Sorry for leaving the house in a bit of a mess! If there is a next time, we will be better behaved!

Gameday and Tailgating. Once again, there were a lot of Bison fans enjoying the good times.

Setting up:

SoCalled and family - What? No HD TV in the lot?

Could this be BisonFanatic abandoning the wife and kids for a football game? You earned it!

Great pics, Rock. Nice to finally meet you in person.

[BlueBisonRock]

Random fans. Tailgating is an excuse to say hi to a Bison fan you haven't met.

Heckler and Heckler's Wife. Quiet and well behaved. At least until the first beer was served.

http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk298/rjehni/Bison 2011/DSC_0366.jpg Was an outstanding weekend filled with great moments. Maybe had a bit too much of a good time as I am still working on fixing up the place! Thanks to all of you who stopped in and stayed overnight. Enjoyed your company and contributions to the party. Lets do it again bigger and better for the USD game next year.

[BisonTeacher]

Rock...as always nice work. Its nice to actually see the team getting the dakota marker...they showed the SDSU band on the webfeed instead.

[EndZoneQB]

Always look forward to your pics, Rock! Good chatting with you, too.

[4mcruenomore]

[GradBison]

Leo and Gail...good people!!

It was great to meet some of you guys yesterday. It was nice to see how tailgating is suppose to be, instead of the large gathering of people they call tailgating in the backyard. I must say the rummy bears were fantastic as were TAB's pudding shots.

[Notorious]

TAB's pudding shots.

You must've had a "private" session with Tranny.....

Uh Oh, TAB's pudding shots? Did he go away to the bathroom for "a couple of minutes" and return with these so called pudding shots? I'd pass on those babies.

HEY SDBison : Thanx for the hospitality last weekend at the Ponderosa. I was wondering though when your wife was screaming " AND DONT EVER COME BACK AGAIN " as we were departing the driveway, was that directed at all of us, or a certain person related to a specific incident ?
#1 - When PL started the sausage fight and knocked over all the fine china that was her grandmothers ? ( I think there are companies that can re-create it)
#2 - BlueBisonRock demonstrating his tackling technique on your grandfather clock? ( well, a little bit of tape and a little bit of glue, and it will look like new)
#3 - GoBison attempting to cook lil debbies in the oven and started the 3 alarm fire ( I got nothing ) ( that wasnt good)
#4 - A certain someone demonstrating the technique he showed his son on passing the football ( I really do feel bad that the football went through that expensive stained glass window, but remember SD, that ball sailed through your hands, so he cant be assigned all the blame )
#5 - Bisonfan1 leaving the door open and Hecklers 2 dogs getting in the house ( I know your wife really loved that couch, I will attempt to call the salvation army to see if they have something similiar they could deliver, I didnt relize those 2 small dogs could tear that stuffing down to the springs) ( sorry man)
#6 - Heckler - see #5 above, for bringing the dogs in the first place ( Heckler, will you pitch in with me on the couch ? Thanx bud )
#7 - Jerry P. the hob nailed boot thing was supposed to be a joke ( I did not realize he even owned a pair, it was amazing how your circular saw worked to cut out that section of hardwood floor where the boots were stuck to)
#8 - Kevin overheating your wifes hairdryer in the morning and causing fire #2 ( good thing we had a little breakfast made that the Garretson Rural Fire Dept got in on, they said they might not charge you for the second call out within 6 hours, so we saved you some money there )
#9 - SDBison, ( its your house, if you want to pee in your own hot tub, thats up to you )

[17>1]

I didn't get a chance to swing by the tailgate and meet anyone, but if you saw this guy, that's me.

I was sitting (standing) right behind you.

#9 - SDBison, ( its your house, if you want to pee in your own hot tub, thats up to you ) Thats OK........anything for Bison fans. That's nothing compared to the damage that I would have done if the Bison had lost to SDSU. By the way the Bunny fans (I mean SDSU grads that don't support their team) at work are really quiet today.
