Los Lobos is Spanish for The Lobos
Happy Football Season Tiger fans,
The Tigers play their first home game this Saturday night, with kickoff scheduled for 6:00 p.m. We play the Lobos from New Mexico. For anyone interested in correcting my Mexican above, don’t bother. Like all good sophisticants, I took French. I can’t begin to tell you how useful French was in Malden, Mo. Comment ca va? If you’re not planning on attending the game, you can fly to Albuquerque and watch it on TV.
Sarah & I will be tailgating once again, same spot as last year (Lot D). As with the first game last year, we’ll be coupled with my work tailgate, so come out and watch the show. Buckingham’s will be bringing a bunch of BBQ to be served at 4:00 and we’ll have ample beer, lemonade, and tea, for you and yours. I’ll probably be out there by 2:00 or so, almost certainly before that really, but there’s only so much fun one man can have with 2 kegs.
The Tigers are 1-0, exactly 7.692% of the way to their undefeated season. Naysayers, be warned. Mizzou beat the Indians of Arkansas State at Arrowhead Stadium last week, almost certainly causing an NCAA investigation into native american mascot abuse. In retribution, Arkansas beat “Mizzou State” last week, but nothing like I’d like to, the name stealing bastards.
