They've promised to set me up in the HD's suite to watch the game during the reception!

Well when you're not busy then we can probably head over to City Grocery Bar or the one at Bouré. Their Bloody Marys are divine.

Sure! I bet the Blind Pig Pub or Proud Larry's would have it. If not there then Buffalo Wild Wings.

I have known people to set up big screen televisions at wedding receptions when the couple were inconsiderate enough to schedule their wedding during college football season.

True! But I don't think the folks in MS are too concerned about Alabama's football schedule - though I can't understand why they aren't!

Our Zeta daughter's wedding was in late September in Birmingham. You can bet there were a lot of antsy men! Well, ours was in early December but some big game (Florida-Florida State?) was played that day (who would have thought?) and several guys kept sneaking out listen to their car radios.

LOL- LOVE IT! My husband (an avid NFL fan) proposed in December- we got married the following June. My mother (thinking I might be "in trouble") wanted to know why so fast... I had to explain, Ole Miss Football starts August and (hopefully) runs through January, NFL starts September and runs through Feb. Its too damn hot to get married down south in July and I can't get a dress by May... so if I want to get married within the next two years it HAS TO BE JUNE!

I was a July bride, because that's when our Church was available outside of football season.

Thanks for all the tremendous advice and things to consider. Does anyone have a rough idea what hours each day rush is? Like what time Philanthropy and Skit parties begin each day? Or what it has been in the past? Thanks!

It will usually start in the 4:30 to 5:30 PM time range. To get an idea of how long each party lasts, go to this link for ->What To Wear

I'm with you, Carnation. You have to already determine that first release list with 2100 PNMs. You just can't function if you don't already have some names in one column or the other.

Thanks, Mary Poppins for the time estimate - we were just wondering start times due to class schedules. It will be fine, I know. Y'all try Oxford Grillhouse on the Square if you have time - and, their cheesesticks (I know, I know, that sounds like a Chilis appetizer) are amazing.

If you aren't sitting in the room you don't know what is going on. Period. And she didn't say it was just grades, she also said "QR cuts." Grades may be black and white, reputation not so much if you've never met the person. I stand by my statement that she needs to STFU.

She's fine. It's a big school thing.
