Who's Attending Games This Year?

When I watch at home it's in the garage. Big TV, decent audio system, and a fridge. I don't drink alcohol but I have unlimited Coke Zeros in it and my buddies can throw whatever beer/cocktails they want in there. Bathroom is 30 seconds away in the house and as a bonus of me not drinking I can take anyone home who needs it. Smoker and grill are right outside the door so I toss food on.

A lot of times I’ll pick people up on the front end so they don’t have to leave their car if they have a few. None of my friends get even remotely squirrely but why take the risk...

Then at the end I’m not facing a 2 hour wait at the tailgate for traffic to thin and a 5 1/2 hour drive home haha.
Yep, that's the way to do it. I've got a TV in my garage as well but is just too messy at this point to host people. Too many projects going on that I start and don't finish. I really do need to get that cleaned up and the walls painted!

And the folks that do get shitfaced I have no idea how they do it... None at all. Tailgate early put in a crazy long day of partying and the game then I assume the drunks are riding home and not driving but I'm sure I'm wrong about that to whatever % of them do. But when I did go to some games I was tired way before the day was up and I didn't drink either. Those that do are just built differently then me I wouldn't even want to try.
 


Oldest son is taking me to the Oregon game as my Father's Day present. We used to do the Black Friday games, but he works for Apple now and nobody gets Black Friday off there.

Older I get the worse it is.

In my 20s a trip there and back in the same day was no big deal. It was almost an adventure type thing. Now at 44 I want NOTHING to do with a same day trip, lol.
