The Men Behind Your Favorite Liquor:
“One morning in 1911 [Jack] Daniel showed up for work early and couldn’t get his safe open. He flew off the handle and kicked the offending strongbox. The kick was so ferocious that Daniel injured his toe, which then became infected. The infection soon became the blood poisoning that killed the whiskey mogul.”

The Stacheout
October 13th, 2008From Uhaps.com comes this delightful find of the “Stacheout” taking place in Athens for the Tennessee game. Though the Stacheout was less recognized by the Georgia faithful than the Blackout against bama, it was infinitely more successful and entertaining.

Tailgating at Vandy: Photos
October 7th, 2008So word came through early in the week that Vandy was not your typical tailgating setup. There were lots of limits on where you could park, set up tents, etc. So I was prepared for an urban and roaming tailgate. Which of course you have to start with a healthy breakfast.
I was all prepared to park a few blocks from campus and roam from bar to bar, tailgate to tailgate, and carry some scotch along with me. However at the last second we came down with access to a private parking deck overlooking the stadium. It’s odd that basically no one else was up there but us. It took away from the excitement a bit, but the view was excellent.
Upon entering the stadium we figured out that you we could see our car from our seats. Which brought up the question: If we saw someone breaking in to our cars, would we leave the game to stop it? The consensus was no.
And one side note. From our seats there were magnolia trees block our view of the down and distance of the scoreboard. Which is an oversight on someone’s part.
