On Tuesday, Tiger Talk looked a little different than usual.
Instead of Bud’s Classic BBQ on Ninth Street in downtown Columbia, Mike Kelly was stationed in the Walsworth Family Columns Club at Faurot Field as the nightcap for “Taste of the Tigers”. Hosted by The Food Bank for Central & Northeast Missouri, the annual fundraising event gives attendees an opportunity to sample different mid-Missouri eats as well as local brews and wines. There’s also a silent auction, where attendees can enter to win items like memorabilia, vacations and other expensive endeavors. (Editor’s Note: I’m guessing young Quentin didn’t bid on any of said items, as a serious journalist)
To end the evening, Kelly sat down and talked with Eli Drinkwitz, Special Teams Coordinator and Tight Ends Coach Erik Link, as well as defensive tackle Josh Landry.
