tailgating sans the beer (not really)
Even in tailgating, I find myself on the healthy side of life. And it doesn't even suck that bad.
Todays' Chief tailgate menu included shrimp gumbo and cajun chicken sandwiches. Not the normal high-fat, high calorie selection normally found across the Arrowhead parking lot, but, damnit, I really do make the best cajun sandwiches this side of what's left of New Orleans.
I like it spicy. And I forget that some people can't handle the spice. Oops. But no one complained.
The gumbo was a new adventure which turned out tasty as well.
It is almost sad. I love the tailgate. Almost more than the game itself. And it kills me that I am finding joy in the healthy side of tailgating.
Sure, the sixer of Corona I put away in the 2.5 hours of tailgating b/f the Chief's game probably wasn't ideal 2 weeks before Ironman, but, hey, considering that this is the first time I have put away a six-pack in the past 4 months, well, it was inevitable. I have plenty of time to sober up.
sigh.
I miss beer.
Oh, and if anyone out there is interested in going to a Chief's game, let me know. It is going to be a long season.
