Diesel Tailgate

Per the Tailgating Coordinator...

Tailgaters,

Thanks for coming out for Homecoming-ween and I hope you had a safe trip home. This was the most awesome tailgate we've ever had. Period.

To help you with your case of the mondays, my photos are posted at http://dieseltailgate.no-ip.org/photos/2005/2005-10/index.html email me if you need the user and password. It's the same as last game.

If you have pictures (ESPECIALLY THE GROUP SHOT) please email them to me. I'm dying to see the group shot, since we had so many people there.

Hail to the Lion,
-Rob

Homecoming-ween Weekend 2005 (unofficial stats)
3 pickup trucks
1 stereo/car
~120 people
2 full size grills + deep frier + propane fireplace
3 full meals + pre-breakfast
flagpole, canopies and lights
plus many, many other awesome things.

We've got 47 tailgaters signed up already and I expect double that number to be out there. There are also plenty of new gadgets for this tailgate, including a propane fireplace. I'm looking forward to seeing all of you.

Per the Flair Master:

Tailgaters,

As you all know Homecoming (DDT6), our biggest tailgate of the year, is just around the corner. This year in honor of it being on Halloween weekend, we are having a full costume tailgate. We all know it's fun to tailgate, but tailgating while dressed up like an idiot is going to be awesome. We are going for categories in funniest, most original, sexiest, and of course extreme PSU flair (that means at least 17 pieces to down Rob who wins the most flair category every time).

If you haven't heard Kickoff is at 3:30, so we will be up there just before 8:00 when the gates open.

Per the Tailgating Coordinator:


Homecoming-ween is just 16 days away. Just another friendly reminder that don't know yet if you'll be joining us. We hope you can join us for the festivities, but planning for such a big event is a lot easier if we know how many people to expect. Let me know if you will or will not be coming, or even if you're not sure you can make it. RSVP by emailing us at rob@psualum.com before Oct 24th.

If you're not about a place to stay or a ride there, we've still got a few spots if you leave me know ASAP.
