Northwestern Tailgating & Halloween Party DJ
Saturday was a full day. Up early to tailgate in Evanston before Northwestern hosted Iowa. Can’t say I’ve ever tailgated in Evanston, but it’s a pretty respectable scene for a school rarely touted for its partying. Blats got up super early with his kids and set up base complete with a grill and TV…
