Honestly I want the "National Champions" to be undefeated until we beat them. Beating an undefeated team helps more than a team that falls to FAU. Plus it would make for a great game to be watched which means more exposure. 

Don't let this happen to you Rocky. Only you can prevent groin shots. 

So it is a night game. We are getting there right when the lots open. We will be cranking tunes, have the TV on other games and playing cornhole. What is every one planning on cooking for this game? I think we are doing steaks for our group. 

I hear there is a huge watch party at 4201 N. Dale Mabry Hwy in Tampa.

Wow! TSA sounds like rules from a Catholic School--"No talking, Laughing, Turning Around of Fooling Around".... and extremely, PC  Hmmm? Now that could be a basis for an OCS

I have very rarely seen this enforced. Usually it is more to do with the fan being drunk and belligerent or getting in an argument with someone. 

Rivalries are deeply in bedded in college football. I grew up a Gator fan and as such I hated FSU. I have never rooted for them to win. Ever... It adds excitement to the game. There were years where the Gators were leagues above FSU and vice versa. You don't kill the rivalry though. The same will be with USF and UCF. Accept it. Enjoy the game and move on. 

Keep in mind in my section this is a non issue because everyone stands and not by obligation. I actually moved sections so I could. Can't make everyone happy. 

Got the decals in and put on the trailer this week. Gonna be there this week. #Bullspeedahead

No, but the Tampa Sports Authority does:

Fans that enter RJS are asked to enjoy the game from the comfort of the seat indicated on their ticket. When fans stand, they block the view of fans behind them. It is not the intent to limit fans’ enjoyment of the game, but continuous standing in seating areas will not be permitted. Guests may choose to stand and watch the game in the end zone plazas, club lounges, or concourses. Please follow the directions of ushers and security.

Notice the phrase "Continuous Standing." If you read the rest of my post I said I don't stand the whole game but when it gets to an exciting part I will stand. Not continuous. but feel free to be offended by how great my ass looks while I stand to cheer on my team. HAHA

Interesting...so people who don’t like people standing in front of them during the game are “idiots?” Also I did not know one had to stand  in order to “cheer and have a good time.”

I didn't say you had to stand but you shouldn't say we have to sit either. I don't stand the whole game but I will definitely be standing when I get excited.

 OK guys so I was sitting in section 114 row 4 yesterday and I was standing for a couple plays in the very first series. Some  older Bull’s fan behind me (about 4 rows back) screamed “hey are you going to stand for the whole **** game.” I turned around looked at him and I thought what a **** BUT I sat down down .  But fortunately for me there about 20 other Bulls Fans that stood up in front of me on the next play when we were backed up in our own End-zone and we started screaming .  I then turned around and gave that guy the death stare. Man I don't get it. I don’t ever want to hear that crap again.  Hey Old alumn, if you don’t want to stand up and cheer get the hell out of the stands that’s my final word . Sick of this ****. I love my Bulls and those that were there, were a factor of noise. Rant over.

My first season I had tickets in 108. I had the same experience. They were great seats but too many crotchety fans there. I moved to section 121 in the south end zone. I am near great people. Fans that love to stand and cheer and have a great time. Sometimes you have to move away from the idiots.

Anyway, I think had I stayed in the area, I might give you guys a run for your money... 

 

I am sure you would have. In 2005 you were where I was last year. I can only imagine you would have a converted school bus with AC and a bathroom.. (Yes I am already planning the upgrade) 

We got ours too. That was really cool. I hope you can get them multiple times. It will be cool to get the stacked along the side of the trailer.

How bad of a person would I be to keep this 8pm info to myself and tell the rest of my tailgating crew that it's a 7pm game so I get a whole extra hour of tailgating?

My crew shows up no later than 4 hours ahead of game time every week. Shooting for 5 hours this week.

Yeah. Yours was great too. We will be there. We are getting the decals this week so it should be better.

Congrats on your Tailgate victory, it was nice to congratulate your work in person.

Thanks for stopping by and saying Hi. Always good to meet up with Bulls Pen peeps.

Nick and other here, I hope you earn a sticker for "Tailgating Excellence"!

 

We definitely earned our sticker this week. I hope you can win them week after week. That would be awesome. We got parked right next to Chris. Met some other Bulls Pen memebers this weekend. Thanks for hanging.

Hey Nick,  I've got one thing to say to you....YOU ARE THE "BULLS FAN" 

now if there were 10,000 more just like you...??  

Ok, maybe say 2 things..maybe it's 3??  Anyway, think..Awning/Tent otherwise you'll be putting a dermatologists kid through school...

Have Fun

I have a 10X10 tent, Big Shop fan, Tailgate grill, folding table and chairs. This video came from it being set up in my front yard.

Looks great!  Here's our new one in action from Saturday.  Not as customized - still trying figure out USF signage, etc., but definitely a step up from our old beater.

Very nice sir. I like the side door. Where we park there is way more room behind the trailer.

Nice work though I think you would have to park it in the RV lot if the RJS/TSA people are still being nasty about it. Did you take it to game one and have any pictures of it in use?

One of our board members here has/had a tailgate trailer that had the opening on the side with a sink and tap for the kegerator plus tv etc. I think I last saw it at the game at FAU in ~2007. Pretty sure it was friends of  @Jewbull who had it. Might have just bought it pre-made. It was pretty sweet. I think I had some pictures of it from the tailgate along with the other pictures from that game. But I don't know if those galleries are even available anymore.

  

I was able to park in Lot 7 like normal. Just had to pay for two spots. No biggie. I expected that. The good thing is that the trailer is only 8 feet long so it does not take up as much space as a car so it gives us more tailgate room.

Awesome Nick! Where did you get the Let's Go Bulls stoplight?

A friend of mine came across it at a Ross here in Lakeland. Random find. 

Here is the finished tailgate trailer build. She turned a few heads on Saturday.

My friend and I have outfitted an enclosed trailer for tailgating purposes. It was just finished this week. There is a link below to my google drive folder with pics and a video. 

The trailer has two flag pole supports to support 15' flag poles made of PVC. It has a 40" tv with soundbar and sub woofer, an antenna and a roku. It will also be loaded with a big shop fan, 10 X 10 tent, home made cornhole boards, grill, USF cooler etc. I am ready for football season boys.

I've been planning on building one as well, with the intent on having it done for next season. I'd like to have a concession window with an awning on the side, but i'm just not sure how difficult it would be to install or if I should just purchase the trailer with one already.

Did you do any research on that by any chance?

I looked into it. I decided against it because the parking lots don't offer a lot of room on the side of cars so I decided to utilize the back of the trailer instead.
