<p>Our first home football game may have to wait - not sure I want to brave “soaking” rains. Ugh. Stupid tropical storm.</p>
<p>Oh well, I’ll be with my kid and that’s what’s important, right? I’m sure we will find a way to amuse ourselves. :)</p>
<p>If we do go to the game, does anyone have a link to what is and is not allowed in the stadium? I’m usually pretty good at finding this stuff but I can’t find anything. I didn’t see anything on the UAGameday site.</p>
<p>Do you guys think a drawstring bag would be considered bigger than 8.5 x 11? Although I guess it doesn’t really matter - I was looking for a way to carry the ponchos in the stadium, but it looks like we will be wearing them the whole time if we go.</p>
<p>EDIT: TXA, do you have a link to what you bought? :)</p>
<p>I am bringing the girls high school band ponchos They are full coverage and clear. Just better not rain at the high school game tomorrow night since DD2 will be there and we will be in Bama. </p>
<p>I do believe you can bring in a small drawstring backpack. That is what I think I took last year and plan on this year. Also think all the lower seats have backs.</p>
<p>My Frogg getup is the high Bibb pants with a full jacket…it is one of the better ones and I think the set cost about a hundred bucks.</p>
<p>I drive a big 150cc scooter back and forth to work most days and carry the Frogg Toggs in saddlebags… Rain can come up quickly on the Texas Gulf Coast too!</p>
<p>And, you can get really cold really quick, even on warm days, with the wind on you going 50+ mph.</p>
<p>I got them at Gander Mountain. I am a 5’-10" woman and purchased men’s to ensure the pants and jacket were long enough…</p>
<p>Crud, crud, crud, crud, crud. Well, at least I have lower seats, so won’t have to climb that ramp in the rain. Will run over to Walmart to get some ponchos this evening.</p>
<p>The QUEEN of bedazzlement, Class2012Mom of course! </p>
<p>No one is safe from her mad skills - no one.</p>
<p>Hint: Do NOT let her talk you into bedazzling your underwear - no matter HOW much sangria she sends your way. It will seem like a good idea at the time, but it’s really not.</p>
<p>Txbamamom, you should your setter and stones! NRDMOM is just somehow just setting me up to be pulled aside by TSA for extended screening again. She probably thinks my hot iron will be mistaken for a personal pleasure device. </p>
<p>Montegut, you could add a houndstooth ribbon bow to your hat if our paths don’t cross.</p>
<p>ROTFL! Be very wary of wearing too much bedazzle going thru TSA at the airport. BTDT! Offered to strip it off but that was not an option. Had to go to the secret room for a full on inspection. From now on, it is flying minus bedazzlement. I do not wish to have a date with Helga again.</p>
<p>The rain gear purchases might have worked - now James Spann is saying rain might be done by game time. Still gonna be a soggy tailgate but I’ll take it! Fingers crossed!</p>
