Those Who Win In November Will Not Be Named Florida
Happy November football, Tiger fans,
On Saturday, our beloved Tigers (finally, finally, finally) return home for a football game. The Tigers host the Florida Gators as Mizzou’s quest for an undefeated* season continues. Kickoff is scheduled for 11:00 a.m., tailgate will start well before that. It’s too bad the snow showed up a few days early, but it’ll still be chilly for Floridians. I smell Mizzou victory.
Historically, cold games hurt the tailgating attendance. Morning games also hurt the tailgating attendance. As such, I’m betting there’s not going to much of a tailgating crowd pre-game. Please let me know if you’re bringing a bunch of friends and I’m going to be wrong. Seriously, please let me know. I’d be glad to be wrong.
With a late-arriving crowd, I’ll be there and be setup, but not expecting any food pre-game. After we beat Florida, we will be serving fried Gator Bites in a post-game victory tailgate.**
As became one of Coach Pinkel’s mammoth quotables, “those who win in November will be remembered.” Go Tigers, beat the Gators. #CHOMP #GoldPants?? Speaking of things that should be remembered, screw ku.***
*At home. Undefeated at home. If it doesn’t happen in Missouri, does it even count?
**We won’t really be serving fried Gator Bites post-game. We probably won’t really even be hanging out much after the game. I’d like to, and I will if you will, but I figure most people will just go home and celebrate the Tiger win.
***Seriously, screw ku.
