Though not as crazy as during GS 1.0, the ones that were there were lively to say the least

Stopped by Spank's spot - as usual, the guy knows how to throw a party. Great food/drink, met my wife/daughter and couldn't have been more gracious.
Hit the Boardwalk for a bit before then stopping by RCBeta's tailgate in Scarlet - another guy that knows how to throw a party! What a spread and great company

Tell you what... if GS can figure things out, watch out
We got the W, prefect night for football, caught up with some more heads on the way in (BKin118 and a few others)
So happy football is finally back!!!

I was in the 2nd row of the yellow lot. Very good tailgate vibe yesterday. Great weather makes a huge difference.

I was in the row behind you. Must have missed you!
And @koleszar was a few rows behind you. Will try to find you next time, did not realize you were in Yellow. We brought 2 guests with the free tickets, and it's a good thing we did, we needed to pump up the attendance numbers. They liked the tailgating and boardwalk scenes.

My group was down several members, and the only other who could make it was arriving after 4 so we skipped tailgating entirely. We'll be back in black in full force next game. I'll try to swing by Spanky's spot to say hey.

I was by the Jersey thin crust pizza truck, I always have to be creative when I tell you where we're at. We gave out all the left over Korean Beef to our neighbors before you came. Forgot to tell you about that, they all loved it.

As for the game, I was about to go batsh*t crazy every time our defense came onto the field. My group of seatmates and I began a betting game on how much time will be on the clock till Ohio scores next.

Saw you going to your seat last night. You are in the same section as us. We are in the last row- you are close to the field. Please tell Dave G Steve from his old crew says hello. That roof job was hilarious. There were no stringer studs on old roof, and it almost collapsed into the second floor. Have had firefighters ask how a guy who works in an office know so much about construction, and I tell them my better half may know more than me!

Interesting, the tailgating scene was pretty much a repeat of last year's Thursday night game. Our tailgate got going about 10:15, got a chance to really crank up my speakers (my Christmas gift to myself) for the first time. @LETSGORU91's crew joined us, people filtered in throughout the day, by 2-3 we were really hopping. Too bad we had to go into the game!
I think overall we were over 30 people, good turnout! Met a bunch of people from the boards, really great to talk with them in person.

Hey brother, where are my Block R's?
Really great meeting your family, I hope your little one enjoyed the atmosphere and the game. More to come!

Looking forward to it!

Perfect day for tailgating and it was a great day overall.

I just realized you may not recognize the new name. I'm the poster formerly known as rurichdog. You stopped by my tailgate last season during that windy-*** game. Took a few pictures, traded some good pregame banter. You're always welcome at the team "NJ - We Don't Like You Either" tailgate.

Oh, trolling us with a new name, huh? That's it buddy, you're banned!
Yeah, I do remember the name and swinging by your tailgate - I think we had to keep the flags lower to keep the poles from snapping in the wind, right? See ya next weekend!
