We take the RV down to Lincoln on Friday nights before the game and usually go out to dinner or meet up with other tailgaters for awhile. Saturday mornings we wake up and Mark sets up the tables, TV, speakers, chairs, etc. outside while I get the food ready to go inside. This past weekend we had pulled pork BBQ sandwiches, corn casserole and of course, Rotel cheese dip and chips. Plus cookies and other easy snacks. You won't go hungry! Sometimes we go into the game, sometimes we don't. I think I actually prefer to stay at the tailgate and watch the game on the TV while talking with all of the friends that stop by to say "hi."
This past weekend we met up with several Michigan State fans who were there for the weekend, and we ended up hanging with them most of the afternoon and wound up dancing into the wee hours of the night at The Red 9...a night club just a block away from our tailgate spot. They told us how much they liked Nebraska fans...very polite and just down to earth and nice. That's always good to hear!
Here are a few photos. Mark wears his red and white striped overalls and white patent leather shoes to every game. This time, the Michigan fans found a true connection with Mark! :)
