Cleveland Browns!!!

The Muni Lot!

Steelers at the Browns and the party starts Saturday Night...
One of the biggest rivalries in the NFL is the Pittsburgh/Browns game. So, when Scott, Mark, Mike and Steve of Tailgate Dawgs.com and the Dumb Dawg Bus invited me to join their tailgate this year, I couldn't refuse.

We pulled into the infamous Muni Lot Saturday at 12 noon for a Sunday evening game. The Browns fans came out and we tailgated into the wee hours of Sunday morning...

The Story

The Shots

Wee hours...

A few brats, some cold beverages and a football game later landed me in the hospital with a separated Clavical. Sling and all, the doctor released me back to the Muni Lot early Sunday morning for a full day of tailgating.

The blacktop was packed from the early morning. The Braylon Bunch and Meg's new Goat were out in force encouraging Browns' fans to take part in their 8 person ritual.

Just across the aisle, the Muni Lot Mafia was cooking up something good on dis most special of occasions. Great food boys. Love the Ziti recipe!

Talk about going whole hog, TWO separate groups were doin' em. One was smoked and one on a spit. Amazing smells and even better taste. Going all out, or should we say grilling all out, is how they do it in Cleveland.

Then, there is the TAJ! A new RV this year, very well painted. Here's the deal, if you're in the Muni Lot on game day, you go by the TAJ, do a shot and get a sticker. The stickers are strategically placed, so you have to be prepared. But, I guess that's what the shot is for. Go get "Crowned at the TAJ!!!"

Final call: The Muni Lot - always an adventure!

Culinary Fun of the Week!

Hog on a spit! Notice the #7 burned into the side. They were out to get Roethlesberger.
