Big House Tailgating & Jagerbombs

UMass Game - Whew!

UM vs. UConn

2010-09-22T22:47:00.003-04:00

We begin the season with the Huskies of UConn. UConn? you might wonder. Its not basketball season. Yeah - apparently they have football too.

The big question of the young season is "Who's the starting QB?" that would be answered soon.

The tailgate started with heavy hearts as we are missing Sheriff Lora. She will be missed.

Anyhoo - the tailgate today is without our cook - Reggie is off playing softball and left us on our own.

The team today is being led by Brock Mealer - older brother of OL Elliott Mealer. He was told after his accident that he had a 1% chance of walking again. He did so with crutches. God Bless him!

Our starting QB? Denard Robinson. We'll see how this little experiment goes. It can't be worse than last year.

We go on to beat UConn 30-10. Next week - its the Golden Domers of Notre Dame. GO BLUE!

RIP Lora

This is written with the heaviest of hearts. On August 25, 2010, God decided that he needed a new angel and He chose to take Lora to Heaven. She had been sick for some time and though we knew this would happen, we were absolutely stunned when it did. She was our Sheriff and more importantly, she was our friend.

You will be honoured at every tailgate as long as we continue. We will never forget you. Thank you for your friendship.

We look forward to seeing you again one day.

PSU - what can we say? They have a great team and we don't have a lot of experience. Enough said. We lost.

But on the fun side ('cause there's always a fun side!) our tailgate was fun!! How's that for you?

Guess what we shouldn't put on the propane heater? Fleece gloves.

Well, what can we say about this game. We're coming off of our first loss at an unrelenting Iowa team. We're not exactly looking forward to a game like this, but its still one more hurdle for a very young team to get over.

Long story short, it was an absolute blowout. A lot of people left in the first half, the rest left prior to the end of the game. It was my niece Kylie's first game - a birthday gift for her 11th birthday. We also made friends with some DSU fans - they seemed to have fun and we were happy to have them.

Okay - seriously. This is the Rancheros "Pump Up The Burrito" that fans are to participate in. Um, yeah. We did NOT participate. Clearly the Iowa fans had nothing better to do during the time out. The Michigan contingent couldn't help but stare and imagine what the Michigan fans would do if they did something like this at Michigan Stadium. Needless to say, it is something we will never have to worry about as I'm sure they will never do.

UM vs. Indiana University 26 Sept 2009

2009-11-08T22:21:00.002-05:00

Well, the quest for the Big 10 title begins today. 11 teams are still in the hunt - primarily since we haven't played a game yet ;)

We are 3-0 coming into the game with wins over Western, Eastern and a huuuuge victory over Our Lady. We have equated our entire 2008 campaign victories in our first 3 weeks. The future is looking up. We feel that we are invincible.

Indiana has been off of our schedule for the last 2 years and we're looking forward to playing them once again. Their program has been in a bit of a turmoil as well with the untimely death of their coach Terry Hoeppner in 2007.

It was a very close game - but we were finally able to win. We are now 4-0 and have had a perfect September. Something that hasn't happened since 2006 and before that you have to go back to the 1999 season captained by Tom Brady, Steve Hutchinson and Rob Renes.

Here's to our first road game next week in East Lansing at Michigan State. We have a very young team and to go into a very hostile environment such as that in Spartyville will be a test for our youngsters.

UM vs. Eastern Michigan 19 September 2009

2009-11-07T23:43:00.004-05:00

Today's opponent features our Washtenaw County rival - the Eagles of Eastern Michigan University. To understand this game a little better, you must realize that many Michigan fans are, in fact, Eastern alums. Michigan's former defensive coordinator, Ron English, is the head coach for the Eagles. He was let go after the departure of Lloyd Carr, and I'm sure he feels that Rich Rodriguez is in his parking spot. There are signs all around town about how EMU football is back. Hmmm....really? If you say so.

I'll keep this short and sweet. We kicked their ass. 45-17. End of story. We are now 3-0 and we have managed to equal our win record of last year which took the entire season. Its been a while since we've been 3-0.

Next up: The Indiana Hoosiers for Homecoming. The Big Ten season is ready to open - and the future is bright.

UM vs. Notre Dame 12 Sept 2009

2009-09-27T22:34:00.004-04:00

We are 1-0. Happy days are here again. Its been a while since we won a home opener. 2006 to be exact. Wow. Next up - Our Lady. Our former pupils of football, the Irish of Notre Dame. One of our most hated rivals. We hate everything about them - the school, the team, Jimmeh Clausen their QB and of course their coach - the one, the only Charlie Weis. The guru of the offensive scheme. Ha! I laugh at you.

We are short some of our tailgate crew this weekend. Bill is at his cousin's wedding and Laura and Chris are at Josh's wedding in Baltimore. Bonne plans on sending Chris score updates as often as possible and Bill is coming back to the tailgate after the wedding so he'll only miss a little of the game. However, we are joined by a friend from summer camp days at U of M - Anne is joining us - haven't seen her in a looong time! Looking forward to it.

3:30. Its game time. The little leprechaun and his team come out with their coach. We hate them. Have I mentioned that yet? To sum up the game, its back and forth, we have a lead, they have a lead. Back and forth. Back and forth. The team is looking better when Bonne is not in the stadium - so to take one for the team, she spends a lot of time out watching the game in the concession area. Also got to visit with the UM Wrestling Coach for whom Bonne had worked camps for in college. Bonne was actually stopped from coming back into the stadium as they kept doing well when she wasn't there! Taking one for the team, she obliged. The stadium was absolutely rocking. It was the loudest any of us had ever experienced! The structures add a whole new dimension making the stadium intimidating when 110,000 people are screaming as loud as they can! We finally have home field advantage!

Fast forward to the last 2 minutes of the game. Michigan is down and is on offense. Our Freshman QB Tate Forcier leads the team down the field and throws a game-winning TD pass with less than 20 seconds to go! We leave them 11 seconds on the board and it is sooooo loud there! Clausen has enough to get one play off after the kickoff. He throws the ball down the field - and the game is over. The game is over. Michigan has beaten Notre Dame 38-34 in the highest scoring game of their series. What an incredible feeling! We WON!! So wonderful! The fans in attendance probably won't be able to talk until later in the week - it was so loud!

UM Football Home Opener vs. Western Michigan 5 Sept 2009

2009-09-26T22:51:00.004-04:00

Well, well, well. It is that time of year. For a football fan, welcome to Christmas Morning. 10:00am began our season with College GameDay. Love it! Now, if you asked a Michigan fan that morning how we were going to do (i.e. starting a frosh at QB) today, they would have to say they were cautiously optimistic. You see, the beginning of a new season is absolutely beautiful. Beautiful. The slate is clean, you're no longer 3-9, your coach is no longer a first year coach. Its beautiful. STUPENDOUS! Like putting the Halloween candy out when you're a kid and you can eat the whole damn thing. Wonderful!

Our day started in typical fashion - breakfast at Denney's at 6:30am. Sheryl had our drinks on the table and our food was out in short order. Then it was a quick stop for ice on our way to the house to change cars, meet Chris, Laura & crew and then we're off to tailgate!

We got our gear set up and our first (of many) Jaegerbombs was bright and early at 8:00am. Keep in mind that our gametime is 3:30. We have to go slow - this is not a sprint, its a marathon.
We were soon joined by our dear friend Dennis who always enjoys the "Call to Jaeger".

Game Time. Feeling giddy - have to meet John & Judy to do the ticket pickup. Football is upon us. We head inside The Big House. New this year - piped in music. LOVE IT! Guess what else we love? WINNING! We really enjoyed the game - what's not to love with a 31-7 victory. Guess what else we love? Our freshman quarterback duo of Tate Forcier and Denard Robinson. In no way, shape or form last year could one of our QBs fumbled a snap and pick it up then run it - UNTOUCHED into the endzone. AMAZING!! Unfreakinbelievable. Looks like this year should be interesting to say the least.

Next up - our former pupils in Notre Dame. The second or third winningest program in NCAA history. You wanna guess who's numero uno? Yeah - Michigan. Stick it in your ear ND. We may have taught you how to play the game, but Rich Rod is getting ready to re-write the manuscript. Should be an interesting matchup. Love being the underdog I do.

Here we go - its the last game of the season. Michigan is at ohio state. (Yes, I realize that I didn't capitalize it. In my opinion, they don't deserve it.) Anyway - we are gathering at Chris and Laura's house to watch the game. We know the season has sucked, but frankly, its almost over! One more game. I could go on and on and on about the firsts for the season, but I won't. Its like beating a dead horse. Its been said before, and it will probably be discussed during the off-season so why do I need to say anything?

We had a great breakfast - waffles with kick-ass syrup, fudge, bacon. What could be better? Lunch was our favorite hearty cold-weather food - chili.

Lets say we went through a few bottles of jager - much to the dismay of some of us. (Note that MOST of the pictures aren't on here - they are not fit to put on the blog.) It was a great time with great friends. Our next feat - seeing our dear friends Chris & Laura tie the knot in January.

See you next season.

UM vs. Northwestern 11/15/08

2008-11-16T01:21:00.003-05:00

Today is the last home game. We are still in shock over the loss of our friend and fellow tailgater, Dennis. We spoke with Dennis Jr. during our tailgate, and he wanted us to do some jagerbombs for his family. Done. Also had to give the "Call to Jager" which made him laugh. Hang in there. We're here for you.

Today's weather report - CRAP. And cold. What ridiculous conditions for spending the day in the great outdoors. Today is the first day of deer gun season in Michigan - I'm sure many fans would bail to go hunting - not that the weather was better for that either. We set up our gear - both tents on our tarp. One problem - the wind was so bad that it kept picking up the tent. We took down the smaller one (our 10x15) and confined ourselves to the 10x20 with walls. Reggie did the best he could with cooking - it was really hard to keep anything dry. Our generator had sat out last night (as we load up the car on Friday nights) and did us the courtesy of not starting. Thank goodness that our heater is propane fueled.

As it turns out, Laura and Lora would head to the mall during the game since we didn't have a TV. We made the decision to break down the tailgate and would go back to the house for our post-game meal. So...before heading to the game we did just that. It was probably 35 out, with a constant steady downpour which only worsened and windy. What a lovely day. Did I mention we were soaked? We broke down, the girls went to Briarwood, we headed to the game. We missed most of pre-game because it took so long to break down. We endured the first quarter and the weather continued to get worse. We were soaked through 4-5 layers each - some of which included Goretex and "waterproof" pants. About halfway through the 2nd quarter we considered leaving the game at the half. I vetoed the idea. Then it got colder and colder. And colder and colder. I spent part of the first quarter in the bathroom trying to get my electronics (camera, Blackberry) situated into the closest layer of my person to keep them as dry as possible. We called the girls and they met us back at the tailgate at the half. We sat through the NU game 2 years ago in weather very similar to this. But this was just too much. As we were pulling out of our lot, the thermostat in the car said 35. It began to snow as we were leaving. We could have tolerated plain snow, but not that much rain. It was ridiculous.

We arrived home, unloaded the cars - why not, we were already soaked. Then we had to load up the dryer with our clothes, coats, gloves, socks, etc. We enjoyed the rest of the game with the food Reggie had prepared - all comfort foods. Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, chicken, veggies. YUM! At least we were dry. Attendance for the game: 107,856. Yeah, right.

We ended up losing the game 21-14. Surprise, surprise. Nothing at this point surprises us. We're just glad we didn't sit there in misery until the end.

Next up - the Bucknuts of Ohio State. Will we tailgate in C-bus for the game. Uh, hell no. We're heading to Chris & Laura's for the game. More dance lessons for their wedding reception will be practiced - it was highly entertaining. Learned how to do the Cupid Shuffle today - and we'll work on some more surprises next week. Oh yeah - and we'll watch a game as well. It is a sad state of affairs when the marquee Big Ten game next week isn't The Game, but the MSU vs. PSU game. Hmm....how far we've fallen. I'm sure next year will be better. Hells bells, it can't get any worse.

We are saddened to hear about the death of our friend Dennis (Sr.). We will remember him for his salsa, his cooking skills, his humor, his dedication to his family and to Michigan Football.

Mary, Dennis and family, our hearts go out to you. We love you and if there is anything you need, please don't hesitate to ask.

Here we go to Minneapolis! WOOHOO!! Road trip! We all flew into Minneapolis on Friday and headed to The Mall of America. Bonne is referring to it as Valhalla. What an amazing place!! And I got some pretty new jewelry =)
Then it was off to find something to do that night - WE FOUND A BAR THAT GIVES AWAY FREE ALCOHOL FROM 9:30-10:30!! Good Lord!! We took advantage - tried some new beer and then settled on our regulars.
We did our tailgating in the warmth and comfort of our hotel room. Jagerbombs were done for Amber who was walking 60 miles for breast cancer. You go, girl! The least we can do is drink for you =)
We wandered to the Metrodome - it was nice knowing we'd be inside. It was VERY cold outside.
Story of the game - WE WON!!!! 29-6! WOOHOOO!!!! I'll cut to the chase. Michigan put 4 quarters of football together in the same game. Hallelujah. We looked good in all facets of the game. Our only quandry was we couldn't complete an offensive drive and punch it in for 6. Settling for FGs isn't good when you're the underdog.
We went out Saturday night - this time to the Hard Rock Cafe. Good times. Then we got stuck with a drunk Minny fan at Applebees - tool.
Bring on the Wildcats of Northwestern!!
