Best UNT Tailgate

CaliMeanGreen · September 26, 2013

I am planning on making a game in October in Denton, I wanted to know who has the best Tailgate in MeanGreen Nation?

Also wanted to see if anyone would invite CaliMeanGreen to their tailgate before the game?

I would really like to try some quality Texas Tailgate food.

Who is the King/Quenn of Tailgating at UNT?

There are, in my opinion, two that stand out. Tony's balls and David's ribs.

Speaking of which, I've never tried Tony's balls. I think I'd like that.

We team parents do a pretty good job!

Yes...yes, you do! Victory shots anyone?

Yes...yes, you do! Victory shots anyone?

It was pre game Victory Shots in 2011 and 2012.....Expectations are higher this season and this tradition is now known as a "Bowl Shot!"

If you can hold out til UTSA my crew will have a solid experience setup. Pulled pork, TV, late November weather, early kickoff. We'd love to have you if it works out. Will be glorious.

I'd have to say Mine and Emmitt's tailgate is appropriately named, "The Best Damn Tailgate, Period."

There are other parties that contribute to the cause. :bbq:

We always be up on the hill catching the breeze or wind storm on certain games. However, for the MUTS game we have campsite in order, coolers packed, smore grill in tow and Mean Green stories into the night. It's simply the most wonderful time of the year!

Take it from a neutral observer. You'll score some of your best food and football talk at Tony's tailgating (where Harry and co hang out). Or as Mitzi Y'Barbo suggested, hanging out with the football players parents. They are always very welcoming of visitors, and you can get the "latest" info about the game.

Now, if the parents (and friends) of a certain walk-on player show up again over by Emmitt's and Rudy's tailgating, you could get from them some of the best brisket that I've tasted in a long time.

My bad, yeah you guys are. I didn't know if you had a tailgate name or if you wanted me to say your last name to describe the whole gang.

Somewhere there is a thread with a link to a map of member tailgate locations. The thread was moved around a bit and I don't know where it is anymore and in what forum.

They could post pics of the winners on the scoreboard during one of the breaks in the action.

Yep...it is always "they" could do this or that. That, my hard working friend, is one of the biggest challenges we have at UNT these days...too many people suggest things others should do and then just sit back and complain that nothing happens while sitting back and waiting for "they" to do it. "They" does get tired of all the talk with so little support. Takes a dedicated "they"...again, as you very well know. Like Churchill said...never have so many owed so much to so few......."they" are way too few at UNT these days.

You know exactly what I mean.

But, yes...pictures on the big board would be great. I am happy to work to get this contest on if anyone is willing to help. Cannot be a one person show. Could be way fun and could be an annual event if folks like it and participate....just a thought.

I do my best to add Spirit to The EmmRu23 and the Tony's BDT events as much as I can.

Regardless which one you attend you can't go wrong at either.

Theink we need a "most dedicated" award, too.

What's with all the inane hash tag crap? It is as bad as the terrible streak of poems we all had to endure. The cuteness and originality has long since past folks.
