Football Tailgating Questions

[BigDawg0074]

I just re-upped my football season tickets and my wife and I are thinking about setting up some tailgates this year. We’ve never done this ourselves and we’d like some advice on setting up something nice that’s close to the stadium. Any help would be appreciated!

Make sure your set up includes an upside-down pineapple. It is a way to tell those around that you are a true fan and it will get you invited to other tailgates and parties. ***

Do you want to rent a tent or are you going completely freelance ?

Where is your parking?

Beside and behind Barnes and Noble is easy to free lance and near the stadium obviously.

You can freelance and find a space at The Junction, easy, it's never full. But it requires a bit more work.

Tips. Stone and Bully Blvd is open to drive until 3 hours before kickoff. You can drive up to Barnes and Noble and drop off your gear and supplies and go park.

However after the game, you have to wait 2 hours after the end of the game for the roads to open up.

Pro Tip-
Always have at least one guy (preferably big and intimidating) stay behind during the game to be your official Loss Prevention Officer.

Ideally I’d like to get a parking pass and setup close to my vehicle but I’m not seeing any options at this time. For now I’d like to go the freelance(cheaper) option. I figure a table, chairs, and a cooler or two would suffice to start off with. Once I figure out the logistics I could always expand the amenities if it’s feasible.

I just bought a label maker and put “GloryDawg” on everything, and my stuff has never been touched

Tried that once.
Had to call the cops to keep a swarm of repo men from taking everything

This one I trust? Hard to say how much stuff I had in my house with these on them over the years, I got to 1002**

If you can't get Bulldog club parking....

The Friday before games at 8am. The University puts public parking on sale online. I usually get Bully grass(BG). Across from the sorority houses.

Saturday I get to campus early and drop my stuff off before roads close. Then I will tote it all back to BG post game. Or just wait out the roads opening. Just depends.
