Official Husky Ticket Project Boneyard Challenge and Roll Call

[GemParty]

I know there’s been a few hot sauce threads about this fundraiser that’s gone viral. Have you donated & tasted the sauce?

Yesterday I challenged the Boneyard on my video clip after I bought my first ever bottle of liquid hell.

The Sliders & Curveballs Podcast @Gempartyz partial transcript (not sure how to post 2min video)

.....”I love this challenge. In a time where we’re alone and isolated from one another, this is bringing our UConn family together. I’d like to challenge the fine men and women of the Boneyard. They’ve been working the mojo for decades! From Senore all the way to hot sauce.”

It’s really been an incredible fundraiser.

The 2nd half of my video challenges a CT company to gift match the entire fundraiser and double the fan effort.

Anybody got any corporate contacts? XL insurance?

UConn Twitter wants to know why our Roll Call thread pales in comparison to the Best CT Sandwich one?

It’s a little silly to think that is two distinct groups of people - the people here are the people on Twitter.

I donated, but cheated my ass off on the hot sauce part.

We didn’t have any and then when my daughter and I bought some, we bought something that was so off the wall that even a dot of it on a chip caused my contacts to float off my eyeballs. I got some on my hand and it left a mark.

Who else?

I donated but did not partake in the shot.

I think I’m going to need a stronger shot, than hot sauce, tonight.

Any idea what the total is after the 3 day weekend?

I agree and I liked your attempt at honey.

Same here

I also donated, but did not do the shot of hot sauce. Im not a fan of super hot and spicy foods. But, If there is ever a time to suck it up and power through, it would be for a UConn related fund raiser like this.

Halftime of the UConn/Tenn game, epic!
Bird, Lobo, studio crew. Hot sauce. Then we win!

I hate hot sauce, so doing a shot of it this morning wasn't the best way to start my day. Anything for the kids and Huskies though. Great cause and I was happy to donate.

Donated, but haven't done the shot. I don't think drinking the hot sauce is any big shakes. I used to put Franks (then Texas Petes) on darned near everything. Now I am partial to crushed red pepper, which is the base of most Louisiana-style sauces. No, that's not it. I don't see the point of doing it alone and I'm not posting it to Twitter. Besides donating is far more important.

Be that as it may, when the temp approaches 40+ on a weekend gameday, my group of usual suspect friends and I will probably plan an outdoor watch party, dependent on kids' activities of course. We'll (I'll) do it then.

Who knows? Maybe the cause will lose steam and we'll reinvigorate some life in a couple weeks and raise another $60 Gs.
