The two biggest Wings fans in our crew of twelve had to leave the game early on Sunday. Tony had hockey (missed the OT win); and for some reason I thought Wu Tang would go on within three hours of doors opening at Congress (end of the second period).
Most of the Clan showed up - Method Man stole the show.
We sat on the VT side and most of the crowd was very polite. Even through the ugly win - both sides knew who probably wins that game most times.
We amped up pre-game with some crawfish and shrimp, and them some MacDogs.
The drive from Memphis to New Orleans has been the most pleasant leg. More trees and terrain and cattle. Google Maps led us around country backroads in search of places with names like "High Rollers Grill" for football watching and lunch. Sadly we ended up at Buffalo Wild Wings (high rollers doesn't open until 4p, fyi).
We didn't spend a lot of time in Memphis area. But here are some songs.
St Louis is not beautiful this time of the year. Nor is the drive: almost exclusively bare plots of farmland with the rare windmill. But she does host a few nice casinos in the downtown area, the Gateway Arch looks cool, and Pujols plays here.
Today's drive is to Memphis. And tomorrow's New Orleans.
Here's some St Louis songs. There weren't a ton to choose from.
No shooting on Sunday due to rain. But we did get some low quality golf in, and some chicken-steak-veggie grilling. And Pat's potatoes.
