Ironically, the corner of Melrose and Hawkins used to be a hot tailgating spot, especially for students. There used to be a huge lot on the corner approximately where the hospital parking ramp is today.

I am keeping it simple with brats and burgers and watching the game on the deck with some friends.

Brats & Smoked Sausage for us, waiting for Hurricane Dorian to come through later in the weekend.

Yea, I used to tailgate in that lot. Our party would get their first so we were literally at the corner of the two sidewalks. We could touch the Melrose and Hawkins sign. Maybe that is why I chose that for my username!

Hey, be careful. How far are you from mainland hit?

It really kind of depends on if/when it makes a turn. If, as they are currently saying, it goes along the coast, we feel it, but we're in Orlando, so it'll be wind/rain bands. If it does NOT turn? ALL bets are off, but good news is, it won't happen before game tonight!
