Big 10 Football Tour

Well I spent the last few weeks working the phone and email and as a result of my efforts, I now have 2 tickets to the Rose Bowl.  Even better, I also got a free $40 parking pass! 

The tickets are pretty impressive, standing 8" tall and 3.5" wide.

Attending the game with me will be Josh McCormick, who attends the University of Oregon and came up with the Big 10 Tour logo before the season even began.  It'll be nice to reward with with a seat at the game after all of the work he put into creating the logo you see on the home page.

So I still have the obstacles of getting to the airport on time, the cooperation of the Milwaukee weather, and a few other potential hangups. 

It should be one heck of a week out in California.  Follow my progress on Twitter, Facebook, or simply by reading the Rose Bowl recap page. 

My mother sent me the very appropriate gift shown below, and I hope that everyone else received what they wanted for the holidays!  Happy New Year!

We're back from one heck of a weekend in Minneapolis!  We received a private tour of TCF Bank stadium and competed in some Man Vs Food challenges.  Check back Sunday for a recap of our visit!

In the meantime, the post on Michigan State is live!  Check out our review of the game in East Lansing!

Next up is Northwestern, which thank god is less than 2 hours away from Milwaukee.  We'll be arriving in Evanston, IL early on Saturday morning, and we'd like to meet some Wildcat fans!  Get in touch with us to stop by the tailgate & potentially be featured on our site!

If you know anyone with access to tickets at Illinois, Iowa, Purdue, Michigan, or Wisconsin, please please please let us know because that is proving to be our largest expense and our biggest challenge to overcome on a weekly basis.
