Roll Call - Anyone here going?

[Herkeye1986]

I am headed to Madison and to Camp Randall for the first time. Hoping to sneak out out 17-10 Hawks win...but just as likely to lose by the same score. Anyone else going and should we tailgate or hit a bar up before the game?

 

[RobHowe]

I'll be going but working. Leaving in the morning. No hanging out for me. Dexter's Pub is the joint.

 

[Northside Hawk]

We hope to be at our tailgate spot by 9:30, corner of Park and Regent.

Not sure if we will be able to make it to Dexter's Pub, that's over on the east side.

Any bars would probably be on Regent close to the Camp, and probably after the game.

Watch out for those Badger fans, they can be first class d-bags! I know from past experience going there for a game

I hear you. My mom's entire family is from Milwaukee. Passionate and illogical about their sports...and everything else.

They're very knowledgeable when it comes to cheese.

Shhh...dont tell @westender that. He will point out how hard and honorable farm work is even when you were only making a joke during badger week.

Get tanked and mix it up with the college youngsters. Live it up!

Yah I got that.

I've brought this up before, having lived for eighteen years behind enemy lines. Iowa and Wisconsin people have a lot in common on the surface. They will do neighborly things for each other, have bake sales to raise money for the local school, work hard, and drink harder. When they give you their word you can usually count on it.

The difference is beneath the surface. Wisconsin people have just a touch of holier than thou self righteousness. They will preach and lecture on a certain wrongdoing, then turn around and do it themselves. They are do as I say, not as I do types of people.

There is much less of that in Iowa. My wife and I went to a flea market in What Cheer in October and the difference between those people and the people who ran the Vespermann Farms corn maze in Lancaster Wisconsin the day before was readily evident all over again.

Did you put extra wide doors in your house or just take out the walls so she can get around? Or has she reached peak Badger where she has blown up so much that she just stays in one room all the time and has to get a sponge bath every 48 hours? If she gets too big, the EMTs might have to take the front off your house to get her out.

 

[ibahawkeye]

We’re driving up in the morning... Looking for advice on parking. This will be our first time to Camp Randall

 

[Fryowa]

I wonder how many of you guys I’ve run into at games

He married a Badgerette, not a Clownette

I wonder how many I will see on Hwy. 151 between Platteville and Madison.

Once a week in the fall the inmates at the Island Of Misfit Toys get to leave the grounds.

I'll have my Jelly Shooting Gun ready for them.

I've gone to Madison the last 3 times including 2015, but I can't go this year because my wife made plans.

Selfish jerk

I've never had an issue with any fans in Madison ever. Might help that I go with a badger fan but everyone's been fun and fine

Your wife said the leaves need raking, the patio furniture needs to go into the shed, the snowblower needs tuning up, the garage needs straightening out, and the X Mas lights need to be strung.

Your wife had plans alright.....for you!
