Great day in the morning, college football is here! Think of your favorite superlative and insert that grandiose adage here. I do hope you fine people are as excited as I am. I am flat out titillated.
Not just about the great match-up between #4 LSU and #3 Oregon, but about what they are serving in the parking lot. I'll let the professional sportscasters prognosticate the outcome of the ball game. I'm here to break down the tailgating.
The Oregon Ducks are flying into as delightful an outdoor party as they've ever seen. Just a few Cajun folks and 100,000 of their friends. I'm getting the shivers. No matter that the game is in Dallas at Jerry's place; those Tigers will travel.
While sauntering between purple and gold canopies the visiting webfoots will encounter gumbo, jambalaya, low country boil, muffelatas, po'boys, boudin...mmm mmmmh. Don't let it ruffle your feathers if you see some turtle soup or frogs legs, too. Them's good eats.
LSU folks are also known for theme grilling. What is "theme grilling?" Well, keep an eye out for a little duck in your gumbo. They enjoy a pig pickin' when Arkansas visits and grilled alligator sausage when Florida arrives, so don't pay no mind to it. They're just pulling your chains. Also, crawfish are out of season from August to January, so there won't be as many as you might think.
Now you'll have to wet your whistle, too, and I'd advise bringing a wooden leg: cold beers, bourbon drinks, and daiquiris aplenty. They might even import the infamous "hurricane" concoctions from New Orleans. Just don't drink any punch with a boot floating in it...
I suwanne, I'm jealous that I won't be there to witness it myself! Y'all have a great time and keep your senses about you. It's sure to be a fine southern occasion transplanted to Dallas. And if someone asks you, "Jyeet yet?" Say no.
Regards, Beau
