Texans vs Vikings Blue Crew Tailgate

[Tedc]

Guys, you don't know how hard it is for me to read this thread. I wanna go SO bad!!!

I won't make my second game because my surgery is Tuesday AM. The goal is to be off the IR by season opener and our first playoff run.

BTW, if you know someone who needs some tickets and a platinum pass, see this link....

In the meantime, carry on, have a great time and give each other hugs for me. I am coming back, soon.

Ted! I am devastated that your not going to be at the game that I will be there for, really hope the surgery goes well though and its nothing serious, get well soon buddy.

On the Tailgate note, what time is it all kicking off, when should I look at arriving at the stadium for?

[TxDavid]

Ted-

Gonna miss seeing you there buddy. Hang in there and get better for the opener!

[GlassHalfFull]

We are going to bring 2 of Ted's 4 canopies, we can't fit all 4 in our van. So we will be short canopies, unless someone else can bring some or swing by and pick up Ted's.

Both Dave and I are getting off work early, so should be there shortly after 2 when the gates open. We are planning on bringing sausage again and who knows what else.

[TxDavid]

I have an EZUp that I will try to bring. Can't guarantee it will fit until I get the fan stuff loaded.

Sideline, I would give anything to be there but I just can't do it. In fact, I would normally just give the tickets away to friends or charity but with the missed work because of the back, surgery Tuesday, college tuition just paid out, and college textbooks needing to be bought, I need anything I can get for the tickets.

I hope to see you soon, buddy. Make sure you take lots of pics.

Blue Crew, take care of my little buddy.

Ted, I hope that you get well soon!! Enjoy the pills :-)

Sideline, I look forward to seeing you at the tailgate. FYI, if you are able to get there close to 2pm--I strongly advise it. I have a feeling that the traffic will be crazy. I am trying to map out my path now.

[Sideline]

I am staying at a hotel on the metro line so will just be hoping on that down to the game, so hopefully traffic won't be too much of a concern. However I will get down there as soon as I can. Do you all tailgate in the same place you did the last time I came to town?

Yes they do. Everyone will be there just show up whenever. I won't be there.

Andy! Got your ticket all lined up, so don't worry about that. I won't be there real early though, gotta wait until school is out. I'm shooting for around 4:30 or so, depending on the traffic.

I have a brand new canopy but doubtful I'll bring it tomorrow. Depends on if I have to bring my car, or my son in laws truck. Also have a new table. Probably will give them an official debut at the Jets game.

I'll bring some stuff to throw on the grill, Earls of course!! Something easy since I'll be rushed tomorrow.

MNF sucks for tailgating!! BUT, It'll be a blast spending even a few minutes with some of the greatest fans in the NFL!!! LOVE you guys/gals!! See ya all tomorrow.

Don't worry about missing your second game. Just get well for when the season counts. We'd rather have you there healthy and feeling good rather than being in a terrible amount of pain and miserable.

[SheTexan]

Take care Ted!! I'll be thinking about ya tomorrow morning also! Just relax, get well, and look forward to the Jets coming to town. We'll have a doozy of a tailgate for our home opener, and make up for all this preseason stuff. Maybe it'll be OUR turn to push YOU around in a w/c! lol We'll take care of you! I promise you that!

If ya need anything please call! My prayers will be with ya tomorrow morning!

Kathryn has a tall friend from work who will be occupying a couple of our seats. Please show them "the ropes" and welcome them into the Bull Pen for their fist time. He is a lawyer, so try not to hold that against him.

GAWD, I wish I could be there. You guys and gals have fun!

[TxDavid]

Ok Texans fans - it's almost tailgate time.

Along with the portacool, I'm bringing beer brats, smoked sausage, watermelon (spiked with Parrot Bay), and some stuff to make frozen margaritas (lime & strawberry). I also have plenty of bottled water. As soon as Dean gets here to haul the grill, I'll be headin down the highway.

will do.

[TxDavid]

Thanks to everyone that helped make the portacool happen. Dean & crew - thanks for taking care of the grill & hooking me up with power.

Can't wait to do this all again. Hopefully the Texans will look better when the games count.

That thing was cool (no pun intended).
