Oh boy do I know THAT drill! We used to play a double. Usually a club date on NY eve and then we would play the tailgate party for the Outback Bowl in TPA.( 6:00 am load in) on NY day! We made a ton of money but we were zombies that day. We would be done at 10 am when the game started so I would just go home and sleep all day. Some time we would just go from the club to the stadium and sleep in the trucks. I think I'm too old to do that anymore. It takes days to recover from that.
