Barking Laughter Rant

without comments

Happy fall, Tiger fans!

On Saturday, our beloved Tigers host the Bulldogs from the University of Georgia.  It’s the happiest portion of the happiest time of the year as the weather will be gorgeous and we get one of the top kickoff times of 6:30 p.m.

Mattress By Appointment will be catering the food at this tailgate, call that guy over there for all your mattress purchasing needs.  Big Daddy’s BBQ will be bringing pulled chicken and brisket for sliders along with some sides (beans and coleslaw I think?).  Food should arrive around 3:30.  A couple of people are bringing desserts, but more desserts, chips, and friends are always good things to bring if you’re bringing something.  We’ll have some Georgia fans at the tailgate, prepare to be barked at.  And prepare for them to get laughed at for adult barking.

I’ve heard a bunch of jive this week about “getting Mizzou’d” or similar regarding last week’s game.  I have no idea what that means, as Jack & I left to get out of the sun right before our All American kicked the game winning field goal at the end of regulation to beat Auburn.* 

So, I assume, “getting Mizzou’d” is winning in awesome and dramatic fashion.  Sacking Todd Reesing for safety to seal the victory.  Beating Florida with a 2-point conversion in overtime last year.  A goal line stand to beat LSU 2-years ago.  Henry Josey running like mad at the end of the game to beat ANM and seal the SEC East.    Beating the #1 team in the country on aSaturday night in October as their red-clad fans look on in shock.  Here’s to whipping that tradition out again, and getting back to getting Mizzou’d.

Speaking of jive, the mythical shoe-wearing birds have not yet lost a football game this season.  Luckily, it’s hurricane season and there’s a Cyclone with a cardinal trapped inside that’s blowing in to Larry to stop that nonsense.  screw ku.
