This Oregon fan has achieved total comfort by tailgating in hooded pajamas. To me, this raises a couple of questions:
1) Do you think he sleeps in these, rolls out of bed in the morning, pours a drink, and heads straight to the tailgate?
2) How do you go to the bathroom?

During the summer and fall I like to consume mass quantities of beers that are made for mass consumption. Your cheap Americans (Bud Light, Busch Light), Mexicans (Pacifico, Dos Equis), and Wheat Beers (Mothership Wit, Red Brick Blonde). As the football season winds down I turn my attention to beer of a heavier variety. This year I’ve discovered the Anchor Christmas Ale. I’ve always been a fan of Anchor Steam and flirted with their Liberty before. But this year’s Christmas Ale has really hit the spot. Just the right mix of chocolate and mild spices to warm the belly during a cold tailgate. The beer has a pretty interesting story as well…
Every year since 1975 the brewers at Anchor have brewed a distinctive and unique Christmas Ale, which is available from early November to mid-January. The Ale’s recipe is different every year—as is the tree on the label—but the intent with which we offer it remains the same: joy and celebration of the newness of life. Since ancient times, trees have symbolized the winter solstice when the earth, with its seasons, appears born anew.
So I don’t know if the 2009 is par for the course, but it definitely receives the Drunken Tailgate approval. In addition to the great taste, this is just a great bottle and label. I’m not going to lie and say these things don’t affect my opinion. Drink up!
Keep your beer cold with personalized koozies and make a statement at the same time since you can have your koozie say whatever you want.

We’ve talked about disposable flasks before, and I think they are a great way to sneak alcohol into games. They can be concealed better than most flasks and they will easily pass through a metal detector. But what am I to make of the fact that Restoration Hardware now sells their own line of sneak-it-in disposable flasks? They cost twice as much as the original, but is that really a concern when your already dropping $260 for a model car or $60 for fake Chuck Taylor low tops. I guess we should expect Home Depot to start selling pre-made beer funnels and iTunes to start listing Power Hour mixes.

Need to take a bottle of Jagermeister around campus but are worried that a brown bag won’t keep it ice cold? Luckily your local liquor store may be selling bottles of Jager that come with these handy orange koozies. Theoretically this would also keep 1.75ml bottles of vodka cold as well. Which is good since I don’t imagine Ketel One will be featuring a koozie as part of their packaging anytime soon.

Unfortunately, we didn’t find out if this Georgia girl knew to turn the boot and make sure she didn’t spill. If you want to impress random tailgaters who also loved Beerfest you can pick up a from Amazon for just $25 (and add the DVD for $10 more).
