Friday Rituals
Friday is often considered the MVD (Most Valuable Day) for getting your mind right for Saturday, excuse me...GAMEDAY!
Whether it is lugging 100 pounds of ice into your car, raiding Fritz's for delicious meat products, creating a potent homemade batch of Bloody Mary mix, ensuring the generator is loaded up with premium gasoline, painstakingly loading each support column for the gargantuan tent into the van, etc., etc....
However, TEAM Tailgate would like to take this opportunity to send a Big Ups to one of our biggest supporters. Although small in stature, 8 year old Will of Leawood, Kansas brings the ROCK CHALK fury!
As you'll see below, Will has just about everything "KU" on this earth...very impressive! However, we'd like to draw particular attention to his "Friday Best" carefully laid out across the headboard. Yep...RUN DMT!!! Something tells us that Will is the envy of his entire elementary school...fellow classmates, faculty, staff, the principal, crossing guard...all of 'em.
Take a bow, young Will.

Week 2 Report - UTEP
We know what you're thinking...Week 2 report? KU was on the road!
Exactly, which brings TEAM Tailgate to a couple other favorite football season rituals...recipe testing & watch parties!
What you're about to lay eyes on WILL, we repeat WILL, cause foaming at the mouth, as well as an intense burning in your gut, i.e. hunger pains. Please proceed with extreme caution!
Follow us on this culinary adventure...start with a jalapeno, stuff with a mixture of chorizo/cream cheese/jack cheese, wrap in bacon!
Load up your Chile grill, that just happens to be shaped like an armadillo, because that is money!
After 45 minutes of indirect heat...pure bliss. Can you say party in your mouth?
Recipe testing? Check!
Watch party?...Well, it appears the RUN DMT 09 tour bus swept through Chicago on Saturday night. A few proud supporters dominating Lottie's during a KU watch party.
Hope to see the masses on Saturday for our first breakfast tailgate of the season...then, we destroy Puke!

FAN CANS went early and often…to the tune of 13 cases.
HOT GRILL! HOT GRILL! Burgers were succulent.
The game…RECORD crowd of 52,530 watched the Hawks take care of business, 49-3.
Highlights for your viewing pleasure

Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance
T minus 6 days...This is how a superior tailgate ensures Week 1 not only meets expectations, but dominates!
Operation Tent Set-Up. Done and done! Pretty large and in charge, yes?
Tested a new apps recipe...grilled Italian sausage...
...with Bloody Mary dipping sauce...
Ladies & gentlemen, we introduce...the Sat-Go. The world's first portable satellite TV!
Once the feed is live, simply run video into our big screen. Been thinking about how to display the TV this year, as well...setting it on the table seemed kinda broke...SOLVED!
Hope to see you next Saturday. We'll be plenty fired up by the time GameDay starts. Shoot us a message with headcount and estimated arrival time to ensure spread is fully prepared.
