OU Recap

Well ... well ... well ... TEAM Tailgate is at it again.

Sailing thru some uncharted waters with this whole 8:15 PM kick-off situation, we vacillated all week about arrival time. What time is reasonable to arrive for such a late start? Don't you worry ... first operational tailgate at 11:00 a.m. Sorry for partying! And no, we don't count these clowns who set up tents and chairs early in the AM and "begin" tailgating 2 hours before game time. Weak sauce.

Our fellas over at Clear 10 continue to bring the fury, fueling TEAM Tailgate and guests with libations.

It appears word travels fast these days ... the Italian Stallion lore spread like a brush fire. Folks came from far and wide to feast on this culinary dynamo. A grilled Italian sausage with provolone, topped with Italian beef and marinara. Hells yes! A few loyal TEAM Tailgate followers popped in from Austin, Chicago, and Prairie Village to chow down. Happy gullets indeed.

And these two fellas, accompanied by none other than the Godfather of TEAM Tailgate, Larry P. They jumped "the pond" to partake in this sandwich extravaganza. Yep, all the way from England! Good times mates ...

10 hours of tailgating can drain ya, no question. Unless ... an impromptu game of flip-cup breaks out on the track. Really took the energy up a notch. Great call, Mr. Johnson.

Next Saturday ... 11 AM. KU v K-STATE. 11th & Mississippi will be a rockin'.
