OK, so which group of tailgaters is going to Monroe?

Don't you feel a bit intimidated when you see the opponents all over Cajun Field, flying flags and showing pride?

It is time we learn what it can be like to be the ones who can cause that feeling amongst the home team's fans!

I would even lend all our tailgating stuff to someone if they want to get it there. We have 2, 10 x 10 EZ up tents and lots of Cajun colored car wash type decorations, tables, chairs, a t level stove, burners, tons of pots and giant Cajuns spoons, etc.

Anyone up for the task of being put in charge of securing a spot, hauling the stuff and setting up? It may be easier to rent the tent and furniture and just haul the cooking stuff.

Edit***

I spoke to ULM and the woman in charge of the spots is out sick today, but will call me tomorrow. The best we can figure is there is a designated spot for visitor's tailgating and it is first come - first served.

I called a tent rental place and we can get a 16x16 for $110, tables for $7 and chairs for 95 cents each. They will set up and take down. So I figured for $175 we could have enough stuff for a medium sized tailgate.

If anyone is available to haul our stuff, let me know.

My wife & I and our 5 youngons all headin' up. Should we bring our own food?? The people I know from there can't cook worth a flip!

RedBug if you are bringing 5 youngons I would definitely bring your own food. LOL.... Just kidding... Count my wife and I in. We are going to be there and I hope we can get a few thousand fans to show up. It would be great support for our team.

I will be there with a number of family members & meeting with several friends.

Ok great. I thought since it could be a really big game it may come close to a sell out. I never been there so not sure how big their stadium is.

Thanks

Stadium is about the same size as ours... They have even more trouble than we do getting people to the games...

Gang,

The dome only had about 35 tickets left yesterday out of our allotment.

If you don't think it'll be a big deal to sit with the group it's one thing, but if it'l be like what they did to us at the UT game, I would make sure to get mine!
