Head count? Shoot for 40.

Chkn and Biscuits:

Chicken hunks, in a yellowish gravy, with carrots and peas, over top biscuits. Thats my def. Whats yours?

That'll work. I don't usually do vegetables, but it's not a problem.

We'll see what we can do. Send the kid to WaWa on a sled, maybe. Snowin' like a bitch in HBG for the past 2 hours. SNOW-ING!

Right now, I expect a bitch of a time getting from NYC to Philly tonight, so it looks unlikely that I'll have a table with me. Sorry kids.

What are vegetables????

Bringing one big ass roll of plastic to wrap the tents. One sandwich ring. (Eat a piece, I'm tired of bringing shit only to take it back home. Besides, Mrs. Dean-o made it, ... it's good.) The wife also made some type of chocolate type cake shaped like a football. (Bring tupperware, I'm tired of taking shit back home.) We're bringing 3 1/2 gallons of piping hot hot chocolate. Just checked the cabinet and we're out of Rumplemintz. If anyone has some please bring it along. We're planning to use Dr. MCGillicuddys FireBall whiskey as a substitute. I believe that I'll also have some coffee available if I don't drink it all due to our anticipated arrival. If anyone has plastic wire ties brings those along to. (To secure the plastic sides to the tents.)

I guess that's it.

Im bringin a liter of Rumple...so i got that covered dean o.


(GGB sheds a tear)



Eagle in DC has the plastic ties.

otown's plane was diverted to Hartford....

Operation "Bowl or Bust Tailgate" initiates in T minus 2 hours and 6 minutes....

im in....should be there by 10...

Just talked to Seth about an hour ago.

He INDEED did get there at 1 A.M. I couldn't hear him clearly, but I think they got in lines to get into the lot.

Got the whole row where we usually tailgate.

Reports are they are VERY warm and it is setting up to be the greatest tailgate in history. Pictures to follow.

The best part was the first thing Nugget did upon arrival was to build a urinal out of the gigantic snow banks. NICE CALL!!!!!

GO BIRDS!!!!!

good luck. hope you guys get your win.

It was as advertised. I couldn't even count how many 'Levelers were there. The lengths that some of these folks had to go to just to get there was amazing. I'm not gonna tell their stories, I just hope that they post them for themselves. It was great to see everybody there before the game, and those that came back afterward to enjoy the win. You guys (all of you) did one hell of a job.

WHEW!

EXHALE!!!~


OK, wow folks, to EVERYONE who came out and made that 'gate what it was- one hulluva tip o the cap to you! ALL!


The place was bananas, SO many people hangin out, all gate long, smiles and confidence were in abundance, as well as grub n suds.

Plenty of pics to follow...

Great to meet so many 1st timers:
O-town, Atlanta Iggle, Z Iggle, Betasite & family... great meetin all you guys.

Hulk, Skillz, missed ya at the gate.

Hooligan gettin snowed in ( turned away on the turnpike I believe) sucked!


Guys - this tailgate matched the tone of the day- it was the perfect compliment to a day we'll never forget.

Hat's off to Seth, Dean-o, Nugget, FEF, Monty, Kyle, and all the others who got there so early and set up "the fort". 70 degrees inside the tent, carpeted floor, and a private urinal! HA!

Highlights:
-meeting all of the levelers.
-hearing O-Town's amazing "planes, trains, and automobiles" story.
-Seth kicking Monty in the nuts (man, that looked like it hurt!)
-Singing "Dean-ooooo, Dean-0 Dean-o Dean-o, Dean-oooo, Dean-ooooo! Dean-ooooo!"
-Mrs. Dean-o's delicious spread (I'm talkin' about the food, Dean!)
-Oh, and the game.

Perhaps much of this has already been written. (I haven't read anything up to this point.)

Just wanted to take the opportunity to thank all of you who braved the cold weather and adverse travel conditions to help make our tailgating experience one of the best ever. The “levelers” were definitely out in full force yesterday. Just good to realize that nearly every regional corner of the US of A had a representative in the house. Wow, that says a lot about Eagles fans in general, but particularly our “family” of die-hard contributors we have at this site.

Beta, it was both a surprise and a pleasure meeting you and your family. I know that Mrs. Dean-o had an enjoyable time speaking to your wife and girls. Atlanta, O-Town, it was equally enjoyable meeting you fellas and being able to spend some time putting a face and personality with the “signature”. Of course we cannot forget to mention the fellas that have already been previously met and always make our tailgates interesting and fun. (You know who you are.)

-11 degrees, ouch. All kidding aside, my big toes on both feet are still tingling. I think they’ll be okay. I think yesterday may have been the most beer that I’ve ever drunk prior to an Eagles game. They just seemed to go down good. Good food, good conversation and plenty of cold drink. (And a heated tent.) The brewskis that were purchased inside the stadium almost immediately turned into slushys. Our trip home was less of a challenge than the trip to get to Philly. We were grateful for that.

A big thanks to Seth, Phull Monty and Nova for arriving oh so early in the wee hours of the am to ensure our parking spots. And an even more special thanks to Seth for taking the lead and coordinating this event. It was indeed something momentous. Yesterday will become a memory that will last for years. (From the moment that we arrived in Philly from the time we said our goodbyes and departed.)

Thanks again folks,

Dean-o and Mrs. Dean-o

All time greatest 'gate turned into all time greatest game.

Nuff Said

Yesterday was a blast. It was great meeting everyone. WE ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great meetin' everybody and thank God you guys had a heated tent!

Thought we had a little trip to make before talkin' with O-town and betasite. Un-friggin'-believable.

Sittin' up in 216 had to be the coldest I've ever been in my life. My feet are still tinglin'. Wind was insane.

Remember thinkin' that the moment the clock hit zeros we would bolt for cover but by the time it happened there was absolutely no way we were leavin'. I figured I'd risk a few toes for the chance to see as much of the celebration as possible.

I don't think one single person left the stadium before the trophy presentation was completely over. In sub-zero weather!

Oh, almost forgot. Septa sucks balls.

Awesome gate- that tent saved at least 3 of my toes.

Seth- great sittin' with your brother.

Great to see everyone else, as always- definitely a memorable time.

It really was unreal.

TO EVERYONE WHO TOOK PHOTOS, please send to me ( I will call you or write you ).

I will then send them along with the ones I have to Scotty and Hook.

Once again, guys, that was the best, fastest gate Ive ever been to. Time flew. Honestly never got cold tho, too pumped- and the tent bein 70+ degrees didnt hurt either!

Where to start…Trains, planes and automobiles accurately describes our trip from West Coast to East on Saturday.

It was almost surreal from beginning to end.

We walked into the tent, never having met anyone of the Levelers in person, not knowing what to expect and within the time it took to shake hands and introduce ourselves, you guys made it feel like family. I can't say anything else but “Thank You”.

As I explained to Dean-o, you guys don't know what you've done for me in the past and Sunday's tailgate was just an affirmation of the type of people that you are.

Seth, Nova, and Phull Monty…thanks for everything from the tent to the food and beverages. We appreciated everything. Only wish that someday your hospitality can be returned in kind.

Dean-o and Mrs Dean-o…We talked about you guys for a long time on the plane home. We've often heard the expression “They are salt of the Earth”, but on Sunday morning we saw it. Thank you.

The game was great, the noise was even better, the fans above that, and the collective sigh in the 4th quarter made it. We were speechless when we finally got back to the room. Emotionally drained more like it.

I think, with your guys help, I gave one of those memories to my family that we will forever talk about.

Later,
Beta

I hate to echo what everyone else has said, but there just can't be too many thanks to go around.

Seth, you did an incredible job organizing the whole mess. For the first two hours, my brother and I enjoyed watching you pace back-and-forth, frantically making calls on a cellphone that seemingly had an unlimited battery life. My bro said, "You can tell he's a mover and a shaker."

Seth, Monty, and Nova, you guys are freakin' nuts for getting there so early, but thank God you did. Nova, I still can't believe you drove in only to save spaces. That's dedication, and offering an extra tin of buffalo chicken dip for your party was the least I could do.

O-Town, Atlanta, Beta (and family), it was great meeting you guys and hearing your crazy travel stories.

f-dallas, the gate wouldn't have been the same without your CD.

Deano without your generator (and timely refilling of it), more than a few levellers would still be suffering from frostbite. My pants also wouldn't have that attractive freshly charred smell.

Mrs. Deano, Kyle, Seth, Monty, Hooky, and everyone else who brought great grub and drink to the game (I know there are a lot of you that I'm forgetting), you guys made it so worthwhile.

And everyone who travelled long distances without tickets JUST TO TAILGATE, your perseverance and passion just brought the entire event to a whole new level.

Sunday was an incredible day that I'll remember for a long time. After all, it'll be at least a couple months before that green icing thaws enough that I can scrub it off my table!

Talon.

Thanks for the dip bro. That stuff kicks ass.

Aint that stuff da shizznit?

Talon, would you mind TERRIBLY re-posting that recipe? Ive told SO MANY about that stuff and I know I no longer have the recipe.

Thanks man!

Thanks Beta, reading what you wrote is the ultimate compliment. Kinder words have never been written. You too have a very nice family. If you guys ever need anything don’t ever hesitate to contact us.

And THAT fellas, “is what it’s all about”. (Well, that and Buffalo-wing dip.)

Heh heh.
