4% Gubernatorial wannabe Toby Doeden apparently had a plan to meet a lot of people at the SDSU opener game today in Brookings, sending out a text blast a couple of days ago:
Jackrabbits Fans. America First Patriots. All in one place.
Patrick, you’re invited to Toby Doeden’s South Dakota Gameday Tailgate tomorrow outside Dykhouse Stadium.
There will be music, games, free food, and free drinks. The tailgate starts at 1:00 PM and runs until game time.
Hang out with Toby, meet up with fellow conservatives, or just grab a snack or a drink. Feel free to stop in for a minute or stay for a while!
Couple of problems with this whole thing..
# 1 – they are opting to tailgate in Brookings on what might be the busiest day of the state fair in Huron? Really?
# 2 – their whole advertising scheme for this campaign event is using the fairly well guarded NCAA jackrabbit logo, which as I understand is a no-no. As is lifting from SDSU’s football promo videos for campaign advertising, which it appears they may have also done.
# 3 – I happen to be driving on the north side as they were pulling up to set up tailgating. Where they found themselves stuck out on the very very far corner, away from where people congregate.
Add those things together, and you can see the turnout they’re having this afternoon;
Yeah.. that looks like a dumpster fire campaign event from team Doeden.
Here’s a 3pm update…
Not looking any better.
Maybe Hansen/lemming should combine with dumpster Doeden, they might get 25 people there.
This is gross.
The worst of politics.
I wish the Doeden team all the best, and I stand ready to work with whomever wins.
My greatest desire is that whomever gets the most votes from legitimate SD residents .. wins.
It looks like they’re setting up? Tailgaiting when I went to SDSU was not really ‘started’ until 3 when everyone finally left The 9 lol.
First picture at one when it started, second picture at three when they were well into it. Not a lot of difference between the two.
While tailgating with Toby don’t forget their favorite chant. White power!
Can you imagine what the fans nearby have to endure from the putrid smoke of a dumpster fire? What those burgers, brats and hot dogs must smell and worst of all taste like cooked over a dumpster fire? I’m not sure any amount of beer or spirits could wash that away. No thanks Toby and leave ASAP!
A putrid odor from the smoke of a Doeden dumpster fire is a strong, foul smell that comes from rotting or decaying organic matter, such as decaying flesh or sewage. It’s often described as a rotten, stinking, or offensive smell, and can also refer to anything that is thoroughly objectionable or morally corrupt. Examples of things that can produce a putrid odor include a dead animal, decomposing waste, or even the foul smell associated with cremation grounds.
This reflects poorly on his oppoonents.
Dead animals are usually involved when grilling, you know. Sure, you can fire up the grill to roast foil-wrapped corn and potatoes, but it’s the dead animal that makes the meal.
The odors arising from manure-spreading, feedlots and meat processing operations are what meat production smells like.
If you are a recent arrival to this state and had no idea where meat comes from, you had better get used to it.
Nice try but fail.
Looks like Drew and Logan preparing to corn hole each other all day.
You win the internet today, congratulations!!
People go to football games to get away from politics and regular life.
Paying the license fees is a good way to advertise. Very creative!
Because usually there’s an easy way to do that.
Mr. Dale you are a Doedenite. Why are you not riding the bus and working on the campaign? Playing guitar and singing for the dozen or so folks that show up to help warm up the crowd? Being a campaign gopher like Logan?
Mr. Dale is a witch, and also a Doedenite. This does not make him a bad guitar strummer. If the 5 Gs reach out to that corner of the parking lot, I hope the young fellows with the cornholes were able to listen to some of those sports talk shows.
