BTHO the (other) Aggies!

Get ready for our final tune-up tailgate before the real rivalry week returns with higher stakes than ever. It’s the Texas A&M Aggies taking on the New Mexico State Aggies in the Aggies vs. Aggies Showdown! It’s not just the game—it’s a tailgate you won’t want to miss. We’re turning up the heat with an old-fashioned cookout that’ll make your taste buds dance!

Join us this Saturday for a day of fun, food, and fantastic company. Our tailgate will feature mouth-watering burgers and chicken. Who knows, we might throw a few surprises on the grill as well. The tailgate will be up and running by 9 AM with College Gameday showcased until the games start. We should have lunch served around 3 PM. As always, there will be plenty of food to go around!

This is also about celebrating our community and supporting a cause close to our hearts. This year, the Dead MBA Society awarded $3,500 in scholarships to students who share a passion for Texas A&M athletics. With your support at this tailgate fundraiser, we’re aiming to surpass that amount for next year. Your attendance and contributions play a crucial role in empowering the next generation of Aggie leaders and athletes.

We’re thrilled about the people, the purpose, and the game this weekend. Come for the food, stay for the fun, and let’s make it a day to remember! Gig ’em! 🍔🍗🥳 #AggiesTailgate #GigEm #TailgateFun #DEADMBA

Start Early, Stay Late, and Give Back

We may not have pulled off the win against a top 10 team with one of the toughest defenses we’ve faced all year, but the tailgate and the campus atmosphere were definitely a victory!

Next up is an 11:45 AM kickoff with a Louisiana twist, y’all! As we get ready to face McNeese State, let’s turn up the heat both on and off the field. Expect a tailgate menu that’ll make your taste buds dance faster than a gator on a hot tin roof. Come out early, grab some breakfast, and get fired up for the game! And don’t rush off—stick around afterward, let the traffic clear, and catch the afternoon games with us. We’ll be in full tailgate mode by 9 AM!

As always, we encourage everyone to donate to our tailgate’s scholarship fund and give back to the next generation. In case you missed it, we recently awarded $3,500 in scholarships to 7 deserving Ags, many of whom are planning to stop by to say hello and thank you to our group. So come early, stay late, and show your support for the Dead MBA Society’s scholarship fund.

Road Game Planning!

While the football season is months away, it is time to start planning the Road Game trip to Knoxville!

We have a couple of options to help our tailgate members make the trip that much easier! This is going to be a popular road game destination as it is one of the last SEC teams that we have had the opportunity to visit.

Our very own Ann Taylor (Storybook Trips by Ann) has arranged a block of rooms in Downtown Knoxville. The hotel is the Courtyard Marriott Downtown, and the costs is $599/night + tax. The deposit is one night’s stay. To reserve your room as part of the block, email Ann at ann.taylor@storybooktrips.com. Hurry, because once these rooms are gone, they’re gone. Last day to reserve a spot is May 30th, unless they book up faster.

We also have a couple blocks of tickets to the game available. To reserve your tickets, email Warren at neerraw@gmail.com. Ticket prices are $125 each, and exact seating will be determined later once tickets are received. These tickets are in the 12th Man Foundation allotment, and more importantly, with your friends of the Dead MBA Tailgate. As with the hotel rooms, these are first come, first served, so when these are gone, they’re gone!
