We're hoping for a 40 person tailgate, which would be the largest crowd we've had.
Last season our biggest was around 35.
Recruiting new Owl fans, one hot dog at a time…
Wisconsin vs LSU game will be on the big screen - look for the blue Jeep Wrangler with the FAU flag pole off the spare tire.Posted On: Aug 23rd 2016, 8:17 PM #357914
Nice.
You guys aren't the former Owl Rangers, right?
Whatever happened to them?Posted On: Aug 24th 2016, 6:13 PM #357937
No, different group.
Have been attending since the first season but the group really grew last season.
Everyone has a blast there and have been inviting friends.Posted On: Aug 24th 2016, 6:19 PM #357940
Let's just say there was a lack of true leadership in the Owl Rangers and nobody joined after the 2013 football season.

Wow, yeah. Good question.dusky256fc said
A source in SG tells me the bonfire has been moved to Homecoming.
There's a "Nocturnal Tailgate" from 6pm-2 am on Friday Sept 2nd. It's described on Owl Central (the FAU events and club space, which also had a bonfire listing last year but has nothing now) as "In order to establish longstanding tradition, the President wants to establish a late night tailgate to occur before the first football game of every season."
Right, but we do that already... it's called the 24 Hour Tailgate, which was a tradition unique to us on the college level, as I understand. Instead we get a wimpy 8 hour tailgate?
I get that students party all night and get tired so they leave early in the game but this is like a rite of passage, like jumping in Mirror Lake during Muck Fichigan week.

I don't know the reason why, but the bonfire is no longer being done.Posted On: Aug 28th 2016, 11:09 AM #358025
That seemed like it was really turning into a tradition, why kill it?
GO OWLS!

I got the same thing Matt. Six vouchers for each ticket. Didn't know anything about it and still don't . I will assume it is good for one food or one beer.Posted On: Aug 29th 2016, 7:06 PM #358078
I didn't receive any vouchers, are either you or Matt in the deck? Don't want to bother calling if it is specific to certain areas.
GO OWLS!

I received vouchers today as well. I sit in the Hyundai deck. They are just for free popcorn……. A nice gesture I guess.
