Not as good as the ones that they did in Frisco last year, but I understand it was better financially for them to partner with a third party for a "tailgate in a box" type setup, so I'm all for saving the school money.

Next time, just please have a better beer selection!

Did they ever replenish the BBQ?

It was like 2 hours before the game and they had run out of barbecue. The bar was solid though and the band was pretty perfect for the event.

It was hit or miss. Luckily Rudy's was around the corner so they restocked in relatively short order every time they ran out.

Actually, this year was more costly to the University. Wanted to do essentially the same thing as last year, but the Frisco Bowl wouldn’t allow it.  There was already a contracted tailgate event between the bowl and Tailgreeter.  You might recall that originally the cost was to be $100 per person.  The Alumni Association joined forces with Tailgreeter and paid down the per person cost so that guests only had to pay $25 per person (or $75 same day).  This cost the Alumni Association more money because much of last year’s event was made possible through alumni donated food, drink, etc.

Well in that case, glad you all did something. And sorry of the bowl to box y'all in like that!
