Bring on the Badgers – October 1 – Wisco at Meeechigan 3.30p

Well that was a fun start to the Big 10 Season!

This week we welcome the Badgers from Wisconsin to the Big House for another 3:30 kickoff.

If Wisconsin is here then guess we have to serve brats (as in bratwursts, not Sam’s kids), right?  So join us for a traditional tailgate with beer boiled brats, dogs, and burgers, plus Metzgers famous German potato salad, and pierogies.  We are again going with a contribution of $10 per adult to cover the main food items, along with water, coke, diet coke and sprite. That means you bring the side dishes and desserts.  Looking forward to see who pulls off a cheese themed dish to amaze everyone!!

There will be a keg contribution option for something from Atwater Brewery. There is also the option to contribute to the community cooler and partake from there. Remember, if you do not put into the community beer cooler, you should not take out. There is no free beer I mean at least we have the keg – in heaven there isn’t even beer!

To help make the tailgates more walking-friendly the hosts are providing more food / supplies each week (that can be brought in with the cars and parking passes); contributions to the tailgate fund are welcome and easy for you to carry in!

Please click over to the sign up sheet soon and sign up before Thursday night!!

Go Blue!

 

Michigan v PSU, 9/17 3.30pm

And so the 2016 Big10 Season begins.

This week we welcome the Penn State Nittany Lions to the Big House for another 3:30 kickoff.

To kick it off, the MGoTailgate theme this week is BBQ. There is no connection between PSU and BBQ food, we just thought it would be a great idea for this tailgate! I mean they both have three letters – can that be the connection?

Like our beloved Italian Beef tailgates, the hosts will be pre-ordering the “good stuff” from local Ann Arbor favorite. This means we NEED YOU to please sign up by Wednesday at 5 PM as to how many you have coming, and if you’ll be participating in the BBQ. We expect to get pulled chicken and pulled pork from Westside BBQ but need to know numbers to place the order.

This week we will again go with a contribution of $10 per adult to cover chicken or pork BBQ meat, buns, sauces, water and coke, diet coke and sprite. That means you can bring the side dishes, cornbread, and desserts. So come up with your best BBQ side be – it Mac & Cheese, potato salad, green bean casserole, or some other great dish! We could also use awesome homemade desserts to complement the BBQ.

We need crockpots to keep food warm; if you can bring one please indicate so on the signup and we will let you know if we need you to bring one. Thank you.
