I love starting this!

With it being a night game I don't see myself heading to Lincoln even though I know it would be a freaking blast.  I think this game will be one that I watch at home with a few friends.  

What about you guys?

 
Daughter's band marches at the State Fair Saturday morning.  Picking her up after that and headed to Lincoln.

Same seats in Memorial that we've had for five years (I think) now.

 
Watch from home.  Start the day off with putting food on the smoker which will include a breakfast bacon explosion and a pork butt and ribs later for during the game.  Maybe grill up some burgers for lunch.  Everything inbetween cooking will be sitting myself on the couch and catch as much football as I can or as expected wth having two kids under 3.  

 
The last opener I went to was Wyoming in 2013. It was hotter than all hell when tailgating, and then even hotter in East Stadium during the game (100 degrees). We also thought it would be fun to keep the game close and won by 3. Haven't gone to an opener since.

I'll be at my usual spot: the sports bar near my place where the local alumni association chapter holds their watch parties. I'll probably have an order of fish tacos.

 
Hunting teal/doves early Saturday morning and then getting ready for our annual 12 hour fish fry.  I am feeding 50-60 people all day long... starting with the Iowa Wyoming game.  Can't wait!

I've got baseball practice for my son's travel team in the morning (he's stoked for watching the game saturday night though), but I'll be back to the house by 10:30 to tend to my BBQ'ing. I plan on having some friends over, so we'll probably drink and watch games all day. 

 
Hunting elk with my bow at 10k+ in the Rocky mtns.  I killed last year's bull about an hour before kickoff of the first game.  Hoping to do that again this year.

I'll catch the game on DVR, likely after knowing the result.  I am really thankful for DVR.  

 
my plans were to be at the game....but with an air cast on my right foot i don't want to battle the stadium steps in that crowd so will be giving the tickets away.  

 
Golf at 730am.  Set up the Tailgate at 1pm, in the seats by 630, starting my 15th year of never missing a home game.  Come on Mr. Riley let's get it done.
