Yes, there will be a MUDBUGS XI - May 30
 
Are you kidding? We are Saints Fans. We dont melt. We've seen it.
We've done Hurricanes, Dirty Streets, Snakes, Alligators, and 21 years of football suckage. I, personally, have gone thru a windshield, and fallen off a mountain. I'll go, when its my time. You can say amen, or get mad.

So, we will proceed with MudBugs XI- the official Crawfish boil of the SETX Chapter of WhoDat Nation.

Beastmode is our Host, this year, as we had MBVII in his awesome home and yard, and it was Super.

We're all kicking in $20 or so for the Bugs... I typically get an extra sack, just in case..

Just hit us here, and let us know what you can bring: water, beer, ice, paper products, soda, SWEETS ! Sides... Cayenne, veggies, and all the stuff you put in Crawfish Boil. -- but check with Budsdrinker- he will be cooking.

Wear your Saints stuff, bring your Flags, Tents, and any fun Saints Memorabilia you want to show off. It tends to get ridiculous, which is fun.

For those unfamiliar, this will be our 11th such event (our gang also tailgates, when the Saints play at Houston, and we've found many random, fun reasons to assemble.) It Started with Hou-Yat, when he lived here. It grew and got ridiculous.. People come from NOLA, SA, and one guy drove from Michigan. I've hosted 3 of these myself, and its a buttload of work, so give Beastmode any help you can.

We're quite a sight, with our tents, flags, and clutter. WHODAT :bng:

Just let me know what time to arrive. I have canopy, table, chairs, pot burner, ice chests, flags and I'll see if Big Bubba will inflate.

PM me the address so I can google it and see if I can fit it in my schedule/budget. Are there reasonable hotels close? I've got a tent if not.

Hey Beast, if it's Ok my wife wants to bring our dog. She'll be on a leash and is extremely friendly with every living creature except possums.

Beastie, we may have not 1, but 2 media friends show up.
I wont say who they are, yet, as for now we're all pretending we dont like
special attention. ("Oh, yeah, I have that little day job... its nothing, really.)

That reminds me. We need to come up with a Saint to send an honorary invite. I've invited Bobby Hebert to the last one I hosted. HA.

I know you dont do FB (a sure sign of intelligence), but I have those guys from Cecil's Pub there. Will have a solid HC by thursday, and then Big John and I will know where we're getting the bugs.

Did a lot of prep this weekend. Cleaned crawfish tables, the Taj Mahal tent, chairs, tote full of gear. Ready to go. Getting some pineapple, sausage, asparagus to throw in the boil later but fully confident barring weather we will have a great time.

I sent a tweet to the Saints, Sean Payton, Thomas Morstead and everyone's favorite LB to hate Scott Shanle since they seem to have the most activity on twitter. Doubt I'll get a response but it's out there.

Beast, what other vegetables and ingredients do you need?

I have 2 8 ft. tables. and some extra chairs.

Beastmode 05-27-2020 02:15 PM

Re: Yes, there will be a MUDBUGS XI - May 30
 
I have 2 round crawfish tables, 1 long table. Have 7 chairs. Seems like most bring chairs. Maybe the tables...

Nice. Hope the weather holds up. Getting lots of rain last few days. Don't wear your blue suede shoes.

LOL. good way to put it. One great thing about people who live in SE Texas, and people who live in Southern La, is we all come from a tropical mud swamp. If you're from New Orleans or Houston, you have the same weather as Saigon.

I got my rubber boots.
SKEETER SPRAY, people.

You think a couple fans would help?

Hey Guys, I'm driving to a place in the morning, over by Baytown, same place i used to get my bugs, when I had the old swamphouse. I like their crawfish, and all yall liked it, too, every time I hosted.

I plan on going to the store Saturday morning on my way to Kingwood. I will pick up the boiling seasonings. Is there anything else you need me to pick up?

Everything is ready. Grass cut, Taj Mahal tent, tables, chairs, water hose, power. Getting pineapple, asparagus, garlic in the morning. Could use some crawfish trays. I only have four.

Beastmode 05-30-2020 12:07 PM

Re: Yes, there will be a MUDBUGS XI - May 30
 
We're ready to roll. I got potatoes, pineapples. Could not find garlic. Music is good.

HAHAHA..

T, thank you so much for your hard work and for hosting us, and for having
an awesome House, and for having an awesome Wife to put up with us, and for playing 90s rock so well on your Git Tire, and for cheesecake, and your hospitality. Also, you have the biggest tent in the world thats not either with Barnum and Bailey, or in the Middle East. But seriously, When I realized I couldnt do it on The Farm this year, you were first on my mind. Thank you!

I have some pics, also, for later. But I just wanted to thank you.

Thank you Budsdrinker and Gulf Gambler for the awesome artistry and also for all the tents and flags, and decor and More Awesome Wives.

Somebody had to step up and make this happen. It is not optional. We Did.

Start thinking of an excuse to throw a party in August.
