Thanks for the kind words. As long as everyone is having a good time thats all that matters. Drag a new comer to the BLVD for every game and we'll have that stadium full in no time. See ya September 6th!

A great way to increase Boulevard and football game attendance among students:

Provide free SMU Spirit Blindfolds to all attendees, including our SMU PD friends, and lift the keg ban. Full stadium by week two.
We've never lost the tailgate.

I went to the TCU tailgate last year, and there was no way the majority of those kids were 21. It was like one big outdoor party in the Greek section. I damn near cried with envy.

Our girls were much, much more attractive though.

3. Which tailgate won the Mardi Gras decorating contest, complete with elevated platform with people holding a sign that said "Show us your ... Pony Ears" for the Tulane game several years ago? Friends of the Tailgate

4. Which tailgate had its Halloween graveyard featured in the ESPN telecast lead in for the Halloween UAB game? Friends of the Tailgate

5. Which tailgate is so committed that it stayed up all night for the SMU Relay for Life just so it could break out the set up in the tailgating "offseason"? Friends of the Tailgate

6. Which tailgate tailors their food depending on who the opponent is? Friends of the Tailgate

7. Which tailgate has nap cots for that mid-afternoon nap? Friends of the Tailgate

8. Which tailgate is unveiling this flooring for its tailgate next season:

9. Which tailgate has never missed a game since Ford openend in 2000? Friends of the Tailgate

10. Which tailgate had a 9-day-old tailgater last year? Friends of the Tailgate



I rest my case.


I plan on flying in for at least 3 games and will attend Friends of the Tailgate for all (with a quick stop off at Cox for a few beverages). I do hope to aquire a F.O.T.T. T-Shirt though . . . I was there on day 1 when F.O.T.T. was featured on Dale Hansen's Sports Special at the KU game... and have been every year since...

Can't wait for the new flooring!!!

I wish I could figure out how to drag someone FROM the blvd TO the stadium...if we got half of those that never entered the stadium to go over to Ford, we'd be in good shape.

While we're discussing this, however, I think I'd like to continue to stock my favorite beer...but also add champagne c0cktails. Champagne, bitters, sugar cube...best had at the hotel Coronado in San Diego with a cigar, but I think it would fit the blvd well. Those that have provided ice chest space, supplement your spot with this drink, I'm glad to do so.

A couple years ago, we briefly ended up at the tailgate of a nice guy named [deleted] (there was also a nice lady there named Dawn), down close to Perkins chapel, and they served us straight Makers Mark out of silver goblets. Now that is some hospitality folks
