“Grilled and lean and spiced and tasty/the Meat from Ipanema goes wafting by/and when it passes by each one it passes goes, ‘Mmmmm.’” Alright, maybe that’s not exactly how Brazilian composer Tom Jobim wrote it, but, without discounting bossa nova, Brazilians certainly have a way with barbecue too — the roasted meats at their steakhouses are the stuff of legends.

That's a great deal, Tuesday night then? Will anyone still be in town by then?

[Sassy]

I figured Rodizios would almost have to be Sunday night???

[Sassy]

Who are the Rox playing? We could catch Sunday football at a variety of different places downtown as well.

1:10 first pitch Vs. Reds on Sunday, Sept. 11th.

[Sassy]

TGN are you and Lisa in for Rodizios? Your daughter too?

[TailgateNut]

If I don't plan to attend the game, likely. If I do, not likely.

[Sassy]

If I don't plan to attend the game, likely. If I do, not likely.

Ok...I'll ask closer to gametime then! LOL!
and PS...someone has to make those awesome jalapenos!:wiggle:

I'll continue making those, but it may be on the back patio, not in the lot!

[Sassy]

I'll continue making those, but it may be on the back patio, not in the lot!

So is that an invite :wiggle:

[TailgateNut]

So is that an invite :wiggle:

you're not going to the game either?

[Sassy]

you're not going to the game either?

LOL! It didn't have to be during game time! Such a brat you are Leo!:P

[TailgateNut]

LOL! It didn't have to be during game time! Such a brat you are Leo!:P

If I don't attend and we've bought and moved/settled into a new home by then I may be able to host a get together. The last house contract fell through on inspection consession negotiations. It would have been the ideal party place for a large group. We are currently scrambling to find/buy one before the new school year begins to avoid having our daughter make a change mid-semester/mid year.

[Sassy]

Didn't realize you were looking for a new house! Cool...and busy! Good luck!

[TailgateNut]

Didn't realize you were looking for a new house! Cool...and busy! Good luck!

Trying to get out of the current school district to allow my daughter to attend school without a concealed carry permit. She has 2 years left before we ship her off to college and the new $96million HS I actually lobbied to fund has turned into a haven for gang members and kids who just don't give a **** about education. the district, with their ultimate wisdom decided that because they had room, to open the school for anyone to enroll, which has children from all areas of Denver Metro enrolling in the "shiny new HS".

[Sassy]

That just sucks!

[TailgateNut]

Yep. The old "ugly" school was in the top 100 in the state. The new "pretty" school is rated at 246 out of 300 some in the state.

[Sassy]

OK taking reservations for Rodizio's for Sunday night...let me know and I will set it up...so far I have Ray, Myself, Sarah & Ryan, Mike...

[smalltowngrll]

In

Skybox, In

Hopefully we'll be in town for the baseball game!

Rodizios....Not sure.

[Hogan11]

Well, I'm in of course. I'd like to get some decent seats for the Rockies, so if anyone is interested in that and would like to watch the game with Sass & I, Lemme know.

By decent seats I'm talking lower bowl, usually a row in the double letters under the second deck.

[Meck77]

Well I guess my answer for OF1 is whether or not nut organizes a tailgate. If he wants to host it I'd just assume roll in with a sixer under my arm. If he doesn't then someone has to rock the party and I could probably do it. I'm also in the process of buying a house and several other projects but certainly plan on attending omane weekend!

Hey Check-In on FB! :yayaya:

[Conklin]

I'mma make the trip solo this year...anyone needing to cut down some hotel costs? I can just sleep on a cot/couch/floor. let me know

[Los Broncos]

Tuesday the 2nd half price tickets go on sale, they aren't cheap this year.

What time does the tailgating start for a MNF game?

[broncofan2438]

Just found out Im going. Got hoooooked up on tickets this year. Section 106 Row 33. Cant wait!

What parking lot is the tailgate this year?? Lot C?

[broncofan2438]

Southwest from Burbank to Denver is $370 for two people. Not bad

[DenverBroncosJM]

I think I am going to be at the this game. I didn't make a game the last two seasons and that wont fly this year!

Stubhub has some okay prices maybe ill check ebay too. I have yet to be at an Omane tailgate but Ill make that a priority this year!

[DenverBroncosJM]

Southwest from Burbank to Denver is $370 for two people. Not bad

Thats not bad at all. Im going to check orange county too.

[alkemical]

Dead hookers fly free!

[smalltowngrll]

Got our tickets! Woot. Section 113 row 14 for face value!

Question...Anyone know what the age is that you have to have a ticket for little ones? Under 2 free? or everyone pays?

[Los Broncos]

Got tickets and flights, just need a room.

[Hogan11]

Just a PSA here: Dr. Thunder, Sass & I scored the tickets today.

We're officially in for OM Weekend 2011, see you all there! :thumbs:

[Hogan11]

I have recieved word that The Disco Man will be in the lot this time around as well.

Gotta stop by and give him a "WOOOOO!!!!"

[TailgateNut]

Where are your seats

[RhymesayersDU]

I'll be there bros, beer in hand.

[BMF Bronco]

We are going still, but not sure when we'll be there. Apparently other **** takes priority above something that's been in the works for a year almost. Ugh...

[alkemical]

The veil grows thinnest here

[BMF Bronco]

and so **** changes again, turns out we can't make it at all, so now if anyone knows of anyone else who needs tix, let me know.

[missingnumber7]

Got our tickets! Woot. Section 113 row 14 for face value!

Question...Anyone know what the age is that you have to have a ticket for little ones? Under 2 free? or everyone pays?

Under 2 free, we bought a ticket for our little guy last year and he was 2, the year before for the turkey day game he was 22 months and they didn't even blink an eye for no ticket. If you have to have a ticket for them and they are going to sit on your lap anyway, we just buy a half price from up in the nose bleed and let him sit on our lap.

[smalltowngrll]

Thanks! he'll be 23 months...just under 2. We'll have him in the pack and on our laps. Yeah, that's what we thought, getting a cheap upper ticket and he'd just sit with us!

[broncofan2438]

Anyone need (2) tix? Section 118, Row 20, Seats 3,4

[crawdad]

Are you not going now?

[broncofan2438]

Are you not going now?

I'm still going, just have two extra seats.....long story

[broncofan2438]

Hey TGN: When do gates for Lot C open up for a Monday night game?

[crawdad]

I wish I would have known this before we spent 230 a piece on seats in 127! How much are you asking? PM me with info.

[TailgateNut]

Hey TGN: When do gates for Lot C open up for a Monday night game?

the "book" says 1PM but I think noon.

[missingnumber7]

The Steelers game two years ago they opened between 10 and 11

[Hogan11]

The Steelers game two years ago they opened between 10 and 11

That works for me. Great thing about MNF tailgates, I can actually make the beginning of them Ha!

[crawdad]

Yeah, you might make it out of bed by noon!

[Hogan11]

Yeah, you might make it out of bed by noon!

That happens when you don't crash till 4 AM. I'm not a young man anymore, even though I still look it ;)

[crawdad]

Right! I'll take that for book! I can't stay up that late anymore period!

[broncofan2438]

So.......Lot C??

[crawdad]

Yep, that will be the place. Over by the berm on the west side and near the mid south end.

[broncofan2438]

Yep, that will be the place. Over by the berm on the west side and near the mid south end.

So TGN's spot?

[smalltowngrll]

Sheesh...if we start at 10am...I'm gonna have to find a place to put the kiddo down for a nap! ;) Good thing we are not far from the hotel.

[Hogan11]

Sheesh...if we start at 10am...I'm gonna have to find a place to put the kiddo down for a nap! ;) Good thing we are not far from the hotel.

You left for a bit and took a nap during the last MNF tailgate, unless I'm mistaken :P

[crawdad]

So TGN's spot?

This still has not been confirmed but if I were a betting man, I would bet on it!

[canadianbroncosfan]

Okay maybe you guys/gals could help me out. I've posted questions on Broncos Country and BroncosForum and have yet to get a single response. I happen to be coming down for my first game for the season opener on September 12th against the Raiders. I come from Edmonton, AB, Canada and have never been to Denver, let alone a Broncos game. Maybe you could help me out with some things, like what is the best thing to do before the game. If one wants to go just take in the atmosphere of tailgating, what rules apply? Can anyone just go and walk around? What's the deal with Broncos Barn? Where is a good place to go after the game to party the night away?

I see a bunch of you are going to the Rockies game on the Sunday before and my girlfriend and I will also be there! Reading the threads, you seem to be a more personable bunch so please, please help a foreign die hard fan out!!

Cheers

[andre]

guys , i'm in , GO BRONCOS!!! do you guys get an idea where can i see the live online.

[broncofan2438]

Rockies game for me Friday night. Being downtown Sunday at a bar watching opening NFL sounds better than Rockies game

[crawdad]

Maybe you could help me out with some things, like what is the best thing to do before the game. We usually Tailgate in Lot C. Starting at about noon for Monday night! If one wants to go just take in the atmosphere of tailgating, what rules apply? Just be pleasant and polite. Many will welcome you to partake of their fare! Can anyone just go and walk around? You may walk around all the parking lot and go inside the Team Store at Mile High What's the deal with Broncos Barn? Broncos Barn is a huge Tailgate Party that you pay to enter, I am not sure how much $5-10 per person. Where is a good place to go after the game to party the night away? Don't really know about this one since it is Monday night game and some will have to work the next day.

I see a bunch of you are going to the Rockies game on the Sunday before and my girlfriend and I will also be there! Yes a lot of us are going to the Rockies Game. PM me and I will give you my cell number and you can call me on that day!Reading the threads, you seem to be a more personable bunch so please, please help a foreign die hard fan out!!

Cheers


See bold answers above.

[Dr. Thunder]

So TGN's spot?

Are you bringing your Raider friends? Hilarious!

[Los Broncos]

Just booked the room at the Ramada lol.

[broncocalijohn]

Just booked the room at the Ramada lol.

Ramada by the stadium or over off of Quebec? I am surprised you arent sticking with your 4th year in a row and go to Knights Inn for late night drug binge parties on the 2nd floor.

[broncofan2438]

Are you bringing your Raider friends? Hilarious!

No, they are in jail

[Los Broncos]

On Zuni, it's shady but cheap.

Are you in for SD this year?

[broncocalijohn]

On Zuni, it's shady but cheap.

Yep and hope we have more peeps this time around. I hear we are a tad better this year!

What Crawdad said is all good responses.

I'll add, that if you want to join in our festivities, just keep an eye out on this thread and you'll get all the information that we end up planning. Probably not super extravegant, but we'll probably meet in a certain place for tailgating, we'll probably meet up after the game and I know some are planning on meeting up on Saturday night! There is also a Rockies game on Saturday afternoon, too. After all, it is ORANGEMANE weekend and there will be a ton of us there. I can count 20 just off the top of my head!

Typically if we crash on a local's tailgate (typically invited, of course) if we can't contribute in the way of food, we'll throw in a little cash to help out! We are totally blessed to have locals that welcome us into their tailgates!

Oh, and don't miss Stampede (drum line that cruises throughout the lot prior to the game! They get everyone all fired up and ready to cheer on the team!

Look forward to seeing you there!

[Dr. Thunder]

Yep and hope we have more peeps this time around. I hear we are a tad better this year!

Adam and John, lets talk about SD during OMANE weekend.

[Los Broncos]

Adam and John, lets talk about SD during OMANE weekend.

Lets talk about it over a beer or two.

[crawdad]

An excellent plan!

[crawdad]

Adam and John, lets talk about SD during OMANE weekend.

Cliff, John backed out of Denver trip. Seems he wussed out because of his knee or something. What a wimp!

[Hogan11]

Cliff, John backed out of Denver trip. Seems he wussed out because of his knee or something. What a wimp!

Well.....he is an Angels fan afterall. Hilarious!

[broncofan2438]

Cliff, John backed out of Denver trip. Seems he wussed out because of his knee or something. What a wimp!

He's too busy bowling and kneeling by cars that aren't his

[crawdad]

His bowling trophy says it all!

[broncocalijohn]

Cliff, John backed out of Denver trip. Seems he wussed out because of his knee or something. What a wimp!

I am one, big puss. Add in broke as hell too.
My tickets (2) in South Stands are on Ticket Exchange. If anyone wants to buy them, I will take 10% off the price. This will either pay for my SD tickets or go to credit for next season.

He's too busy bowling and kneeling by cars that aren't his

No bowling cause it can twist my bad knee and kneeling by cars that are not mine makes me look like I do own it and I am really cool. BTW, my knee brace is showing in the avatar.

[crawdad]

It will be okay, we will miss you but the party will go on!

[Los Broncos]

It will be okay, we will miss you but the party will go on!

Are you in for SD this year old man.

[crawdad]

I kind of doubt it, kid! Really busy at work but we will see!

[Hogan11]

Would everyone who's interested in going to the Rox game on the 11th be cool with a walk up for tickets? It's probably the best way given that we don't have a fixed number that are going and there's no way imaginable that it'd be sold out.........whatcha think?

[crawdad]

I like to think you over paid for your tickets two years ago and Adam and I got tickets near the dugout for about $10 a pop. I think your words was, "**** Stubhub next year!" or something like that. What we saved paid for our Brazilian BBQ.......... I am going to miss that part too.

[smalltowngrll]

We got tickets super cheap from scalpers outside once the game started! Something like $10 or less. I think it was in the 1st or 2nd inning, too. If we get into town early enough, we'll be there. Right now, I don't know. I have Sassy's number, so I'll call or text her with our details probably Friday or Sat morning.

Two weeks from today! :) (We actually leave on Saturday!) ;D

[crawdad]

Looking forward to seeing you and Mr. STG and Tucker!!

[TailgateNut]

Hey, what's the issue with the website. been trying to post a new thread and I keep getting an internal website error? Anyone else have problems?

Yes, I tried to post one asking who's going to the Bungles game and it took a poop every time.

Looking forward to seeing you and Mr. STG and Tucker!!

Looking forward to seeing you, too!

Tucker is ready for some Football! Has his ear protectors...and they are BLUE! (sorry for the fuzzy pic)

Cute kid.

[crawdad]

Kinda resembles his mother! :):):)

[TailgateNut]

here's our newest family member. I tried to talk my son into letting me take him to his game on opening night, but he refusedROFL!

Can't believe I'm a grandpa. YIKES!;)

[crawdad]

Well, Grandpa, that is a good looking kid.

[TailgateNut]

Well, Grandpa, that is a good looking kid.


Only 2 hrs old and he was already asking "Who is this "Tebow" you speak of?"ROFL! JK.

You should have seen the look on Chris' face when I told him I was going to tke him to the Monday nighter.ROFL!

[crawdad]

I bet! Well, congratulations to all of you. A child and a grandchild are certainly a blessing.

[BMF Bronco]

Hey all, since I cannot make it I have two very good friends that are going in my place and I would like to ask if they can hang with you at the tailgate and stuff. In addition, the idiot friend of mine hasn't gotten a room yet, anyone know of any close places?

[Hogan11]

You're correct, I remember that now. It's been generally decided that the walk up is the ticket plan if it happens.

[Hogan11]

Kinda resembles his mother! :):):)

He does!

[Hogan11]

Well, Grandpa, that is a good looking kid.

Indeed, Congrats TGN! :thumbsup:

Knights Inn. They can have the room that is in mourning. The Adam Ramblin Bronco Room will not be used this year. Right down the street from the stadium.

[Los Broncos]

We rented a car this year, want to on a hike Saturday.

Where are we meeting Saturday night?

Go up to Black Hawk. Idaho Springs too is a great spot with a brewery.

The knight in was roped off with police tape 2-3 nights ago. A 26 year old man was shot to death on the premises.

I'm not surprised, we were always told that we're in kinda a rough area around that place & the VQ.

[crawdad]

Go up to Black Hawk. Idaho Springs too is a great spot with a brewery.

Of course, John, the only reason you go to Black Hawk is to gamble.

Black Hawk is a tourist trap. I would go further up around Leadville to go hiking. Your best bet is Rocky Mountain National Park and Trail Ridge road.

Adam, look here and you will find that there are hundreds of hiking trails.

Go Hogs!

Where are we meeting Saturday night?

The closest hike to Denver proper is probably St. Mary's Glacier but Devils Thumb near Nederland/Eldora is nice. http://www.hikingincolorado.org/devi.html

[Hogan11]

Go Hogs!

They don't even play the Pigs this year...for the first time in three years, we won't be at odds on Saturday.

I know buddy, just givin' you a hard time because of your avy!

Oh I know....as you know I'll be showing up @ the VQ in my UGA gear.

Same as it ever was :welcome:

I will be there.

[TailgateNut]

There's a 9-11 rally on sunday if anyone is interested.

http://www.911freedomrally.org/

I may join the memorial ride and if I do, I may jettison the tailgater due to the limited amount of time to prep..

Have to think about it.

Idaho Springs is an awesome place to go touristy or not. I am also trying to keep Adam's mind off of the wild life which would be remind him of his lost backback buddy.

The knight in was roped off with police tape 2-3 nights ago. A 26 year old man was shot to death on the premises.

Oh, just another night at the Knight's Inn.

[crawdad]

Believe me I am not talking bad about Idaho Springs! I like it but not much hiking trails there. Did you say Idaho? No, you da ho!

Idaho Spring is a pit. I'd take Evergreen, Pine, Buffalo creek or Deckers anyday over that truck stop anyday

[crawdad]

Well, it would not be my choice but it is a nice place. Used to have a good pizza joint there!

[broncobum6162]

Well I guess my answer for OF1 is whether or not nut organizes a tailgate. If he wants to host it I'd just assume roll in with a sixer under my arm. If he doesn't then someone has to rock the party and I could probably do it. I'm also in the process of buying a house and several other projects but certainly plan on attending omane weekend!

I'll be at the Chicago game. U up for that one too?

[broncofan2438]

Pep rally on Friday for those that are there. http://www.denverbroncos.com/fans/back-to-football.html

Start the party early folks

[12thMan]

SWEET!!!
Looking forward to seeing old friends and the new additions!!
Dont forget its ORANGE MONDAY for this one.

[crawdad]

4 more days and I will be in Denver!

[Hogan11]

4 more days and I will be in Denver!

I hit town Sat about 5 PM

[missingnumber7]

We'll be there sat afternoon sometime, depending on weather I ref friday night or not and how far we drive or where we stay.

[Blueflame]

Much as I was hoping we could be there (especially since it's a Monday night game and against the Raiders), it doesn't look like there's any way Mr. Blue can do that many hours on the road this year. He is getting around somewhat better but we still have to be really careful that he doesn't overdo things or it's entirely possible that he might end up back at Square One (in so much pain he can barely move at all). Guess all of you will have to make extra noise to make up for our absence... and drink a beer or two at the tailgate for us.

[Sassy]

Awww sorry to hear that Blue. No worries on the beer part and the cheering part! Hope Mr. Blue is on the way to recovery soon! You guys will definitely be missed. It's been forever! NEXT YEAR FOR SURE!

[Sassy]

You should have seen the look on Chris' face when I told him I was going to tke him to the Monday nighter.ROFL!

ROFL! Congrats Leo!

[Sassy]

Hey all, since I cannot make it I have two very good friends that are going in my place and I would like to ask if they can hang with you at the tailgate and stuff. In addition, the idiot friend of mine hasn't gotten a room yet, anyone know of any close places?
no room is crazy...they are going to be insane $$$ if available!

[Sassy]

I will be there.

Mike...do you want our parking spot at the VQ?

[Sassy]

We need to figure out some sort of tailgate plan if Meck or TGN are going to bail on that deal :(

[Blueflame]

I know... this has been such a tough year for him health-wise... and for me worry-wise. It truly does suck to miss what I know is gonna be an epic party. :(

Yeah... next year for sure... ^5

[Meck77]

I was hoping I could make it but I'm knee deep in renovating a home and building a couple businesses right now. Darn inspectors are jerk offs and slow down my plans.

Yep, my son arrives around 18:30 so I will pick you up at that time! Sassy will prolly be with me!

[TailgateNut]

Sorry, when I finally had the time to post this update earlier today I didn't even notice I put in in the wrong thread.:clown:

To give you guys an update. I definately want to make it, 'cause there's nothin' better than the annual Raider Hater Bash but at this point a project I'm doing is demanding my presence at all times. Very dangerous work and very critical timing. The water supply of a city depends on the completion of this portion of the contract by a set date. I will be burning the "midnight oil" for several days until I can pull away. If I end up working through Sunday or into monday, I will not be tailgating due to the limited amount of time to prep (I generally set aside full day to prep for this many folks. Shopping, stocking and prepping food and supplies takes time and effort). If this happens I most likely will just show up to watch the game. If I do finish late saturday or early sunday I'll try to do it. Everything is an unknown at this point, but based on our progress and things we encountered today, things aren't looking good.

I'll try to let you know, as soon as I know.

[missingnumber7]

Dude if all you did was show up with the grill I know that this guy would love just brats or burgers for a tailgate without all the catering that you do.

[TailgateNut]

My grandfather and dad both told me " If something's worth doing, it's worth doing right".


If I miss this it would be the first time I didn't have a Raider Tailgate in over 16 years.

Play-off games aside, the this is the game I look forward to each year. ****ing Raiders, ****ing Al Davis and ****ing Raiderfan.

[Sassy]

Whatever you end up doing Leo...stay safe! And we hope to see you there!

[Sassy]

Yep, my son arrives around 18:30 so I will pick you up at that time! Sassy will prolly be with me!

I can do that! I will call you tomorrow...saw your message on my phone and texted you back....I get to Denver at 1:00 pm and Ray gets in at 5:10 pm.

[Hogan11]

Yep...TGN count us in if it's possible and you need help!

By all means!

If TGN can't make it, we can just do what we did in AZ last year.....it'll get done, no worries. :thumbs:

[broncofan2438]

Went to the pep rally last night. That was awesome. Got autographs from doom, Moore, meck, wright and cheerleaders. Starting this weekend out right
Still nothing on tailgating uh? Let's go

[TailgateNut]

Well Bronco fans and Timbownites, things are looking better. If a few piping tests pass in the morning I'll be able to still get this together for monday.
I will have quite a bit of shopping and prepping to do, but it's just another challenge. I'll put together a menu and list in the AM.

It looks like there's quite a crowd (16-24) by my estimates are interested in gathering at this years "Raider Hater Bash". To make things simpler I can buy all the supplies and groceries and folks can chip in or I can post a list of supplies and go through the nightmare of trying to manage who's getting what and what to do with 57 bags of chips after the game.;D

As most of you know, I don't "indulge", so I ask that you definately BYOB (unless it's unavoidable, try to avoid bringing glass containers, cause the yellow and blue coats will bitch). I may have one cooler for folks to throw their **** in and I had one of my friends who may bring a keg. (Yuck;))


Let me know who is in and WTF time you plan on dragging your lazy asses down to the lot. There's "On time" (2-3PM I'll help set up), Later 4-5 (I'm too lazy to help set up, I'm just here for the beer) or too damn late 6-7 or after (I'm just here to wash the dishes and help put **** away)

I also ask that the Jhizz's, Dramas, OABBs, Discos, leprechauns and their type of ilk find another planet 'cause I've had a tough week and I wouldn't be opposed to "throatpunching" some asshole who desperately needs some adjustment......

Sorry 'bout that rant but at least I'm not bringing a gun to a "throatpunching";D


Anywhoo, cross the fingers that all goes well in the morning and we'll do this!

[TailgateNut]

Oh, and if you're wearing a #15 jersey, the name on the back should read "Briscoe" or "Turner", not some loser name like "Marshall" or "Tebow".


Just sayin'

[broncofan2438]

I plan on being there as soon as gates open. There will be 8 including me there. We will gladly pitch $$ unless you say otherwise

It's not the number as much as "no frigging notice".

I knew he was attending, and you and your kid, and Kerri and hubby and kid, and Miles and Trish (who are always there), Ryan and Sarah,and the locals..........most people give me a rough idea.

This WILL be my last open Tailgate. I'm going back to my ROOTS. Close friends and locals. At least I know what to plan for on a week to week basis.

....and no it's not just this thingy, it's been coming...

See ya tomorrow.

[broncofan2438]

We don't have to make it since it seems to be a problem. We can bring our own food or give $$. Not trying to be difficult. I wasn't even sure you were having anything from the way you were talking

Nothing like you and 7 Raiders fans there to make the tailgate a joyous affair. Better for you to go to Lot J and buy from Brenda's Burritos from the corner and a 18 pack under your arm. 8 more people where no one knows or wants the other 7..... make that the whole 8! ROFL!
Well, be smart a dump your posse at the hotel. Hope you all have fun. I read up on the thread and seems like tradition is alive and well.

Another great gathering of the OM, although the game wasn't quite as great, to say the least. (but I'll leave that for the 2000 Orton sucks threads).

I'm sure most of the Campers who were before and after the game are still all comfy and cozy in their beds with some nursing some serious hangovers once they wake. I'm so tired that I could probable slep on a rock. By the time I got home and did the unavoidable "clean up" it was 2 in the AM, and I had to hit the road at 5 this morning (absolutely brutal).

Anywhoo-it was good to see all of you again and some for the first time.

STG- I think you left Sarahs' gift for Tucker in the RV. Just get some info to me and I'll get it out to you in the mail. Nice to meet your Hubby and the kiddo.

Crawdad, damn you and Cody can polish of some liquor. I remember, but don't miss those days. Glad I was able to meet Cody and see Terri again.

Sassy and Ray, I agree, the only road game which makes sense to me would be Nawlins next year. Miami doesn't appeal to me.

Sarah - get some of those pics posted, you were a busy photographer yesterday. Ryan- Time to practice throwing tailgaters.

Adam and Fanny- nice to see ya again

Cliff-glad you could make it.

Irish and Wife- a pleasant surprise. Much less Scotch, make a mo betta party.

BF and crew- sorry about the initial rant. Ultimately I couldn't give enough food away. Hell, you and the crew didn't even get any of the second course.

Miles and Trish (the regulars). Miles- see comment to Ryan.

The Canadian folks. Good to see Bronco Country knows no borders.

As always, it was fun while it lasted. Time to pass the torch.

LOL! So we are worse than last year? I highly doubt that. We hit rock bottom last year including a 59 to 14 loss at home to the same Raiders. Let me know when 20 to 23 loss is considered worse.

Never said that

I personally do not "Rate" loses...They all suck the same. But I have to add it is worse when it is the season opener, at home vs the RAIDERS.

I never said we hit bottom or not, What I said is that we are not BETTER than last year at this point... Huge difference

Well 1st of all that is not me in the photo or doing the "Respect" promo at the games. I still go to almost every game, still get there as soon as the lot opens, still bleed orange & blue. The only difference is now I'm not wearing a sportcoat & wig. As a full time Dad now I just decided to hang up the Disco character for a while. On Monday I had a few Mane members tell me that TG was going to "Throatpunch" me if I went to his tailgate. After reading the post I felt like I needed to respond, then I read more stories about Super Bowl XXXIII and a jump start. Many folks have asked me over the last few years why I'm not on the Mane as much. I think this explains it. Truth is I park very close to TG in the lot every game, I don't even think the guy knows my real name. I would be more than willing to talk about this "Throatpunch" thing in person as gentlemen. I have meet many of you guys on the road over the years and have had a ball, sorry that there are a few of you out there that think I'm a "Dick"

I think you need to read the thread. Only TGN was having a problem with you concerning helping someone jump their car. Concerning SB 32, we (I) was discussing the Leprechaun. Were you in Miami?

I read it, and I understand what you were saying about the SB. My point was that we are on here talking about why we don't like people. Look at what I posted, I talked about a jump start. Ironically that thread was about a pic of someone else. I was at SB XXXIII in the front row and on the jumbo-tron. What was my favorite part of SB XXXIII...........the Broncos winning

Must be a case of Alzheimers.

Years ago while we were waiting in line to get into the lot I asked you to give me a jump ( you were right behind me in line ). You're response: "sorry, I don't have time".
I met you back when you and Steve first started hanging out and tailgating, I tried to talk to you after Steve introduced me to you but you were too hung up on your "Disco WOO" persona to give anyone who didn't have a camera focused on you the time of day. So, on top of being a self-absorbed Dick like the Leprechaun, you also obviously don't have the time to help a fellow Bronco fan in need.
Maybe a bit of age, having and taking care of a child and dropping the goofy outfit has changed your personality, but I can't seem to grasp how anyone will leave someone stranded, especially someone the had met/knew (or maybe your head was just as large as your wig and to associate with a commoner was below you.)

Regardless, lessons are learned and some people are better ignored.

What is there to talk about, and what would it accomplish? My friends don't treat others that way and I come up on anyone needing a hand, I'll help. It's just the right thing to do.

Not my loss, just a lesson learned.

Might not be anything to talk about, I'm just trying to take the high road here. I don't remember this and I would like to get some details from that day. I don't think it's right to not help someone out who needs a jump start, just because you don't have time. It's also not right to say that you are going to punch someone in the throat if they for some reason show up to a tailgate party that they have never attended. Then follow that up with some people are better ignored. All I'm trying to do is the right thing, that's why I didn't show up over there on Monday and ask what the problem was. Nor did I follow any of this up on the Mane with this "I will kick your ass" nonsense. Again, just trying to get to the bottom of something that I don't understand.

Another great gathering of the OM, although the game wasn't quite as great, to say the least. (but I'll leave that for the 2000 Orton sucks threads).

I'm sure most of the Campers who were before and after the game are still all comfy and cozy in their beds with some nursing some serious hangovers once they wake. I'm so tired that I could probable slep on a rock. By the time I got home and did the unavoidable "clean up" it was 2 in the AM, and I had to hit the road at 5 this morning (absolutely brutal).

Anywhoo-it was good to see all of you again and some for the first time.

STG- I think you left Sarahs' gift for Tucker in the RV. Just get some info to me and I'll get it out to you in the mail. Nice to meet your Hubby and the kiddo.

Crawdad, damn you and Cody can polish of some liquor. I remember, but don't miss those days. Glad I was able to meet Cody and see Terri again.

Sassy and Ray, I agree, the only road game which makes sense to me would be Nawlins next year. Miami doesn't appeal to me.

Sarah - get some of those pics posted, you were a busy photographer yesterday. Ryan- Time to practice throwing tailgaters.

Adam and Fanny- nice to see ya again

Cliff-glad you could make it.

Irish and Wife- a pleasant surprise. Much less Scotch, make a mo betta party.

BF and crew- sorry about the initial rant. Ultimately I couldn't give enough food away. Hell, you and the crew didn't even get any of the second course.

Miles and Trish (the regulars). Miles- see comment to Ryan.

The Canadian folks. Good to see Bronco Country knows no borders.

As always, it was fun while it lasted. Time to pass the torch.

Thanks for the hospitality and great food.

Allow me to refresh your memory.

We were in line waiting to get into lot C for hours. (I believe it was the season right after you and Meck "parted ways" (for lack of better terms) You were parked behind me. (between Brooklyns and the 3-way intersection) When it was about 10-15 minutes before the gate was scheduled to open I tried to start the RV and it wouldn't start. I grabbed the jumper cables from under the seat and hooked them up and walked back and asked you for a jump. Your response was "we don't have time". I went back to my RV and fiddled around with the ignition for a few minutes and when the line finally started to move you just veered around and headed in. About ten vehicles passed us just like you did and then one stopped to give us a jump. I "wasted" about 2 minutes of that DECENT persons time.

Remember now?


Over the years I have met many, if not most of the regular die-hard tailgaters in C-lot and a few other lots but I have never said another word to you even though some of your "crew" stops by every week, and they are always welcome.

[Disco Man]

Sorry, don't remember that. If that did happen, it was more than wrong. You have every right to be mad, no doubt. Why don't we meet up in Lot C and talk about it with some respect. Otherwise I could get out the wig, drink a bottle of Yukon Jack, kiss all the girls, do a TV promo or two, fall out of the stands, get banned from Giants Stadium for life, tell everyone that Space Mountain is open for business, then come over to your RV and ask what you meant by saying you were going to "Throatpunch" Disco.........................

the second would be preferred.


.....and no, you weren't drunk. This was in the early AM. You know the 2:05 game.

Naw. It's not worth it. I just make notes and don't associate with fake people. It does sound like since you've (your wife) had a daughter you veered away from being an attention whore (see Leprechaun) and maybe even realize that you put your pants on one leg at a time like the rest of us.


BTW:Ted always stops over. Hopefully he doesn't feel that my comments were directed at him, cause I didn't see him last monday.
Pass it on!

Adios.

[Dr. Thunder]

Made it home and finally have the chance to say the following:


TGN - Thank you so much for taking the extra time from your hectic work week to get things setup. I really haven't gotten to speak with you much but after meeting Lisa and Nicole last year in Phoenix, your family is what makes these tailgates so special.


Sassy and Hogan - It is always fun to hang out with you two and lets do Vegas or LA soon!


Miles and Trish - Thanks for the ride to the hotel and let me see what I can do about Miami.


Ryan and Sarah - Great seeing you both and allowing me to be your photographer on a few photos.


Adam and Fanny - Always nice to see the peope from the OC! Lets talk Miami or SD!


Crawdad and Family - Should have worn my Hard Rock shirt from Penang. Next time, I promise! Good to have met your family and give me a shout if you head out to Moorpark.


STG Girl - I never got a chance to introduce myself but you are the first person I met on this board 4 years ago and I finally got to see who you were. (I used to be Broncos Fan116)


Canadian Bronco Fan - Nice meeting you and your gf. Broncos eh?


BF2438 - Thanks for the money you owe!

[crawdad]

An open letter to all who participated (partied) at TGN's Tailgate:

I love you all! It is great to be with friends and renew our friendship at least once a year. You all are great people and my only problem is it is never long enough!

STG and Aaron - Great to see you again Kerri and good to meet Aaron. Tucker is the bomb! He is such a cutie!

Trisha...I am thinking of you and my little nephew! Oh, you too, Miles , you have become such a good friend!

Canadian Bronco Fan and Candace - It was great to meet you and you guys are good people from up north, eh?

Ryan and Sarah - Always good to see good people and great fans!

Adam and Fanny - You guys are the bomb, glad you had a good time at Boulder Falls.

Hogan and Sassy - it is always fun to hang with you guys and look froward to it every year!

Cliff - I will always remember Penang and I am happy to know you!

BF2438 - It was good to see you again and I am glad that you made things right. You are a cool dude and your friends were very nice. It was nice meeting Jasmine! (right?)

TGN, Lisa and Nicci...I just can't say enough to thank you for your hospitality. Our friendship is important and I really love you guys and what you do! Cody had a blast and wants to come again. You guys will always be in my thoughts because I feel like I am coming back home when I visit with you in Colorado.

By the way I saw Bobby (Raidersuck) in the stands. He sat one row behind us!

Good to finally hear form you. Glad you made it home safe. As I may have mentioned several times to a few of you, this was my last hoorah. I'm prepping the Rv to get it ready to sell and will be selling my tix. I have given up on my partnership in the business. I will be venturing off to find something which actually involves a profit. Been taking losses for several years and the buffers are decimated. My current projects will be complete (barring problems) around the end of this month and I will, at that time consider going back into high end remodel and build outs or heading overseas to continue in my current line of work. Had some nibbles from Black and Veatch and JA Jones to work in Dubai. I may do that until this country gets' it together again. I can't keep paying to stay in business. Been a long time coming. Tailgating has been fun, and I've met many wonderful people over the years, but it takes a toll (many physical, but also time and money.

I may go to a few more games this year, but will sell most of the tickets for the season. Time for someone else to carry the torch.

I'm out!

I heard you on that, my friend! We have been doing that for years and finally we are having a stellar year! I will miss the TG but I know where you live, at least for now.

Love ya Brother!

So... enough small talk. Let's get to the important stuff. Who took pictures? LOL I've seen some of Sassy's pics on facebook, but wanna see more! ;D

Blue, I didn't take very many myself but Sarah took alot. Are you friends with her on FB? I will post mine tomorrow!

[Hogan11]

Wow. I finally get home to offer up some kudos (sans blackberry) and see a lot has gone on.

Anyways, if that was indeed the end, you went out in fine style Leo. I could never fully express my appreciation for putting up the "out of towners" over the last few seasons. Although we have cash, many times we have no base, so thanks for providing that (along with the awesome food) over the years and best of luck to you and yours in whatever endevor you choose to do.

Your loss is huge, but I'm sure we'll adjust and manage........somehow. If something else does get going and you and yours are still around, here's hoping you stop by.

Cliff, Ryan, Sarah, Adam, Fanny, Mike, Terry, Miles & Trish....I know I can also speak for Sass when I say it's always good to see and hang out with "The Crew" again. You guys make OMW an event we look forward to each and every year. It was also cool to see STG again and meet Aaron & Tucker.....cool guys. Here's hoping we see your Clan again in the future.

Also wanna say it was great meeting Irish McStout, CanadianBroncoFan & Candance and Mike's son Cody. I know we didn't get to talk all that much, but here's hoping to see you all again at a future Broncos game.

It was also great to see the Woodman, Disco, 12th Man & Ted again as well, sorry we didn't stop back by after the game...that one was on me due to headache issues I had been dealing with all weekend.

Sorry we couldn't get together Nate, but it was good to see you again at Rodizios....and speaking of Rodizios, if you're out there anywhere Melissa....I WANT A REMATCH!!! Ha! It was great to see you again after all these years, here's hoping we can catch up with ya next time as well.

Thanks again to everyone for everything. See ya in 2012.

[canadianbroncosfan]

EEEEEHHHHHH! All these eh comments eh? Ha-ha thanks to all, it was great to meet all of you! TGN I'm sorry that our first was your last but again the hospitality was very appreciated! Can't wait to meet up with all of you again in the future!

[Blueflame]

Blue, I didn't take very many myself but Sarah took alot. Are you friends with her on FB? I will post mine tomorrow!

Not sure I've had the pleasure of meeting Sarah yet. Looking forward to seeing your pics. Sure hope we can make it next year. :thumbs:

No offense buddy! It is just the Canadian thing, right? See you again sometime at a Broncos Game!

[smalltowngrll]

Well, we just rolled in this evening! It was soooo great to see so many old faces...(Crawdad aka MIKE...I swear I'll get your real name right! ;D My husband gives me a hard time about that huge flaw I have all the time!)

Ray & Shelly...Yes, would love love to see you guys more often! And the offer is still open if either or both of you guys ever make it out this way!

Dr. (formerly 116) bummer that I didn't see you! Next time...there WILL be a next time!

TGN, I think we got it, but I'll PM you! Thanks for the Tailgate spot you so warmly shared! I can only imagine the toll it takes to put together a tailgate! You'll be missed, but hopefully you'll be able to hang out as a 'non host' once in a blue moon!

Aaron and Tucker truly had such a good time and thanks for making them feel so welcome and part of the gang! Tucker loves his Broncos gear and is ready for game day every week! Maybe we'll make it out to another game this year?! We'll see!

We've been on the road for 2 weeks and it definitely feels good to be home!

My husband does seem to be getting stronger now... he's been able to play some golf and plans to do water aerobics to maintain his fitness during the winter. Hopefully he'll be back to normal soon. We were getting worried 'cause he had 2 cortisone shots and they can only give him 3... and the next step after that is surgery (very scary word... lol).

Thanks! (avy) Found the graphic and thought she'd look great in orange n' blue. :D
