My 2010 Buffalo Pregame Mixtape: The C-15

Say what you want about the South, but they know their rap, and they know their football.  Therefore every pregame mixtape should have a heavy dose of dirty south.  The third song is an important anthem, Archie Eversole's "We Ready"

 

See in the south people are slower, simpler, and this song spares no words explifying this:

subject: We
state of mind: Ready

Thats all we need to know.  Proving that sometimes the most profound statements are concise.

Song 3: 'We Ready" by Archie Eversole

 

Qualifications: Only know the words to the Chorus, Dirty South, use of y'all.

"We Ready, We Ready, We Ready, For Y'alll...."

My 2010 Buffalo Pregame Mixtape: The C-15

Hours before kickoff, the warmups begin, and the music turns on.  The average tailgater is too busy drinking to ever get to the game early, however the music is there.  In today's PC world, the music tends to skew family friendly which really doesn't sit well with me.  I can't get hype on "Dance" by Lee Ann Womack, or Even "Pro's in Area Codes" by Ludacris... Womack is for a Southern Belle's sweet 16 not a football game.  And I have HOES, in Area Codes, censorship is for pussies.

However there are times, when family friendliness, pop culture and awesomeness intersect and create a timeless pregame song, this is one of those moments:

Song 2: In the Air Tonight by Phil Collins

Qualifications: Sing-A-Long Style, In The Hangover, Rated PG, The 80's, Xtreme Drum Solo.

I've been waiting for this moment for all my life

My 2010 Buffalo Pregame Mixtape: The C-15

The Pregame Mixtape is a  necessary function of gameday. You need equal parts spirit, joy, spunk, and chants to get you ready for the game.  You cannot reuse mixtapes, as each mixtape should remind you of a season.  Some songs are universal however and can be reused.

Examples:

2006 - Will always be Jet's "Are You Going to Be My Girl" - Everyone new the words, hard rock chords, and perfect ending to a tailgate inside a car in a church parking lot at Boston College.

2009 - Jay Sean "Down" - Just poppy enough and played 4 million times during the trip from NYC to Buffalo via Philadelphia.

so my 15 tracks have been carefully crafted for awesomeness.

Song 1: Lose My Mind by Young Jeezy

Qualifications: Southern, Recent, Weekend and Drinking Reference.

 "Couldn't get it all week time to unwind, drink like a tank, lose my mind."
