The Gumps are coming to town…

Now make sure you brush up on your monosyllabic words, because we may have some visitors from that strange land that is Alabama visiting us this weekend.  While we get to wait until the evening for the bloodshed, at least we get a hefty dose of tailgating since we get another night game!  As always, please let us know how many people you are bringing, that way we can appropriately plan the quantity of food.  So far we’re doing a great job on fundraising, and we look forward to being able to provide some great scholarships for Aggies next year.  We’re still trying to target collecting $20 per person each week to achieve that goal, and please talk to one of the board memebers if you’re interested in volunteering for a committee or want to be more active in the administration of the tailgate!  If you have any special requests, please let us know and we will try to accomodate.

In honor of our Bama friends and the many ways you can prepare shrimp/seafood, we’re going to do a fish fry this weekend.  We will target serving food around 2:30, but you can’t drink all day if you don’t start early, so come out early and enjoy the good company.

Fish Fry Menu:

  • Fried Catfish
  • Fried Shrimp
  • Hushpuppies
  • French Fries
  • Mac & Cheese

Cock a Doodle Doo!

The South Carolina Gamecocks are coming to town! Game time is 6:30 PM, so come out and hang all day. We will be serving gamecock wings around 2 PM. As usual, if you see something missing from the menu or if you have a specific recipe you’d like us to serve for something on the list, please let us know and we will work to make it happen. Also, if you are planning on attending, please let us know by commenting, texting, or emailing so we can make sure to have enough food available.

As we’ve mentioned before, the Dead MBA Society is now a 501(c)3 organization, with all proceeds raised this fall going to scholarships for Aggie students. Being our first year, this will be a learning opportunity, but we would like to try to set an initial membership goal of least $20 per person each week to help fund the scholarship goal!  This gives you access to the tailgate and opportunity to participate in the operations of the organization.  If you’re interested in volunteering to help with fundraising, marketing, scholarship applications, or anything else, please talk to one of the board members or email info@deadmbatailgate.com.  We really want to raise as much as possible this year so that we can use our shared passion for all things A&M to directly impact some great young people’s lives.

Block Your Calendars – 2018 Road Game Tailgate!

The 2018 Schedule was just released, and in 2018 our road game tailgate will be to Starkvegas!  Be sure to block the weekend of October 27th off on your calendar so that you can join us.

It doesn’t look like hotels are available yet, so be sure to keep an eye out because there are not many options available and I’m sure they’ll fill up fast once they are open for bookings.

Wake up early and eat some Cajun breakfast!

We all know 11am games aren’t the best thing in the world, but it at least gives us a chance to relax after the Aggies disappoint us.  As per our usual 11am gameday routine, we’ll have breakfast ready, hopefully around 9, then everyone can come back to the tailgate to watch some afternoon football, and we’ll have a light lunch.  We had a great turnout last week, and made some great progress toward stocking our scholarship fund, but let’s keep the momentum going!  We’re still trying to raise $20 per person per week to feed into the scholarship.  Again, if you’re interested in volunteering to help with fundraising, marketing, scholarship applications, or anything else, please talk to one of the board members or email info@deadmbatailgate.com.  We’re learning how this will work, but there is definitely a huge opportunity to do some good for these Aggie kids.
