Well, the more I think about it I guess that wouldn't be too bad for an evening or two? :P :-P :razz:

JB, you're good.

by **mistero** » Fri Sep 12, 2008 10:04 am

Swerb,

I'll be there around 3pm. Will there be anyone coherent enough to give me a wristband at that point or should I just take one from one littered bodies?

by **Lubber** » Fri Sep 12, 2008 3:28 pm

Go Steelers

Steelers 34
Browns 17

My guess is that JB will be unconcious somewhere on the asphalt by then. Just rip it off his wrist.

(Will be a reg table of some sort)

Just a reminder: Muni Lot likely to be filled by 10 AM tomorrow.

So if coming down after 10, make arrangements to park elsewhere and to get some sort of transportation from there to Muni.

Rich, I'll be there at 8:30

Driving a black Chevy pickup. I'll bring along a pop-up shelter, a couple tarps and a few extra chairs if that will help

Wear a big sign that says SWERBIE! and keep an eye out for me :-) :smile: :)

Just look for the one dark haired dude sitting alone at the only flippin' vodka bar in the lot. He'll be the one with private security and a band setting up around him.

Likely the only guy wearing a "Swerbinsky" jersey as well. Just a guess.

by **swerb** » Sat Sep 13, 2008 1:23 pm

Yeah, I'll have a Swerb #19 white Browns jersey on.

People always tell me I look like the cat that banged the apple pie in "American Pie".

Looking to get down there at 8:00-8:30.

Also, I'm bringing my cornhole boards. Prolly wouldn't be a bad idea if a couple other people brought sets.

by **Erie Warrior** » Sat Sep 13, 2008 8:24 pm

Tear it up boys, someone take some pics to post too. Fuck Pittsburgh.

no.... freakin.... way

Also, you know it is hitting full tilt right now at the tailgate of tailgates. If I could only be a fly on the wall. :lol:

clutch your beers tight, boys. It is f'n windy.

by **mswerb** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 12:32 am

Hopefully someone has pictures to post soon.

by **Bayou Tribe** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 12:35 am

Hell, I'm just hoping everyone gets home in one piece.

by **mistero** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 8:57 am

I saw Swerb. I saw JB. I saw the bartender about 20 times.

Someone tell me it was just a bad dream. I should be dead.

The tailgate was epic though.

Great job Swerb.

In addition to that we will have the jug available for any donation you care to make.

Great time once again yesterday at Swerbapalooza! And, THANKS to Swerb, Peeker!, Pipe, DiminishingSkills, General, FUDU, and many others for their generous donations yesterday (as well as to those like Madre and jack_tors that have donated online).

If you have not yet had an opportunity to donate to this worthy cause and wish to do so, you may do so here.

Thanks to all.

by **consigliere** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 10:14 am

I think Swerb was shooting some video. Saw a couple pictures being snapped by others too.....so maybe they will make their way here. Had my wife gone there would have been a whole online photo album of about 1000 pictures on Snapfish by now. :P :-P :razz:

Good to see everyone, good times, and the beer and food spread was awesome. The band was good.....just something about a band playing live at a tail gate.

Right at about 6:30 boy did that wind storm come rolling in. We got outta there at just the right time.

by **swerb** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 12:20 pm

Official tally:

Tore through 6 cases of vodka and 95 cases of beer by 6 PM, at which point we sucked the place dry.

125 cheesesteaks, 200 bacon wrapped sirloins, 2400 clams, and 650 wings.

I feel like I ran full speed into a brick wall yesterday. Like 10-12 times.

Great time though. Damn if the Browns didn't have to go and spoil it. AGAIN.

by **Bayou Tribe** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 12:58 pm

Also, not sure why but I thought "drunk guy eating steak" was way funnier than it probably should have been. For some reason I can't stop snickering watching that guy cut a piece of steak for 2 minutes before he can manage a bite.

It's the funniest thing I've seen in months. I was in tears recording that.

So was Lisa.

Beautiful.

by **Bayou Tribe** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 2:34 pm

I've got a guy in my office rolling. He's watching it and giving play by play to the guy across the hall.

"Cutting............ cutting............. son of a bitch.......... still cutting....... he took a bite! Cutting.............. cutting again........."

by **swerb** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 2:42 pm

Funniest part of the whole story is how rare that steak was.

Foreman cooked the steaks for another 15 min before he called the medium rare people to the line.

He demanded the steak. Foreman says, "it's not cooked". My boy says "F it, give it to me anyway".

Classic.

Last 2 min of that You Tube is absolutely priceless. When he finally gave up and just picked up the steak and started gnawing on it like a rabid dog I was laughing so hard I had to stop shooting.

No clue, but he reeked of beef jerky.

At least his fiance' was cool.

:lol:

by **skatingtripods** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 4:00 pm

That guy must be one hell of a drunk driver. So attentive to detail.

And Peek, I'll assume that salute was for my poor ass that couldn't make it down there.

Howd you like that jerky?

by **peeker643** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 6:03 pm

Damn looked like a nice tailgate. Gotta love how cranking out some Poison still brings out all those fat chicks :lol:

by **leadpipe** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 9:52 pm

Is it too late to enter "Drunk Guy Eating Steak" at Cannes. Outstanding.

Great time. Good to meet many of the guys.

And as Peeker alluded to, 4th quarter had a nice girl, and enough jerky to choke a horse.

by **swerb** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 10:13 pm

Here's another one. Amazing how little of all this I actually remember.

Tom Bergeron might give you guys $10k for it.

by **mistero** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 7:12 am

Haven't been able to open the videos yet (youtube blocked at work) but I hope to god the steak eater isn't me.

I know I broke about 5 plastic forks trying to cut that beast.

Tasty.

by **noles1** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 10:18 am

Swerb/Tony,

Great meeting you guys. Tailgate looked like a blast, definitely put me down for next time.

If the Browns could always perform like the fans do in the tailgate I think they'd be 16-0 every year. Just walking around at 7:30 (when I got there) the place was packed and people were having a blast. Not to mention the weather was great up until about 6:30.

Noles, glad we got to bump into you. Hope to see you at the Ravens tailgate......thankfully a much shorter one!

I have no idea how anyone who got there at 6-7am survived.

by **Magic Brownies** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 9:55 pm

Swerb,

We had a great time at the party. Thanks for everything. Next time could you tell the Browns not to Fuck it up?

by **General** » Thu Sep 18, 2008 7:48 am

Now that I have had time to settle back down on the Gulf coast....what a frickin' party!!!! Nice to see some of the guys again and finally meet Oktane, John, and the illustrious JB and his lady, who despite her Steeler leanings is a great "chick". It was a "new low" and yes "the Bone Lady" is still hot in my book. In a trailer park sort of way that is.
