Delaware v. New Hampshire

Post by Blue Hen Fanatic »

Delaware v. New Hampshire prognostication:

Cold slow prodding defensive game that has the harden frozen TUB beating back against the badly bruised hens and cats clawing it out in the trenches. A slow start for each offense results in 7-7 tie at the half, with flashes of offense just after the break, resulting in Delaware barely holding on to a 20-17 lead after three. A 4th qtr punt return for a touchdown and an interception in the redzone leaves Delaware on top at the end 27-17 :clap:

Put your little mittens on as this one is going to be a long cold drawn out slugfest in the frozen TUB :clap:
On December 12, 1775 the Continental Congress created a Battalion of minuteman from the three counties in Delaware. Kent county militia were fans and owners of Game Cocks; Fight'n Blue Hens as they were called. The Fight'n Blue Hens became known far and wide as the very best Fighting Game Cocks around. Thus, the Blue Hen was established.

This will have to be the unofficial thread since Suncoast already started the official one.

My unofficial prediction is that the Hens win 67-5 and the game is halted in the third quarter for thundersnow.

Nope. Saving the liver for tomorrow. Hopefully the trumpet gestapo does not notice my flask. :ugeek:

A buddy asked me if there was going to be a pat down upon entering. I said it's possible, but what's the likelihood they can feel a flask, hidden down by your junk with 3 layers on?

I've never been patted down at a Hens game.

Just put them in your sleeves - if you ever would get patted down, which I've never seen there but happens at the Linc all the time - lift your arms up - works every time.

I was scrutinized more heavily last week than I ever have been before. I had my flask in my left hip pocket and the security dude pointed at my right pocket. I fished out my wallet and phone and he waved me through. Diversion usually works.

BHBK, great tip with the sleeve. That's even better.

Is Biden coming? I think his presence at UD night games is bad for the Hens' mojo. Can't someone in DC concoct a crisis to keep him away?

I once hid a half-pint of Jack in an ankle holster for a game in Boone. There're plenty of ways to get by the man :beer:

What's the likelihood anyone's going to want to drink from that flask, after its been in said location?

Judging from my vantage point here in the Gold Lot, turnout looks pretty light. Maybe the people that actually work on Friday are late arriving. The Tub is looking good with the lights on and the BBQ pit smoke rolling through. Gonna be a cold one, boys. Hour and a half to kickoff!

Good luck to both teams. Looking forward to watching both for the first time this season.

Note to DE Stadium manager. Lights are a good idea for porta-potties at night. I think I peed in the correct corner. Urinals are in the front left, right?
