I missed Saturday's game due to a scheduled trip before the Dynamo schedule was announced. I was at the first game, joined the ARMY and tailgated. We had a great time.

More imortant, did ya'll float the kegs???
My parking passes arrived over the weekend, the next home game can't get here soon enough!!!:D

Tailgating was awesome - so overcrowded that we're going to have to make the space twice as big. I know we floated keg 1 pregame, pretty sure we made a good start on #2 before marching in singing and drumming.
Also need to organize some volunteers (even some kind of rotation) to help out poor Jason. The treasurer and VP were getting pounded collecting money for memberships and tailgating, giving out receipts, and checking IDs etc. However, they did a great job - only a 2-5 min wait in our will call/ticket lines ;-)
We need to split up those duties for tailgating - probably need a couple people collecting tailgating money (including checking membership cards, giving out new cards, and checking IDs), one person dealing with new memberships (collecting forms and money), and someone checking for ID's/badges over at the keg.
I'd suggest all that get setup at a table outside the tailgate area... and that Johnna and Jason are none of those voluteers but there helping collect money and writing receipts, but also able to float around and enjoy the tailgating experience with the rest of us.
Several of us also have to miss out on 30-45 mins of tailgating because we go in to setup flags/banners.

Actually Gorley, thanks for bringing that up. I had meant to post something here and forgot.
We definitely need help for the tailgates. Basically, at these last 2 tailgates the treasurer and I have been at the gates taking money, applications, etc etc the whole time. That's not fun for anyone. We would definitely need volunteers for a shift of like 30 minutes or an hour if we can't get enough volunteers.
I just want to be able to get up and walk around the tailgate without feeling that I've left Jason all alone with no help. And I'm sure Jason would like to be able to chat with everyone too. Please PM me if you want to volunteer. It would help us out alot.
