We are the de-facto NIL tailgate now, but we haven't had much traffic because I wanted it to be more of a donor haven instead of a donor attraction tailgate. This just moves into a solicitation phase

Short, short version..........Papa Sanders was a mentor to Anthony Hill, so much so that he let him borrow his truck for special occasions which included provisions. Papa told him the players at A&M were out of control and he would get in trouble if he went there. If he wanted to be successful he needed to go to Austin because Sark had control of his program.

The food was great, shit, the whole tailgate was great. Thanks @immamac, it was fucking awesome. Also great meeting your wife and kiddos, that woman must be a saint on general principle. @justhookitnice to meet you again, and chat with your lady friend. 
 

we’ll probably see y’all again for Kansas.

Good meeting your wife and you again too. And meeting for the 3rd time in the club. See y’all at one of the next ones.

Thanks @immamac as always and @MissingInAction and @Nicole44 pleasure as always.

Tailgate will be moving locations and joining forces with Texas One Fund. 

We will have 4 student athletes from Women's and Men's Basketball and perhaps some members of the coaching staff at tailgate doing Q&A, signing stuff and doing photo ops. Tell everyone you know, we will be an NIL tailgate where it is strongly recommended that you sign up for Texas One Fund or Burnt Ends

Does money dropped into the tailgate fund end up with either? because that's what I did last week.

Do you know the location yet?  Haven't been able to make the first two this year, but planning on making the rest.

Were they hosting a separate tailgate, or they want to host as well and the combination at a larger spot made more sense?

Just curious how it came to be. It makes perfect sense to be together. 

Well I co-founded Texas One Fund and we threw the most insane tailgate ever in Tuscaloosa that generated over 100k annualized in monthly donations. I think they want to do that instead of the lame stuff they were doing on bevo blvd which had pretty much no results.

Fucking crazy wild result from that. And obviously finding the right spot/atmosphere makes a world of difference.

This just moves into a solicitation phase of donation/subscription to Burnt Ends and Texas One Fund to really get NIL activated on the ground.

Our first Food and Bev sponsors will be:

Texas Style Barbecue from Pinkerton's BBQ

Tailgate ready beer and seltzers from Faust Distributing

Delicious spirits and ready to drink cocktails from Milestone Brands

Maybe we can become Surly Bevo if we are tight with the Administration.

@immamac what tailgate next year is going to be more insane, Michigan or Aggies? Debating on which away game of those two I'd like to attend.

Well, for one of those games...most of us will be staying in a dystopian shithole from a bygone era populated by the dumbest Americans in a vapid black hole of misery and discontent that the rest of the country uses a punchline when discussing places they would not send their worst enemy.  As for the other game, we'll be staying in Detroit.

It took them this long to figure out that plying people full of booze loosens the wallets?

Now wait just a minute. You mean to tell me that some message board has gotten a leg up on a state university’s efforts with regards to NIL? Unpossible.

I still can’t wrap my head around this. Immamac is aggy. How/why/what?

That was fun. We should do it again. 

Because community matters, and our community kicks fucking ass.

Texas would not be where they are in the NIL landscape without Surly. Would never bite the hand that feeds it

1) If by "not be where they are" you mean "Basically was created out of thin air and then graciously gifted to" then, yes.
2.) I would never say that this, or any other administration, wouldn't be stupid enough to fuck it all up. It's pretty easy to dismiss and fuck something up that most people still don't even understand.

@immamac So is there a new tailgate location? I'm assuming you're amping this shit up to 13 now. 

yeah - I've started reaching out to all my media contacts to promote it as well from the traditional media side of things. AAS, KVUE, KXAN etc if anyone has any contacts they have please send them my way via DM or intro me via rick@surlyhorns.com we want to get the word out about the NIL tailgate as much as possible to get as much traffic to the tailgating area as possible. 

Our goal for the Kansas game is to raise 10k annualized. That is 38 Bobby Layne level Texas One Fund subscriptions or ~45 if you mix in a few burnt ends subs here and there.

yeah for Kansas it will be dead centered in the LBJ lawn on the upper sidewalk not the one by the road. If Kansas goes well we are going to a bigger 2 tent setup directly behind the LCL main stage. 

Tent 21 for Kansas and then the highlighted burnt orange area for the rest of the season if we meet our Kansas fundraiser goal. (we were in T11 for reference)
