I'm new to the board. Just joined after years of lurking. My wife and I will be making the one hour drive over to Champaign to see the Huskers. We would love to tailgate with some other Husker fans and meet your son. Thank you!

I just got a call from the fellow in charge. Illinois will not let them put up a huge tent like in the past unless they buy 50 single game tickets. So they will have 4 smaller tents. A$$holes, They have 6 parking spots with room around the area. Grassy field.

Husker banners, PM me if you can't find the tailgate and my son will direct you. Big lot. First come first parking. They try to have the tailgate in the middle of the lot

The store called and asked how many HuskerMaxer's were going to attend the tailgate. They want to have enough food and beverages for everyone. Smoked pork loin, burgers, hotdogs, mac and cheese, cheesy potatoes, and other sides. Bloody Mary's, pop, water and beer. If you might be able to make it, please let me know and I'll relay it to them. It doesn't have to be a solid yes, just an idea of how many would help. Should be a great time, Lot 31, Toyota of Danville tent, Husker signs.

They will be ready around 9am

Ask for my son Matt, he will take care of you guys.

Very rough guess… there are 6 of us but we will first start and pregame at my daughter’s apartment. Then I hope to head toward the stadium and hit the tailgate. Lots of variables.

Thanks again.

Let’s get a win and get things back on track!!!

That's great, Hope that you have a great time. Lot 31 is pretty big. They try to have it on the middle of the lot. It's first come first serve.

Don't want to name names. I just talked with the fellow putting on the tailgate, who lived in Beatrice. He mentioned that a lot of the football players parents are going to show up at the tailgate. Plenty of food, pastries, donuts, pastries for the morning, beer and Bloody Mary's, pulled pork, pork loin, burgers, hot dogs and sides. Should be a great time for everyone that can make it.


Lot 31, Toyota of Danville and Ford of Tuscola signs, along with Husker banners.

The parents actually had a tail gate at the Holiday Bowl in 2010

My daughter and I got invited with David Max and it was a lot of fun
