Question for the pack.

Some of my wife's family from Louisiana will be coming up for the Black Crowes concert and the MSU/LSU game the following day. They are big LSU fans but they hosted us last year in Baton Rouge and showed us a hell of a good time tailgating for the LSU/MSU match up. In fact, there were as many MSU fans as LSU fans at their tailgate last year and we all had a blast. I want to show them a good time tailgating this year but I've really never done any personal tailgating rather than just walking around and mooching. I feel like with the BC concert and a good tailgate they can leave MSU impressed with our gameday atmosphere.

Any pointers? I'm assuming the Junction is out of the question, right? I hear most folks set up the night before in the junction and it's complete mayhem...plus I plan on being at the Crowes concert. Any good advice on where to set up? I would like to be able to walk to the game and not me 5 miles away from the stadium.

I would think that as long as you got up to campus that Friday afternoon with a couple tents you should be able to find a spot to put them. You may not be in the junction but you surely could get close to that area.

Someone who knows better please correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the school allow tent set up beginning Thursday afternoon?.

You can set up a tent a 4pm on Friday. Generator, satellite dish, TV, grill, and booze. Southern Traditions might do a one game set up?
