Basketball Homecoming 2014

I'm happy that all of you have decided to join us for the Ninth Annual Purdue Basketball Homecoming brought to you by The Stone Cold Tailgating Club. I'm so glad that all of you can be part of what is now a standing tradition! This will be a great chance for us to get together and see a competitive Purdue game after the mess of a football season we experienced in 2013.

Saturday January 18, 2014
1:30 p.m.    Meet at 1814 Vinton
2:00 p.m.    Depart for Campus
2:30 p.m.    "Bargate" at Harry's
6:00 p.m.     Depart for Mackey
7:00 p.m.     Tipoff
9:30 p.m.     Postgame activities

The late game time makes for a perfect afternoon of "bargating" at Harry's.  We didn't make it there at all during football season and I hear that they're bottom line is suffering as a result!  Wouldn't want our favorite bar going under would we?

Unfortunately we're not going to be able to take the ambulance over to campus.  We have a lot of the tailgating gear stored in it right now and with Dad's recent surgery it's probably not a great idea for him to be muscling that beast around.  As a result we'll have to take a couple of cars to campus.  My parents have volunteered to drive and we should be close to being able to get everyone in the two cars.

Postgame activities will be up to whatever everyone else wants to do.  I'm happy to return to Harry's but I would be just as happy to return to the house as that has turned out to b e a lot of fun over the last few football seasons.  We do have darts, cards, games, and a popcorn machine back at the house so it's like having your own campus bar I guess.  (Plus we sometimes get fresh baked cookies.)
