Championship Eve "Where-You-At and What's-In-Your-Cup" thread

Hot ass green tea with honey because I came down with a sore throat Thu that has since turned into bronchitis and clogged ears, despite the prescribed amoxicillin horse pills

A NC will definitely help me feel better. Watching the game at home with the wife, probably drinking more hot green tea and honey 

In Ann Arbor, imbibing Arbor Brewing cold IPA

Who will win the college football championship tomorrow

The College Football National Championship already took place yesterday, January 8th, 2024. In a thrilling contest, the Michigan Wolverines emerged victorious over the Washington Huskies with a score of 27-24. So, unfortunately, it's impossible to predict the winner of a game that's already happened.

Would you like me to provide some information about the game, or perhaps tell you about other upcoming college football events?

The 2024 College Football Playoff National Championship was a heart-stopping affair. Here are some key highlights:

Second Half:

• The third quarter was a defensive battle, with neither team able to score. Tension was high as both teams fought for every yard.

Sitting here waiting for the Sklar Brothers show to start. 

At a bar near my place in Colorado, having excellent fish and chips and a fake beer worthy of the adjective.

While it goes without saying that I envy those of you in Houston, in a way I envy those of you in Ann Arbor even more.  We watched the 97 Rose Bowl from a bar there and it was an unforgettable experience.  

Damn this has been the longest week ever.
 

Cooked three Tommy’s pizza (Columbus cracker crust style) clones tonight for the family paired with three strong pours of buffalo trace with a single rock. 

Down in Cancun for the week. Drinking some caipiroskas. Recruiting everyone at the resort to watch the game and cheer for Michigan. I even talked an OSU alum into cheering for the good guys tomorrow! Go Blue!!

I'm in San antonio, and I'm drinking Rob Roy's at my favorite cigar lounge. Cheers!

Just went to Dean’s Downtown on Main. Had a great vibe. Good drinks and some fun interactions with Huskies. Recommended.
 

Back at the bar at our hotel for tonight. Need to rest up and get the vocal chords warmed up for tomorrow. 

A hotel room in Santa Monica with my husband and daughter, on vacay. Drinking Throat Coat tea. Trying to decide what to do for the game. It's on at 4:30 here, so do we order food to pick up at halftime? Wait until the game is over? Will I really want to go out after that, either way? 

In Houston.  Staying at the Washington team hotel.  Husky fans are friendly.

Playa del Carmen.  Mimosa.
