Another Typical MD beatdown

The Maryland tailgate started out a little rough with spicer deciding that rvs and buses did not deserve the same liberties as other vehicles and would not be allowed to park until three hours before game time. So the first few hours of the tailgate were without the bus which was, as expected, insufferable… I don't know how we used to tailgate without this thing. But eventually the bus was allowed in and things ramped up quick. We had a few oldheads show up, a few faces get painted, and a pretty solid tailgate which obviously carried over to the football field as Darren Evans pummeled Maryland. The postgame tailgate set a new precedent for recklessness with several dustups resulting in a few dicey moments with the fire, a tank bus owner being put on light-duty, and pretty much continued from after the game, through the night, all the way home, culminating on Friday evening with several people going home painted as kitties. All in all, it was a solid W in the parking lot and on the field.




This is where things started getting a bit reckless. At least the fire is still contained in the fire pit bowl at this point. That sort of creature comfort wouldn't last long. We have narrowed the root cause for all this to the rapid consumption of many delicious and amazing warm apple cider and captain morgan drinks. Our unofficial tailgating RV lot parents Ed and Lisa (proud owners of Sadie) were responsible for providing the beverage so the Tank Bus safely and confidently assumed that what happened afterwards was completely acceptable

Haunted Forrest

Well its been a while since the Tank Bus Blog has been updated. A few weeks ago we took a bus trip to a haunted forest somewhere in the middle of nowhere Maryland. We already know what you're thinking: "Holy crap, anywhere in MD is scary as hell and you guys went into the boonies?" Yep. The trip was a success and we even got a pumpkin out of it and a tailgating idea involving a chainsaw. Below are a few pics. It should be noted that while parked Tank Bus attracts random people and if they aren't careful the bus will leave before they can get off. It almost happened on this fateful Oct eve. Luckily the driver was able to hear their shill cries of stop and managed to stop the bus in time.
