Describe your typical Bulldog game day: Oh wow. Wake up at the crack of dawn and make a mimosa. Head to our signature tailgating spot off Hancock St. downtown, tailgate for a few hours which includes lots of dancing and calling the Dawgs, and occasionally being forced into shots by our parents (yes, our parents). Head to the game, lose my voice screaming for our Dawgs, and most of the time, leave with a W on our record.
