground and marking our territory ... all before the sun came up. Well played, my friend.
Brett Favre Award = MTB (Mike The Bartender). After announcing his retirement at the off-season executive committee meeting, Mike declared "I'll be back for Week 2" within 3 minutes of being at the tailgate. Just classic stuff, Mike. We all look forward to Bloody Marys next weekend.
These final two pics may foreshadow what Jayhawk Nation is about to embark on this season ... regardless of the final number in the W column, TEAM Tailgate will be having a super time at 11th & Mississippi before, during, and after each home game. That is about the only thing we can predict this season.
All packed up, ready to hit K-10, turn the ignition ... silence. That, my friends, is what we call irony.
Hope to see you next weekend ... 11:00 a.m. kick-off. Breakfast spread will be legendary.

I love that you guys look like the ONLY ONES THERE when Samantha stopped by. She probably thought you all were crazy! Nice recap!
