Friday night Jeff organized a tail gate party in the parking lot of Neff School and grilled hot dogs and brats with other people contributing to the supper. It all was delicious. Unfortunately, Emilee had to work so Abbey's friend wore her shirt. The front of the shirt says GL FOOTBALL and the back: TURNER, next line: Part of the, next: Family and Josh's number 66.

It’s necessary to walk the length of the restaurant and enter the cramped dark smoky pit area where you order from one of three pit men.
