Random thoughts from T-Man's USC roadtrip!

[T-Man]

1.  Parking at tailgate without parking Nazi's....  How enjoyable it was to be treated like a human!   True southern hospitality is evident with the parking attendants (can I get you a bag for your clean-up?  sure you can leave the tailgate will save your spot)...  ATTENTION RJS parking people, you do not have to be an a-hole to get people parked!

2.  6.5 hours of tailgating in high 70's Temp, is very relaxing... The best tailgate experience for a college game... Bullwark and Bull Backers tailgate was awesome, Thanks again to all involved!

3.  Frat drunk guys at USC are idiots!   Yes some frat punk tried to pick a fight with us, he however was quickly put down by a cop who shut him up, again quick response to a problem...

4.  Next time I travel it will be at Embassy Suites,  what a great place to enjoy the weekend!

5.  The USF offense scheme is scoring less than the nerd in the back of my classroom... I hope it gets fixed soon....MEMO to the MAN...  It is okay to run the ball more, your personnel is filled with talented blue chip running backs---NOT QUARTERBACKS!!!!   I have not given up the ship but we need to be pragmatic coaches, if it does not work you should scrap and try something new!

Have a great week Bull Fans- keep the faith, and trust JIMBO to right the ship!    Later-  T-Man

I've been to SDSU, Kentucky, BAMA and USM and I must say that USC had the nicest fans I have ever witnessed ANYWHERE! I would go back to that city anytime.

2. SOmeone touched on this earlier but the girls all dressed up on game day was awesome and they have to have MORE hot girls there per square foot then any other away game I've witnessed.

3. They don't stop selling beer until 6 a.m. we know this beause we tried it. They stop selling liquor at 2 a.m. And mini's rule. They almost (I said ALOMST) make every drink Hub-style.

4. Touring the Capitol was amazing.

5. Gotta' Love Bojangles and Them Welcoming Southern Florida.

Wow, very nice words from you guys!  It was a great game and the weather was perfect.  The bulls fans that were around us were super nice.  You guys had better representation than I expected.  Come back to Columbia anytime.

Good luck the rest of this season!

I forgot to warn you all about the mini's.  

For those of you who dont know the mini's, there is a law in S.C. that bartenders have to pour from the mini bottles (like used on airlines). It's pretty cool that every drink has exactly the same amount of alchohol.  

There is a downside though, when you want a drink like a Long Island Iced Tea, you have to buy ALL of the bottles needed to make the drink.

agreed except for the score, it was the best football road trip ive been to

They almost (I said ALOMST) make every drink Hub-style.

I Lub the Hub!

There is nothing like SEC football. I've been to see us play other SEC teams - 'Bama, Kentucky, and now Carolina. Best road trip so far. Always the nicest fans, and the dressed up hotties doesn't hurt either. I think every USF fan should get to one SEC game to see how it's done. They treat every game as an event. Always a packed house and pumped up to see their team no matter who they play. I think there were more people tailgating after the game than we get before. And I love all the pre-game ceremony. Seventy thou plus chanting Gamecocks and yelling first-down. Just awesome!

I can't wait until we can pack RJS and have that atmosphere of excitement toward our Bulls. Hopefully sooner than later.

Yeah, I had a blast at the game and so did my Wife, she just imigrated from the Philippines and this was her first experience of college football. ;D USC environment A+++++++

Yea, my roommate and I had fun.  We went to 5 points and had a blast and made it to the vista.  We liked 5 points a little better for the club experience.  T-man, thanks for letting us find you for the tail gate.  Other than the game, it was a great trip.  

;D ;D
