Go to www.lsualumnidallas.com or contact me at hilbertcliff@yahoo.com. for more info. We also have a limited number of game tickets available.

Sounds like fun. I saw the Tarrant county tigers also had a deal going at another restaurant.

Oregon party was legit. Will be here for TCU!

We'll be expecting you! Look forward to seeing you there.

Can you elaborate on the adult beverages? Just beer? Also is there ample place to sit? Thanks

J. Gilligan's is a good spot. That's where we did an official pregame party when we played Oregon State a few years back. They've got a bit of seating, but if y'all expecting 2k people, obviously seating is going to be a premium.

Sounds like a great event

From what I've been told the beer will be served from kegs and will be Miller and Abita Amber, although that's not absolutely certain at this point.

quote:Humperdinks. That is the usual hangout and where it was for the Oregon game. It fills up fast, and they had to form a line to get in per the fire marshall when it hit capacity. 1 person out, another could come in. But it was a very good time, good service, pretty good food. I imagine they will be better stocked for drinks this time around.
I saw the Tarrant county tigers also had a deal going at another restaurant

Add some frog legs to the menu and it would be perfect. Sounds like a great time though.

So is the tail gate party worth $65 dollars a piece for tickets?
Posted on 8/14/13 at 3:20 pm to LancePwll
I didn't go to the tailgate party for the Oregon game. I was too busy walking around the stadium looking for tickets
Doesn't sound bad though since it includes parking, shuttle service, and beer.
