Thoughts from 19 Sept 2008 - To The Heat I Head...I am jacked beyond belief about Tailgate 2008 - Desert Dawg Edition. While this may not be tailgating as we know it under the shade of UGA’s beautiful North Campus and amid Athens’ gorgeous co-eds, we are slated to have a spectacular weekend in Tempe. A few friends and hordes of the Bulldog Nation are converging on invading Athens West for the weekend. We will feel at home when we make Mill Street resemble Broad Street - red and black clad fans barking loudly, discussing the finer points of our beloved Dawgs, and shouting Go DAWGS! We will make do with what ever Tempe Tailgating has to offer and represent Georgia well. Now which way to the Taco Stand?
Let me say it again...I am stoked out of my gourd about this weekend. I have been reading blogs and newspaper articles online most of the week, and thanks to a last minute grab of the Mac and PDX's free Wi-Fit, my 90-minute flight delay spent reading about the Dual in the Desert seemed much shorter - reading more blog posts and newspaper articles. Enough of this reading I say...get me to Tempe. The excitement is so rampant around the House of Davi that even The Wife is singing songs about "going to see the Doggies!" I am not making up this my friend. It is a beautiful sound to hear!
The trip has started well...Jen is safe in Tempe, and I am safely on my way now. Dinner was eaten at a red and black table with red chairs. What a wonderful start.
So I am off and going, having talked with a few people on my flight who are aware of the excitement that surrounds this Dawgs in the Desert Weekend, so this should be an indicator that things will be nuts in Athens West / Tempe. Go DAWGS! Now it is time for the Bulldog Nation to show Sparky how to...
Get Out And Romp
