    @theyolksonyou - I believe @nolabrew graduated from Georgia Tech.  Geology I believe.   He brewed the most excellent beer for Brisket Camp.

    Just to show you how miserable my sports life is; I like UK football better than UK basketball. Just never got into like most of the crazy Kentucky Basketball fans do. There has go to be more wrong in my head than the obvious, which is featured here, on a regular basis.
    Watching UK football, as a fan, makes you have to drink. It is comical anymore. This time of year, the season is already over, great seats for nothing, or almost nothing, great parking for tailgating, even though you are the only one there, no lines to the restrooms either. At least you get to see a good football team play, and it sure is not Kentucky.
    Go Cats. Another season of beating nobodies and losing 7 or 8 to mid level, or better, teams. 
    I need a drink.



    Duke football has traditionally been similar.  That's why football is really just a warm-up sport for basketball - so the freshmen can learn the cheers and the fight song.

    You should grow out the mullet and the stache so we all recognize you. 


    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Am I going to have to listen to basketball BS all day long at the blast? Everybody knows there's only two sports seasons. Football season and waiting on football season.

    You won't hear anything from me about BB from me, I don't understand why that game exist! Fishing, Egging and Nascar are the only sports for me. :)

    No no brother double, basketball talk will be limited to the Kentucky crowd cuz losers don't want to talk about it.  We'll be modest of course.  In KY, football season is how we spend waiting on the most exciting sport on earth!

    This is going to be quite the weekend. My wif and I will be taking the Butt Blast in, and then Alpharetta (GA) bound on Sunday to catch Van Morrison. Can't think of a better way to spend a weekend.

    For sure those will be on the menu brother piney!  Don't listen to Matt - he is a Carolina fan after all and cannot be trusted!

    Oh, and I guess I'll need to pull my U.VA sticker off my truck so that
    @tarheelmatt will let me enter the gates.

    Count me in gentlemen. A mere 4.5 hour drive for me.  And if all goes well over the winter I will supply the oysters.  Will probably harvest them Friday morning and hit the road south.  Doesn't get any fresher than that! 
    Yes sir! We'll have to watch those Kentuckians eating oysters along with the petting zoo near.  Sick people!

    I'll have a nice collection of UNC decals/sticker to place over them.  Remember we have a good hookup for stickers now on the forum.  


    On a serious note, fresh oysters would be the BOMB brother!
