Bowl game head count
- Thread starter jesterondirt
- Start date
good for you Illness means only 1 here, but I'm springing for send-a-student as well.
We have 12 from our tailgate group going so far. We cannot wait!!! Most of us are driving down Christmas Day so we have all day Saturday to tailgate 
12 or so in our group are in. Going to get drunk at some craptastic Shreveport Casinos on Christmas night, bars stay open til 6am at the casinos.
Speaking of giving away tix, you can make a GHC donation and specify in the notes that it's for "send a student" to the bowl game!
speaking of casinos, does anyone know if there is a one that (in addition to rooms) is smoke-free or, at best, doesn't smell of smoke. I can tolerate the newer Vegas casinos that have super filter systems, but I simply freeze and walk out of older ones when the smoke hits.
Right now got a total of 8 going in our group! D-Rock's last college game so should be a blast!! The wife and I are going down Monday the 21st and staying at The Boomtown and going to rake in millions before the game kicks on the 26th (just in case going to hide some gas money to get home on)!!!

Haven't decided yet, but thinking seriously about driving down the morning of the game with my 12-year old son. He's been bugging me about it since before we were even bowl eligible.

Morning of the game for me too. Then cashing in some Marriott point for one night.
4 in our group. It's going to be a cross between Christmas Vacation and Vegas Vacation (Shreveport style). Headed down Christmas Day.
Might be looking for a tailgate to visit before the game if anyone has room! Would be more than happy to bring something to contribute. I know the TU Alumni is hosting one too, but old school tailgates are always much more fun!!!
I like Christmas presents Uncle Jester!
Luetjen,
We have a pretty good group going from our tailgate. About 12 right now and we have reserved 8 tailgate spots at the stadium already. A few for cars and a few for tents. You are more than welcome to join us. Email me at unionman79@sbcglobal.net and we can exchange contact info.
We also have a tailgate Facebook page

You can also buy tickets for students and for troops on the Tulsa hurricane website. I assume all of those count towards TU's allotment.
Superior Grill for pretty good Mexican or Pappas Steak House (Pricey) should both be open but would be wise to check there hours.
For chain food, Texas Roadhouse should be open.

After telling me that we weren't going to be able to go I opened 6 tickets this morning and we are BOWL BOUND!!! 6 from the Metroplex.
Just passed Paris TX. Looks like smooth sailing.
Counting down at my inlaws house!
This is the first bowl game I'll have watched here in 10 years, just never lined up that way for our Christmas visit.
They have no idea what they are in for...
