    I saw them selling those on the side of the road as you made the walk to the Berea Training Camp enterance. At the time it was in the mid-80 degree weather and they didn't look so appealing. I think I'll get one for the wife though, better than dragging a blanket from the tailgate area to the stadium and back.

    Hey, I think that is MarkO in the center!

    I wouldn't be caught dead out in weather that cold.

    When you say non appealing, is that because it was summer or is it because they looked cheap and useless?

    Didn't look appealing in the warm weather ... who cares about a fashion statement once the temps drop and the chicks stop coming to the games.

    Good point

  • How warm do you think these things are?

    Can't believe I'm seriously thinking about buying a snuggie. I must be out of my mind.

    Mark,

    Well am sure with a nice bottle of Scottish whisky, some Orange stuff, and few other concoctions that will be on offer at this Tailgate, the cold will just be a distant memory, until the drink wears off anyways, so best make sure dont stop drinking til get back to warmer climates.

    I've already told you, early December in Ohio isn't even cold. It's just football weather.

    The game is about 3 weeks away and it was 50-degrees this entire past week. Add some stiff beverages straight from the bottle and it feels like 62-degrees.

    Snuggie ... 🙄

  • Or it's going to be snowing like he'll and 22 degrees which will feel like 12 below.

    I agree....early Dec isn't usually that cold...the odds of having a day in upper 40's is about as good as having a day in the 20's...50's about as good as having a day in the teens.

    Either way it isn't all that cold...and I don't care about California....my body is acclimated to southern temps...Fla, Ala, Tn....Cal isn't that much warmer on avg...I actually look forward to a cold weather game or two...reminds me of my roots

  • Well that makes me feel better. It's just as likely to snow as it is to be nice and toasty and 50.

    I look forward to the cold weather games myself as well. But I look forward to watching them on my tv not sitting in the stands.

    That was funny, anyway on the exact day last year 12/6/08 it was a high of 29 low of 15 with 3 inches of snow. Plus the wind chill off the lake and you got a blistery white out hell. You better grab that snuggie just in case

    I wonder if it's too late to cancel my flight.

    Once or twice a year I can adjust.

    Having season tickets, I do have some cold weather gear.....if you don't....buy some foot warmers....little packs you can place under your toes that produce heat for 4-5 hours......you can buy them for a buck each at any good outdoors store....I assume you have those where you live....heck Bubba....i will bring you two...put them in your shoes a little before you break the tailgate lot. You will be good to go until 7 PM...and by then you are walking again.

  • Ask me "purty" and i will bring some real shine...not the fake stuff, though the guy I get it from does a nice job and cuts it so it is "only" about 160 proof...no need going blind to warm up.

  • I can probably find me some foot warmers, we have REI stores here. I'm tempted to get the snuggie, just in case but I'll wait a bit longer to check out the forecast.

    As I've told Skippy before, the warmest thing I own is those 3/4 length golf windbreaker jackets.

  • LMFAO ... Nice new snuggie ... feet warmers ... all you need is a hat!

    Fitting Stan, we are the Court Jesters of the NFL.

    BTW Mark if you're worried- between my cold weather cycling and mountaineering, I have enough cold weather gear to spare to mount an expedition to Antarctica if need be. Let me know.

    I'm only worried about dying of exposure. I don't think the snuggie is for me. I'd rather try to keep warm drinking orange shit than wear that thing. I'm hoping that it isn't 29 and snowing and closer to the balmy 50 that skippy has been promising.

    But as we get closer, I'll get in touch with you for more cold weather gear!

  • Seriously, we went to a Browns game so many years ago, and it was a blizzard, really, really cold.

    I found out that the inflatable browns helmets actually do a great job of keeping the wind off your face,

    insulates from the cold pretty well.

    Well, it doesn't look as dumb as the court jester hat.... GGG
