Game 2: Ball State

Can Somebody Pass the Tequila?

Um, well, that officially sucked last weekend. Keith Smith is likely lost for the season on a high/low hit on the sideline in the fourth quarter. What were the starters doing in there in the forth quarter against a FCS (aka I-AA) team? Well, the game was still embarrassingly close at that point. All in all not an impressive win, but hey it was a win which is more than this week’s opponent can say. Yes, that’s right, Ball State dropped a game to FCS team Liberty last weekend. I’m thinking Saturday will be a "titanic" struggle to say the least.

If the game isn’t going to be great there is only one thing to do: have a great tailgate! We will be hosting several of the participants from this year’s SCTC Vacation to Cozumel last May. In honor of this mini-reunion we will be having a selection of Mexican favorites including carnitas or beef tacos, elote, and chips and salsa. Oh, and of course Vampiros, Margaritas, and a selection of “Island Lagers.”

We will plan on meeting in the W lot on Saturday morning, hopefully towards the front of the lot just like last year. The W lot is across from the Slater Hill and the Stone Cold Tailgating Club spot is marked by the gold square.

For those of you parking in the IM Gold Lot it is only a 5 minute walk to the W lot, just think of us being on the way to the stadium. We have the large flagpole that extends to 20 feet and an ambulance so hopefully you will be able to locate us easily. We will be sporting our custom flag this year which sports our “Old School Boilermakers” motif similar to our cups.
