Tailgate Judgment: Tell us what you ate and/or drank during game day

Unless someone judges your food and drink, there is no reason to ever eat or drink anything. Tell us about your game-day spread, and Jon will rate it 1-10.

Jonathan Daniel

Why did you ever bother eating meals before I was around to judge them? The answer is beyond me, but what’s important is that I’m here for you now. If you were one of over 10,000 Americans to have eaten and imbibed things while watching football this past weekend, I would love to hear from you.

Here’s how it works, if you’re new here: leave a comment below describing what you ate and/or drank during game day (which may have been either Saturday or Sunday). I will then, time permitting, assign a 1-through-10 rating to your lunch, and do my best to explain my rationale.

I’ll start. I didn’t go out until later Sunday, and while watching football, I did not drink anything. I cooked and ate bacon and scrambled eggs. It was an unspectacular meal, but fully satisfying, especially since the eggs were my doing. Properly scrambled eggs are vastly superior to the rubbery packing-peanut sort we grew up with in cafeterias. I will hereby award myself a 6.5.

Your turn.

Friend, what did you eat and/or drink while watching football?
