TAILGATE OF THE MILLENNIUM. Get there early or forever hold your peace! 4pm-8pm, Monday Sept 6.
The tailgate of the millennium has garnished more attention then we expected. While this is a good thing, it also has taken a bit more time and we have run into some minor challenges when organizing. For anyone that has been to one of our tailgates at FedEx, you probably know that we never charge anyone. Unfortunately, Tech/Boise will have to be an exception. After polling the crowd, it sounds like most people prefer not to carry a bunch of beer across the parking lots. Please read below, as it should include everything you would ever need to know.
WHERE – FedEx Field Parking Lot. We’ll be in the green/orange lot right at the A63 post. Anyone who has been to our tailgate before should know where this is. It’s very convenient from the metro and close to the stadium. For those driving, you will want to take exit 15B and after approx 0.5 miles hang a right on Garrett Morgan Blvd. Below, you can see a link to the parking lot as well.

WHEN – We found a loophole, but to make things most simple we will be at our post by 4pm. We expect our cars will be at the gates no later than 230pm to line up. Don’t worry…nobody has said we cannot tailgate on the streets. Anyone who would like to join early, please let us know. The more the merrier, as more cars means more space reserved at A63.
COST – We will ask for $10 from anyone that plans to hang out for a bit. We’ll make sure to have more than enough beer (5+ kegs) and tons of VT jello shooters. We will have limited food so please see food section below.
FOOD – This has become very difficult since we don’t know how many people are really going to show. We will have plenty of hot dogs and chips, but the food menu is extremely limited. If you want to bring something for yourself, for your friends, or to share then feel free. We will have four grills ready to roll. You can sign-up on the sheet and next up on the list grabs the next available grill space. This should give everyone plenty of time to grill for their direct group (assuming they choose to do so).
LIQUOR – Bring if you want some. Again, we’ll have more than enough beer and tons of jello shooters. If you want other liquor, make sure and bring a bottle (or two).
GAMES – We will have 3-4 cornhole boards, along with beer pong/flip cup.
I think this covers most everything. We will have various surprises and fun things to do, watch, drink. The tailgate trailer will be in the house…for those who have not seen it, get ready.
Again, please bring $10. We feel like assholes even asking, but simply cannot spend an insane amount of cash for this many people. It’s very tough to predict numbers, but we are assuming 150-300+ and want to play it safe rather than running out of booze at 5pm.
Lets kick Boise’s Blue asses and send them back out West where they belong!!!
CRUSHEM CRUSHEM CRUSHEM,
GO HOKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
