After evaluating the findings, we worked collaboratively to come up with a new tailgating plan that we could all agree on.

Sounds like a question for the AD's office.

Until we are a good team they need to keep the tailgating the way it is

I hope whoever's on the original traditions committee believes in and knows the university's original traditions, not only the 'original' ones from the last decade or two.

I can assure you that Jim Johnston (co-chairman) knows the original traditions.

Original traditions. Drink Peruna and yell your head off as we whoop up on the other team.
Started in the 20's.

Hail to the Red and the Blue
We're Mustangs from SMU

Bus,

I believe that is original tradition number 1.

I just can't believe they actually drank Peruna. That stuff taste nasty.

Surely (don't call me Shirley), somebody could establish a Peruna concession on The Boulevard. It doesn't need to be trash-can punch in nature, just something that everybody felt was a "good luck" ritual before going to the game. And they could serve Peruna Pony Punch (kool-aid) to the kids. "Gotta Have Some Peruna" before leaving The Boulevard.

Just buy an old Peruna bottle on ebay and fill it with Jagermeister.

Sorry, but Jagermeister taste better than Peruna.

I dunno, Peruna isn't that bad, always had a metallic taste to it that i didn't enjoy though.

Warm Schaeffer is better than Peruna.

Call me a sadist, but neither are bad. Now, if only I could find my cough syrup....
