I want to extend my sincere appreciation to those who joined us for the past weekend's festivities at Billy Bob's and the WVU-TCU tailgate party. We had a great turnout at both events and the TCU stands were full of fans proudly wearing the Old Gold & Blue. The best part of the weekend was watching our Mountaineers come from behind to beat TCU, taking the game to overtime for the 2nd straight year.

Special thanks goes to the following people who contributed to the events:

• Dr. Cilento, for the update on University events
• Gregg, for the support, marketing efforts, and raffle giveaways
• Pam, for selling the 50/50 raffle tickets and the tailgate cooking
• Beth, for conducting the raffle drawings
• Buck, for running out to get ice to restock the tailgate coolers
• Giles & Dan, for the backup parking pass, tailgate cooking, and extension cords
• Everyone who helped to spread the word--especially members from the other WVU Alumni Association chapters

Thanks again and Let's Go Mountaineers!

The DFW Chapter and the WVU Alumni Association will be hosting a small tailgate party for the WVU-TCU football game on Saturday, Nov. 2. Donations will be used to fund a parking pass in one of the donor lots adjacent to the stadium, as well as cover the cost of the food.


Tailgate Party
Due to the limited space, this will be a walk-up event limited to the first 60 prepaid guests. We will be serving pulled pork sandwiches, grilled brats, chips, soda, water, and a cookie. It is BYOB and we will supply community coolers stocked with ice.

Donations are $15 per person and may be made at:

Parking
For those driving to the game, there are a number of parking options. General parking is available at TCU Lot 8. It is expected that parking spots close to the stadium will be $20 and up.

The Paschal High School Athletic Booster Club offers nearby parking for TCU football games (about a mile from TCU's Amon Carter Stadium). For $10, they supply shuttle service to/from the stadium beginning 3 hours prior to kick-off and ending 45 minutes after the conclusion of the game.

Come out to Buffalo Joe's to cheer on the Mountaineers as we make the tough climb to become bowl eligible. Today's game is at 2:45 pm.

DFW Mountaineers will be participating in a pajama drive to collect PJ's for the WVU Children's Hospital. Pajamas of all sizes for boys and girls (infants through teens) are needed (new and unused items only, please). Please bring them to the watch party on Saturday. We will also accept cash donations to purchase pajamas.

Hey DFW Mountaineers...there's only 4 days left to get the $49 early-bird pricing on the WVU v. TCU Welcome Party at Billy Bob's Texas.

Thanks to all the Mountaineer fans who came to Buffalo Joe's for our WVU v. Texas Tech game watch. We had a number of new faces and welcomed a future WVU student (fall 2014) and marching band hopeful to the crowd.

The 50/50 raffle was a great success as well. The total value of the pot was $190, and since Kari bought the winning ticket, the entire amount has been donated to The Pride Travel Fund (pridetravelfund.com). For the 2013-14 school year, DFW Mountaineers has donated $340 to enable the Mountaineer Marching band to perform at locations across the state of West Virginia and the country. We will continue to support this at future game watches.

All WVU alumni chapters are taking part in a pajama drive during the 2013 football season. Pajamas of all sizes for boys and girls (infants through teens) are needed (new and unused items only, please). They will be delivered to the WVU Children's Hospital in early December. Please bring them to next week's watch party.

Don't forget to register for the West Virginia v. TCU Welcome Party at Billy Bob's Texas on 1 Nov 2013. Tickets are $49 and provide admission, Texas BBQ dinner, live entertainment, and a fun-filled night with your fellow Mountaineer fans, friends, and family. We hope to see you there.
