Welcome, Tiger Tailgating

This Saturday officially kicks off Tiger tailgating season. Mizzou's first home game will be at 1:00pm against Western Michigan. I love tailgating for several reasons:

1. We get to hang out with our friends, the Rau's, who are super-busy important people and we don't get to see them much of the year.
2. We get to spend the equivalent of a full work day at Faurot Field, cheering on our favorite team.
3. After the game, even if we lose, we stand around in the parking lot and tailgate for at least two hours after the game, which means we totally avoid all of the traffic. How can you argue with that?

If I am counting correctly, this will be our seventh year straight as season-ticket holders. Wow - doesn't that make you feel old? Well...it makes me feel old, anyway.

GO TIGERS!
