you won't find folks in Baton Rouge or even other SEC tailgates that keep padlocks on their ice chests.


I have no idea if the laws have changed since I lived there but the county is “dry” for beer and light wine (makes no sense). Since beer is not technically allowed in the grove, the police can’t check your ice chests if they have locks on them. Just a loophole that lets fans and cops turn a blind eye. Big reason you will see solo cups in hands instead of beer cans

Oxford is a great college town though, it will be slammed and most places at capacity for LSU weekend

Oldest daughter graduated from OM. Setting up a tailgate in the Grove is a royal pain. There are folks who will set up your tent and bring ur stuff for a uh “nominal fee”. Ole Miss golf course is mature, fair and usually have great greens. I love playing there if you can find the time. My favorite lunch spot is Ajax in the square. They have good soul food. They’re closed on Sunday. There’s a great outdoors store called Hunter's Hollow. Not much fishing gear but great hunting selections. BBB is over rated and impossible to get a table. They believe in breakfast in Oxford and there are other less busy options. Lost Pizza is also some of the best I’ve ever eaten.
