Whoever thought they'd leave me in charge of a tailgate party was insane....
Tomorrow night is the first night of my 10 Year High School Reunion. We're having a check in spot at the Homecoming game, a sort of tail gate party, and they decided I should do it. No guidance or anything. Worst part? I was sick Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and now I have to get everything ready TONIGHT! What was I thinking?
So, loungers, please help. I have no grill. Give me other ideas! I'm going to get sodas and candy for the kids, but beyond that, WHAT THE HELL DO I DO FOR THESE PEOPLE!?

I wish I could do those things, though.

4. Much thanks...
But I don't know about food. I think it's a huge expense, and I probably won't bring enough, and dammit, the people who talked me into this aren't even going. I'm so not excited about this.

6. Contact the folks who are going to the tailgate party
and ask them each to bring an appetizer dish with 4 pieces for each person. If you have 10 people, you get 40 pieces of whatever per person and that is alot of food. Bring some fun music, maybe some goofy pictures....

7. It won't be totally lame.
I'm going to have the 90s channel from Sirius blaring and I'll have sodas and candy. :shrug:
They will think twice about this again I'm sure.
