I’m blogging with my laptop resting on the back seat of a golf cart outside Raymond James Stadium, which is a first. I needed a moment to collect my blogging thoughts, with the NFL tailgate party area looming ahead.

Just got back from the NFL’s tailgate party, where Journey is entertaining hundreds of well-connected fans and celebrities, including the likes of Alonzo Mourning, Andy Roddick, Brooklyn Decker (Roddick’s swimsuit-model girlfriend) and some much appreciative family and friends here for all the festivities.
