The Browns Looked Like a Professional Football Squadron

Doesn't Larry look like a badass? Yes. He does. And so did the Browns tonight. In a game that must have been fixed, the Cleveland Browns manhandled the world champion New York Giants on Monday Night Football. Hopefully we'll get to see that level of play from our team again in the next 10 years. We'll see.

We were lucky to find a spot in the muni lot, which was interesting considering it was a work day. We were not lucky enough to find adequate room to setup The Device, though. But, that didn't hinder our fun. Speaking of fun, this was one of those rare occasions where the game was more fun than the tailgating. I like those games.

I'm not sure why this picture was taken. Looking at the table, I suspect we were getting ready to enjoy some tequila.


This dude was obsessed with the "turkey dick". Poor guy.


Larry makes this Hummer look cool.


Proud driver of a pimped out, orange Hummer.


I would not drive around the muni lot like that.


This chick had inside information of K2's "illness".


Not really ready for this picture.


This is what happens when you don't setup The Device.

Romeo Math: 3+3=10

By now everyone knows what happened in this game, and a lot of theories have been tossed around as to what Romeo might have been thinking. Well, the amigos have a theory of their own. In Romeo's head, each score counts equally. So, when he was kicking that second field goal at the end of the game, he thought that since the opponents scored twice, that would tie the game. Unfortunately, a touchdown is worth more points than a field goal. Most people know that. Most people.

Learning our lesson from last week, we showed up early enough to get a decent spot in the lot - 12 hours before game time. A low-key morning turned into an exciting afternoon including the new cactus ring toss game. Of course, some spirited egg toss followed with some interesting stipulations. Then the winds came causing us to cut the tailgate short. We actually arrived to the game half an hour before kickoff. Possibly a new record.

The King carried this pig head around for like half an hour.


New game: Cactus ring toss.


Jay is money.


Jay got all four rings on. The only time that was accomplished all day.


This guy was asking us if we remembered him.

After singing this song, how could we forget?

Fish in his mullet and some chick in our sombrero.

She's ready for some egg toss.

Still clean.

All egged up and rubbing it on Larry.

We won.

Everybody won.

A new contestant?

Same results.

Defense Offensive

Where to begin with this one? There was a lot of excitement before the game. Also, a lesson learned for us. Apparently 8am is not early enough to get into the muni lot for a 4pm game. Luckily good timing and some sweet talking got us through the gate. We found a spot and it was go-time.

It rained most the morning, which was a good thing compared to the actual game. The game was ridiculous, highlighted by a fourth quarter field goal to bring the score to a close 28-10. Of course the Browns couldn't get the ball back in the last 10 minutes of the game. So, it's a good thing they got that field goal in.

Jay would like it be known that he showed up to tailgating long before Larry. So, here's your love, Jay. Kudos.

Derek is excited.

First photo-op of the season.


This guy from San Diego wanted to get in the picture, too.


Larry is demonstrating his mad flip cup skills.

Not Too Worried About The Preaseason

Shaun: Here come the ladies. Now do what I showed you.

Romeo: Like this?

Shaun: Yeah, dog. Just like that.

Romeo: Do you think they noticed us?

Shaun: I don't know how they could've missed us.

Romeo: I shouldn't have eaten that second pizza.

Shaun: It's cool.

Romeo: Yeah.

Shaun: Yeah.
