Hell yeah!

Deposit whiskey, receive wisdom.

I'll be there this week. This one feels winnable, and I think we need to win this one. LETS GOOOO

Finally we are going to try and win a game!

'Bout time!

I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me.

This guy was born for AME Fam!

Is coronavirus over yet?

But the thumbnail shows a white cleat?

It's a misdirection play

VTCC '86 Delta Co., Peru Hokie, Former Naval Aviator, Former FBISA, Forever married to my VT87 girl. Go VT!

Heading up with the family for this one. Doing my part for another ACC win!!!

I'll be there! Got my key ring of madness ready!

Game time decision here. Where is Eshiben with the weather reports these days?

"That's it guys. Let's get out of here. That cold drink's waitin' on us, let's go." - Mike Young after win no. 300.

Looks like eshiben is not a TKPC member, but I don't think I had seen him around here in a long time and I don't think he had much time to TKP, so I can understand not joining if you are not an everyday visitor.

yeah, he had been mostly away for almost 2 years, i think i recall he was working on his phd

Him and his wife also just had a baby, so life is busy for that man!

Excuses, excuses!

its gonna rain.gif

(add if applicable) /s

I'll be in Blacksburg, so expect rain. The last few I've had tickets to have been ECU 2018, Pitt 2019, Duke 2021 (rained points), Purdue 2023.

50-60% chance of rain, up until about kickoff, then chances of rain decrease as the game goes on. Expect about .16 inches of rain in the 24 hr period.

Temperature going to start at about 69ΒΊ (nice) at kickoff, dropping to about 60ΒΊ by the final whistle.

Not too cold, but a slight breeze with off and on light showers will necessitate the need for some long sleeves or a sweatshirt under a waterproof layer.

Hopefully we get more than 4 min in this time.

We put the K in Kwality

Wohoo!

Just don't look at our record wearing it 😬

agreed. and gloves too. Otherwise it's just SMS (Some Maroon Stuff), SMH

Onward and upward

And the numbers! They forgot and left those white.

So you can't see the holding on a white Jersey as easy

I'm still figuring this out.

There's a cell signal joke in here somewhere

Some Maroon Helmet?

Was this the last time it rained during AME?

"Nooooooooooo!"
~What happened?
"James Franklin to Virginia Tech...."
~Fuck me......*sigh*
"Oh my God.... They're gonna take all our recruits... like WTF bro...."
~*squints eyes in disbelief*

Good omens?

Those uniforms were the worst.

Hard disagree. The uniforms we have now are worse than those. Granted, those weren't my favorites either. But the current one is at or near the bottom of the heap

Onward and upward

Agree. Those weren't the best unis, but far better than just about everything we've rolled out over the last 10 years.

Texas A&M?

I believe that photo is from 2009 Miami.

Yeah, and Texas A&M was an earlier event of rain with AME. That one was fun.

Loved that game. My dad took me and my brother and justified it as us "escaping" from Hurricane Isabel.

"That move was slicker than a peeled onion in a bowl of snot." -Mike Burnop

I'll be there - driving down all the way from Corning, NY!

Visiting the local namesake factory? BTW love the Corning museum of glass in you r fair ton- saw it 15-20 years ago

From the 2018 VT-uva game-"This is when LEGENDS are made!"

Ha when I lived in Bburg I worked with a lady who had a couple fingers ripped off at the Corning factory down there.

"That kid you're talking to right there, I think he played his nuts off! And you can quote me on that shit!" -Bud Foster

We got an AME Field, everyone!

Except the green and white bits

(Tic. Dunking on myself here)

Onward and upward

Love it. Still wish they'd paint the end zones in, but this is sick.

My first thought was well, paint the endzones entirely! Would be perfect week to do it. bye next week to save on upkeep paint, then paint it again for Thursday night on national TV, then two away games to let it grow back.

Plan for the worst and hope for the best, not the other way around.
