BRB Takes Over Reliant Stadium?
While the preseason tilts would most likely have the greatest amounts of tickets readily available, there's nothing like the regular season (or playoffs...so I hear). And I'm also in favor of beginning said tailgate closer to noon than sunrise. Thus, it should come as no surprise that I'd vote for everyone interested to meet up in a designated parking lot at Reliant prior to/after the Baltimore (09/14/08) or Detroit (10/19/08) game. But I'm just one man.
Here's the schedule. What do you think?

I vote for Detroit because October in Houston is great weather.
I also vote that we head to Dallas in the preseason and light some shit on fire.
Yay, sports.

Way To Go
With that platitude about October weather in Houston, you’ve likely doomed us to crappy weather that weekend. Nice job, jinx.
Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...

Re: Jinx
A guy accidentally gets one really good CB injured and all of the sudden he is an all-around jinx? Damn.
Yay, sports.

the best part will be when pancakes attacks me with a spatula.

nah
That would require work. He’d just get Anna-megan to do it for him while he caught it on video for his blog.
I have complete faith in Smithiak's draft selections. But I hope Mendenhall and Jenkins really suck, you know, just to make sure.

That won't work...
she’ll get distracted by the shininess of the spatula and wander off.
Yay, sports.

Re: Spatulas
Whoa – were using metal spatulas? Damn it – why am I always the last to know?

Please come tailgate with me. :)
I have a front row tailgate spot in the Platinum lot, next to Blue. One of my buds makes home brew with amazingly high alcohol content. My friends nearby at the Raging Bull Tailgates have the most impressive grill trailer I’ve ever seen in my life and are good peeps. The St. Arnolds tailgate is nearby and they give away free beer. The Blue Crew is down the aisle, and they are good people too. Texans are good people.
The 3pm games should make for some fun tailgating. October will likely be hot still, closed roof, but big fun tailgating.

YES!
This sounds awesome. That October game, in particular, sounds promising.

My 2c
I don’t care when or where we do it, I just wanna get drunk and talk football in person with all my BRBers.
And I like Steph’s idea.

Lion's meow?
I like the idea of the Detroit game. Beer, brats and victory, mmmm…

Tailgating with me is fun. :)
My tailgate area is close to the stadium and easy to get to from different places. Lots of really diehard fans around-it is this section of the parking that petitioned for an earlier start time than the rest of the stadium and we have reserved spots so we are always in the exact same location week after week-which makes it easy to meet people.
My buddy Josh makes the best guacamole ever. I will even volunteer to make my wonderful irish whiskey cake. You will get to meet my infamously cussing friend Diane.
The Detroit tailgate is likely going to be bombdiggity anyway because of the 3PM start. So BRBers will make it bombdiggity plus plus.
And I will guarantee to wear something ridiculously Texany. Because I always do. Everybody must wear some Texans gear, or I will beat you senseless. Unless you like to be beaten senseless, and then I won’t do it.
When it gets closer to the date, I’ll give more details on where to go and what to bring and whatnot.

Awesome Steph
You are very kind to open your normal tailgate to such a group of vagrants.
To all…if we’re doing this, let’s get the game(s) picked ASAP.
So you're saying that now I have to think of some witty Sig that will be applicable across all the SBN sites? Go TexanHornStros!

Well I can make it to the Aug 9th
Denver preseason game, isn’t that the first? Kind of to get in the mood for the season…If that’s not the one you want to plan as a group, but someone wants to go, let me know.

Re: Denver
I’ll probably be at the exhibition game too, so I’m good with having a practice run if there’s enough interest. If not, 1Tex and I can just split a bottle of scotch on the corner of Kirby and OST.

I do seem to be a good luck charm for Super Mario when playing Denver…

“You are very kind to open your normal tailgate to such a group of vagrants.”
“Normal” tailgate? Our tailgate is abnormal. Big numbers of people that randomly show up to one parking spot. We eat, drink and talk football. Basically, it is an open invitation.
