> Monday, June 10th, the MN Homebrewers Association will once again stake a claim to tailgating spot #5 in Midway Stadium's parking lot for grilling, chilling, and swilling from 4:00 until 11:00. At 7:00, some attendees might even take their tickets and enter the stadium to harass the players from Fargo-Moorhead, harass the mascot, and harass each other. At least twice in years past we've had club members on the field for between-inning nonsense--some as cross-dressers, some with root beer as shampoo!

> There will be tables and chairs provided by the club. I'll need two volunteers (or just Bob Norman, with his TEXAS-SIZED CONTRAPTION!) to bring grills. You'll bring meat and some food to share (and homebrew, of course). The club will provide napkins, plasticware, and condiments.
>
> Tickets are $12 each, and children aged three and over should have one. The first order of business is to e-mail me to let me know that you're claiming a certain number of tickets. Then please pay via Paypal on the club's website, or send a check, PAYABLE to MHBA, to
