Tailgating at UGA ... need intel.

LSU has the same rules.

I laughed.

You were right to laugh.
I don't have specific information, but I do "know" they are more restrictive. A couple of years ago the university president went ballistic over trash on the campus and threatened all sorts of nonsensical changes. Not sure how much went through from a practical standpoint.

I also think it depends on which parts of campus also.

Dawgs, chime in.

Athens!!!!! I'm serious. You will go to jail.

As much as everyone loves Athens, that place is corrupt as hell. They fund the entire county off of the students-MIPs etc.

I second this. I've never seen people so scared of jaywalking in my life like I did there. I was told that the police don't hesitate in giving tickets for it.

Some drunk undergrad pushed me into the street, it was a crowded sidewalk, right in front of a cop in an effort to get me in trouble. The cop saw the whole thing. Gave the kid an MIP and wrote him the ticket for jaywalking. He asked if I wanted to press assault charges. It's like their 1 rule

Athens is far and away my favorite road trip, sucks we don't see them on our schedule much

Athenslife, I have no idea. I live in Lawrenceville, but I haven't been UGA'S campus . Anything you recommend is appreciated. I do know that the SU sections are 144, 101,102 and 103 possibly.

I'm an SU alum, so as soon as this game was scheduled last year people started hounding me to facilitate a tailgate.

I gave in.

Now I have to figure out the what, where and how.

You guys have already given me valuable information that I need to pass on to the SU Alumni.

Terrapin Brewery on the edge of town. If you like craft beer be sure to hit that up.

Ok. A lot of it depends on your age and what you want out of your tailgate. Unfortunately, it's likely to be a noon game and that is a little bit more Of a damper on proper tailgating.

First off, you can park for free in some places on east campus. First come first serve. There are buses to th stadium from there. Some people do just tailgate out of their car or near the deck for that reason but there won't be a ton of people.

The busiest place will be Meyers quad. For the southern game, it probably won't be too full but that's where you'll get your college kids. For the southern game, you'll aso find service tailgates there.

The old hotspot on north campus is where they are really strict. But it's also the most scenic. So if your coming with prepared for, that might be the place but anything but tents and chairs and tables is pretty much banned. A guy at the one I was at last year had issues with campus pd.

My favorite places are kinda out of the way fields. Inbetween pharmacy and forestry is nice and behind geology is pretty, but there will be maybe one or two tailgates there. Not very crowded. Overal, everything is very spread out.

I wish you were coming up for a bigger game for a more festive experience (too many people who come to the game from Atlanta) but you'll have fun regardless. They will be strict about the time you can set up and only charcoal cooker and they will be very strict on north campus.

Any other questions, let me know.
