So much for our investment in meat, etc. ridiculous.

A well-known apartment complex in the A-town that sent out an email blast a few days ago stating it was ok to smoke weed on your patio had to follow it up with a please don't smoke weed outside due to the dry conditions causing fire hazards.

Agree, Alan. However, don't wait til the night before to make an announcement. Not when the ban was put in place last weekend.

Of course not. However, more than one person was told during the week that grilling would be allowed during tailgating, as late as Wednesday. They were told by the same person/department that put out an announcement Friday night that they had changed courses.

I saw the open burn ban last weekend, on Sunday I believe. And I started a thread on the subject at the beginning of the week. The University should have made a decision and an announcement way before the night before pre-game tailgating.

Again, I have no argument with the decision. It was the late timing that bothers me. And I wasn't the only one from what I heard today.
