Our Mission

We are on a mission to:
- Capture the college football craze
- Attend the tailgates for 18 different high profile games
- Try to get into as many stadiums as we can
- Meet as many unique individuals as possible
- Listen to their stories about being a fan and/ or what life is like in their town/ city
- To take in the landscape, food, music, social scene, people/ culture of each of our stops
- To reconnect with friends and family across the country
- To update our fans with where we are, what we’re doing, who we’re doing it with through our website, twitter, facebook, flickr, youtube, email feed, mob texts, smoke signals, etc.
- Find unique culture, landmarks, restaurants, attractions on the road that the average American would not have seen
- Keep in touch with the new people that we meet during our travels
- Incorporate budget travel on the road
- Couchsurfing, hostels, RV parks, and ride shares
