RE: Boise Bowl o' Potatoes Travel Thread
I'm arriving late Friday into SLC. Will be driving to Boise early Saturday to arrive in time for the tailgate. Then up early Sunday to drive back to SLC for a mid-afternoon flight.

If anyone needs a ride to/from SLC and my schedule coincides with yours, you're more than welcome to occupy a seat in the rental car!

Send me a PM if you'll be there and/or want a ride and we can exchange specifics.

RE: Boise Bowl o' Potatoes Travel Thread
I kinda want to go -- but I would have, like, arrived on Wednesday night to be there for Thurs, Fri, and then Sat to leave Sunday. I would want to experience "Boise Land" and what the young babes have to offer out there, since it'd be such a long trip.

Make posters! Buy poster-board and markers -- make some cool slogans!!

I'm on a plane to SLC right now. Have a feeling tomorrow's going to be another great day to be a Bronco.

Go WMU, beat Air Force!

Hopefully I can keep the radio tuned to an ESPN Radio station that is airing the game and not Fantasy Football podcasts as I make my way to Gulliver, MI.

Your mission (if you choose to accept it): There will be plenty of Boise St girls roaming around that area. You are to hook up with one of them by taking such a gal to your hotel room at the end of the night after a WMU victory, to proclaim that you stuck an oar in a lady-Bronco of another color (blue).

Bonus Points: Picking her up by exclaiming: "Me-da-HOW?! You-da-HOW?! *WE*-da-HOW!!!!!"

Make your plan, work your plan, throw a party. Basics of what I learned at Haworth Management.

I hope that you made it home okay, stda. It was great to meet you and enjoyed the visit. Have a very Merry Christmas with the family and we'll see you around again.

Always proud to be a Bronco, RTB.

Yep, made it home very late this past Sunday. Did a tiny bit of sightseeing and swung by In-N-Out Burger for a delicious lunch on the way back to SLC, too.

Enjoyed meeting you as well; hope to see you in the future. It was a fun trip even if we left with the L.
