for hosting a successful tailgate that had a great turnout.

The members of the board spent a lot of time working on it!

I hope those who attended enjoyed the event!

Is it really necessary to come here and congratulate yourself and pretend your tailgate was a success when most everybody has said it was horrible?

Youre the first person I heard say it was horrible! And I dont believe that for a second. Im a member, but not on the board and I, along with everyone else there thought it was well put on and had a great time!

Their was a thread here earlier proving you wrong...Most people said it was terrible and a huge waste of money...Also that it wasn't well put together.

Far from being worth $50 a pop. Not near enough seating, very long lines for food and drinks expensive. But it was very comfortable a/c wise.

This is being kind.

It sucked. The line to get in was long. The food line was forever! There were two beer gardens but only one open to the general population which resulted in really long lines for expensive beer. The liquor lines...no one had time for that. The bathrooms had lines because half the stalls were out of order. We had no where to sit. We had to sit on the floor.

Never again. Alumni "tailgates" are dead to me.

Ran out of good food, crazy long lines for beer. the AC and BTE may have made it worth it. But overall it kinda sucked



quote:

Lines were long for everything, including food, drinks & restrooms. I HATE lines. I don't know who catered the event, but the food sucked. The jambalaya may have been the worst I have ever had. The Golden Band & BTE were good. Overall, I was disappointed. I just hope the proceeds raised go to a good cause.

Dude, try to take criticism a little better. Maybe you need to go back and work on the issues and actually improve the shite that didn't work. If so many people are complaining, it means your shite sucked!!!!

Stop fighting back, it only makes you look stupid

You and all the others obviusly have no clue about entertaining. Why am I even arguing? I was simply trying to thank the board members who devoted a lot of time to host an event that many people enjoyed. You guys are just amazing! Have a great night!

I kinda have to agree...The sample size may be small, but the overwhelming repetition of the problems are convincing...I wasn't there so I can't say anything, but I'd agree that learning from the mistakes can help future events

I'm willing to bet Aramark took $40-45 of each of that $50/head.
