  • Western Illinois Roll Call

    I know it's a home game, but I'm bored, it's only Tuesday, I need a nap and I'm super pumped to be in the Dome. The weather is going to be an awesome tailgating temperature of 65 degrees.

    So -- who all will be there - how many people are you bringing - who is coming from out of town to attend - what are you planning on doing prior to kickoff (stroll campus, visit the Panther Bookstore, etc.) -- what foods are you bringing to tailgate, what are you most looking forward to about the day --- etc....???
    "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

        Our family of four will be there. My 3 1/2 year old is very excited to see TC again, and my 18 month old has no idea what he's in for in a few days. I'm most excited for --- a win. To actually SEE the team play for the first time this year. For Hells Bells, PR over the mic, the garage door opening, hearing the marching band. I think we might take a stroll through campus, too... just for old time's sake!

          Wish we could start early, but need to get the little guy's nap in before we take him up to the Dome so we can hopefully avoid a meltdown in the middle of the game. This will be only his 2nd game ever, so we'll see how it goes! We hope to be tailgating by 1:30ish. Food? Who knows yet! Would love good ideas, though.
          I was in the bookstore today - 10% off tailgating gear this week. Got myself a new tshirt and the little guy a football. Could have spent another couple hundred, but I held back!

          Is there really a game this weekend? 'Bout time!!!

            I could always spend a couple hundred at the bookstore... I love the place, but I usually try to avoid it. I worked there years back -- wish I still had that discount. Did you see their purple and gold outdoor lights?? I want them so bad for our deck at our house! We always do a Panther football pumpkin carving, and the two would look great together.

                We might actually be able to come up...

                  We've got at least 6 to the game and more tailgating.

                    My wife and I will be there. Planning on getting our lucky pre-game meal at Sub City beforehand, then walking the lots to meet other Panther fans. We'll be in the gravel lot SW of the dome (scored some parking passes from one of the wife's insurance customers). Hope to see you there!

                    Victory for U-N-I!

                    Find out what the other team wants to do, then take it away from them.

                            Will be there for family weekend to see my son. Looking forward to throwing the football around outside before the game and taking my son out to eat after the game. Along with a Panther W by 30 or 40. Unless we go SFA and leave the starters in.

                              Friday will be the first day off since the ISU game... and it will be spent in the car getting to Cedar Falls for the opener. 10 1/2 short hours to Dome sweet Dome.

                              The 14 of us will start with tailgating at 11:30 down by the maintenance center and end with dinner at a local restaurant (yet to be decided).
