Just so y'all know what is going on and why I'm being the way I am.
		 
		
			The tent set up for the whole season all 6 games and the 2 parking passes: 25,000
		 
		
			Season Tickets to giveaway at the tailgates for watch party guests: 1700
		 
		
			Food Budget for each game: SJSU - 500, UTEP - 850, SHSU - 1150
		 
		
			Halfway through the season and without the Florida Game we are at 29,200 in costs
		 
		
			We've sold 41 season passes for ~4200 in Gross Sales. 
		 
		
			We've sold other walk up and stuff for ~3600 in sales outside of that.
		 
		
			We had an incredible donation for 6000 at the beginning of the season from one of our users.
		 
		
			So I'm out 15,325 right now with 3 games left. (would have been 21,325 without the donation)
		 
	
	
		
			 
		 
		
			We were doing better than that last year when it was donation based and charging $40 for Georgia we cleared 9k. 
		 
		
			Vandy was supposed to be about 350 people @ 45 bucks. and food cost was going to be ~5k (10k back)
		 
		
			Arky was supposed to be about 500 people (Georgia last year) @ 60 bucks with multiple whole hogs etc. food cost was going to be close to 9k with the budget for helpers, serving etc (21k back, finally in the money a little)
		 
		
			TAMU was supposed to push as close to 1k as we can @ 65 or higher. Food cost was gonna push 10k with services and hired help etc. (50k back, rolled into tailgate fund)
		 
		
			Even if we revise everything down to breakeven. 
		 
		
			Vandy 250 @ 35 food cost of 1875 ($7.50/head)- 6.875k net
		 
		
			Arky 250 @ 35 food cost of 1875 ($7.50/head) - 6.875k net
		 
		
			TAMU 300 @ 35 food cost of 2500 ($8.33/head) - 8k net
		 
		
			 
		 
	
	
		
			 
		 
		
			 
		 
		
			I get that a bunch of you want a place to come and stay and be or whatever, but come the fuck on guys I'm working my balls off, losing a fuckload of money to do it and not enjoying Saturdays with my boy so that the people that do show up can have a good time? I'm fucking over it. 
		 
		
			Florida is still TBD, but it could be as bad as 25k loss on the day and as good as 10k loss
		 
		
			That's roughly in the best case scenario 30k I could have spent doing WAY different shit for the website and the community or if I was a greedy guy I could just keep it for myself, but I don't treat the Surly pool as a pool for me.
		 
		
			That's 30k we could have done in extra NIL deals, it's 30k we could send a group who would vlog an RV trip to away games. So yeah I get all of you want a tailgate, but unless you get fucking people to come to the god damned tailgate I'm not going to do it anymore.
