O.k. I've been to my fair share of tailgates and have seen a lot go down. As you can imagine, it is usually is aided by some form of alcohol. Here is where a huge debate of mine begins, is it better to tailgate with beer or some hard booze? Beer is usually the drink of choice at college tailgates because it's cheap, can be shared easily, and is great for various games. However, when I go to tailgates with my parents (lame, I know...but when I go with them it's a day of free food and drinks), their friends are pretty classy for the most part and have a table set up full of any kind of liquor and mixers you can think up. I have a few good and bad things to say about both of these that might even have you questioning which is better. But, before I give my verdict, I want to hear what you think. I'm sure you all have something to say on this, even if it doesn't have to do with tailgating. Overall, which do you prefer to party with? It's not as simple as it seems.
well usually I'm just a beer guy. However, on the really cold days it's usually beer and a couple bottles of md20/20. not exactly fine liquor, but it's cheap and does the job for us college students.
ReplyDeleteMy vote goes to beer. When you party with liquor shit just gets ridiculous way too fast.
ReplyDeleteAre mimosas too girly for the Steeler Nation? Right. I thought so. O.k. (But still, unless you're feeling sentimental, they beat a cold Iron in a plastic cup any day.)
ReplyDelete(Also, and this is way off-topic, but I had an idea for something you might want to cover in your blog at some point. Tailgate Fashion. That's right. Check this at The Baltimore Sun for an idea: http://www.baltimoresun.com/features/bal-ae.glimpsed20sep20,0,6690479.story.)
Also, please tell Brian to lay off the md 20/20. That stuff can blind a person.
ReplyDeletelj,
ReplyDeleteI think mimosas are fine...as long as it is at the beginning of a tailgate, and before 11 a.m.. Also, I agree with you about Brian, he should just stick with his Miller High Life.
On the side though, I can't wait to tackle fashion. I thought about doing a post related that before because of the ridiculous things people will wear out in public. Thanks for the site reference. I can't wait to check it out!
Hey now. There's nothing wrong with MD 20/20. Don't tell me you guys never drank that. It not like I drink it all the time. It just warms you up faster than a beer. Plus the flask like bottle makes it really easy to carry in the back pocket. And that makes it even better for when I'm out tailgating.
ReplyDeleteOh Brian, I'm not gonna knock you for it. It's your right as a tailgater to drink what you want, as long as you're alive the next morning.
