SpitzerTailgate experiences the “Miracle in Blacksburg”…up next, the “U”

When you see a score of 16-15, one must assume it was a hard-fought battle between both team’s offenses & defenses.  That would be true with the VT-Nebraska game from this previous Saturday.  It is pretty tough to sum up what exactly happened in Lane on that cloudy Saturday.  There was no doubt an anxiousness in most Hokie’s minds during the morning of the game, whether they were tailgating or just waking up from their small dormitory rooms.  If you did not see the game live, don’t re-watch the entire game…there was only two plays that mattered, and they both occured in the last 2 minutes of the game.  I would love to say that this weekend’s outcome against Miami won’t come to the last 2 minutes, but I’m not too sure about that.

In terms of SpitzerTailgate, we enjoyed a glorious weekend with our 2 RV’s.  We were directed to the 1st & Main development on South Main Street, after the Airport Lot was full Friday evening.  This ended up being a better location, with its proximity to downtown establishments and grocery stores.  I believe I’m still recuperating from the weekend…it was that great of a time.

Next on the schedule….Marshall Thundering Turd

Forget last weekends result against the CrimsonTide….we finally get a REAL home game in Blacksburg.  This weekend, we battle the Thundering Herd of Marshall.  This is by the far the easiest (well, maybe UVA) game we have on our schedule this year. And the month of September is looking more tough, after the recent win by Miami over Bowden & his Seminoles. If we come out with one win in the month of September, I will be happy…will that be a Marshall victory?

In terms of SpitzerTailgate, we will be arriving in Blacksburg on Saturday morning around the 9 o’clock hour.  You can find a map of our tailgate location on the main page of the site; 205 N. Kent Street, for those wondering.  Bring yourself and that’s it!  We’ll be discussing topics such as whether Brian Stinespring deserves to be re-hired for the 2010 season, and just how scary Bud Foster truly is.  

And oh yeah, by the way…be sure to grab yourself a cup of sangria when you stop by.  It’s a new SpitzerTailgate tradition!

I hope that must of you have heard about the new FanCans from Anheuser-Busch.  If not, CLICK HERE for an article about them from our friends at TailgatingIdeas.com.

I haven’t seen a can in person yet…but my friend, SmallManParts, is bringing some to the tailgate this weekend.  I’m sure the taste will be just the same.
