Arrrggghhhh...First Home Game

ECU vs VA Tech - September 10, 2011

R playing Washers.  We spent a good part of the week building and staining this game so it would be ready for it's debut at the first tailgate.
 Friends enjoying beer in the shade.
 Girls at the tailgate in PURPLE.
 The spread on the table - honestly by this point it was nearly devoured.  Friends brought sausage balls, buffalo chicken balls with blue cheese dip, and rosemary parmesan bread sticks.  R grilled chicken and beef kabobs with veggies and I made cupcakes.
 R's amazing tailgate grill makes an appearance and the ECU marching band stopped by for a run through of the fight song!
 Loyal and bold, we're the purple and gold!  We are the Pirates of ECU!
R and I at our tailgate site.  We weren't so happy after returning from the game...unfortunately our boys didn't pull off a win.  Can't say I'm proud of the way we played but I'm optimistic for the next game.

  2. You're so sweet! We were upset that the game had a lot of mistakes. We also seemed to have some trouble catching the ball (priority number one!) It would have been great if we could have tied it up...like more "edge of the seat" action! You guys did great though, congrats on your win.
