    Does the camp ground offer camping sites for tents? I’m sure they do but might be my first time attending BB.

    There was once a pun a time when a group of (slightly intoxicated) grown @ss men attempted to put up a tent....I want call names but the tent had U of Kentucky logo and colors. With all due respect to my friends and colleges, it was like a monkey f’n a football. Now this was a tailgate tent but....just letting you know the bar is set low for erecting said tent. There are pictures and is well documented. If you need help, I can recommend those not to ask for assistance. The sky’s are beautiful so sleepin (assuming you plan too)...under them are nice.

    This is as good as it gets. It worked better when we figured out we had to turn it over. Thank goodness Robin was there to help. BTW, where was Robin? Nevermind. Lotta people walking by, acting like they don't know us.

    It's not that they don't know you, Ron, it's just that they're embarrassed to be associated with you.  It's an important distinction!

    In my previous life as a submariner, if you passed out drunk at a party you typically woke up missing an eyebrow. 

    Food for thought. 
    I bet the true story of what happened is definitely NSFW.  Go Army Beat Navy!

    Nice job getting the word out early.  It's almost to the minute the same time to BB as it is to BC.  I'm gonna look at a campsite and if @lousubcap comes, I can bring the bottle of bourbon he's sending me in a couple weeks.
