✴️ Freak's Friday before the Oklahoma game, admittedly off topic thread

[Unsafe08]

I’ll be watching the game on Sunday morning. At least I can skip the ads.

No trick or treaters here in Germany where we live.

Take 5

Germany's the cleanest country we've ever visited. The people are friendly, the food is great and the best beer in the world! We loved our 3 tours at Katterbach, Illesheim and Graf.

Up in NH took the kiddos trick or treating! Going to make a thing of chili and sit by pellet stove and cheer on the Big Orange!!! I have been up in NH after my military service and I keep seeing more and more TN fans up here!!! GBO !!!

For years, I never gave these threads more than a glance. Now, they've become a favorite. Reassuring, and interesting all at once, to hear what fellow Vol fans are doing in preparation for gameday. You guys and gals know how to do it up right.

Spent time with the wife last night watching Halloween and passing out candy. Today we're heading to TTU to spend homecoming with our daughter. We will stop somewhere good to eat and be home by kickoff.

As Meatloaf said, 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

*honestly I just don't really recall the people all that much. Maybe it was the beer

Teaching the kids about taxes this morning.

BTW, candy for breakfast ain't bad once a year

Amen to the Bier call. What is interesting is that each village has their own brewery and I've yet to have one that I didn't enjoy to the max. My least favorite was Hofbraus Haus in Munich but it was gut as well.

Watching the game from Ocala, FL while sitting on my couch with my best friend (wife) drinking some cold ones! It doesn’t get any better than that for me.

 

[MetalGuy]

Driving from GA today becuase we had to do the Halloween stuff last night. Got friends (including 2 OU fans) coming in from FL and NC that came in last night to hit Knoxvegas, and are likely very hungover.

370 trick or treaters. Good number but never got back to pre Covid levels

370!?!?

Some years I wish we lived in a bigger neighborhood, but maybe a few dozen trick or treaters is a reasonable number?

 

[kcvols1]

I'm getting old. There are way too many teenagers trick or treating.

You’re old enough to be wise that those are the punks you want to be most generous with!

Dried egg is a b!tch to get off brick, glass, and/or automotive finishes.

I don't believe a thread on here has ever stayed on topic.
My favorite treat? Candy Corn, ftmfw.

I was walking my 3 young children through a subdivision near our home, we live outside of town on a couple of acres. It was a madhouse. Mobs of teenagers. Many of the home owners ran out of candy at 7 pm.

Like I said... I'm getting old....

Our max was over 600 in 2019. We have friends in Sequoia Hills who have over 2,000

 

[The G-Tenors]

Set up the tailgate tents at G10 this morning. I arrived at 3:30am and was 12th in line. By 5am there were 25 or so, lined up to get a spot. Tents set up, quick breakfast at Waffle House, back home to take a nap. Now about to catch a ride back to the tailgate to get it going. Gonna be a long day, but we are amped and ready to go.

Yeah, “friendly” is not how I would describe the Germans.

Worked 16 hours, my phone won't log on to Volnation, had to dig out my old phone today

You have to do HH, because everyone will ask you if you went there. I liked it, but there is definitely a tourist vibe to it. I preferred Augustiner.

Did do HH. By far the best environment but best beer to me was Dom Hauf in Speyer. Had a great dunkel heffeweisen
