Nope, no trailers in that lot. Don't worry you'll be able to watch the game on your HD TV's from your spot near the levee and Brightside.

Are you bringing that rig to Oxford? And, if so, can I hang out with you? I'll provide the Maker's Mark.

Nice job.

It's a nice rig. I'm just wondering... are you going to sit inside the trailer while watching or set up chairs outside? I'd think it'd be better to relocate the two TVs closer to the windows for better viewing. Then you can walk inside the trailer to retrieve beers and whatnot from the coolers without passing in front the TVs.

I love the idea to drive up and open things up, set up with little to unload or reload. It gets me thinking about our setup....

Is there designated places you can park that or can you park it anywhere?

What was the trailer used for, or designed for, originally?

Looks awesome.

If you buy one of those custom tailgating trailers they run like $10,000.

Not sure where people are getting information about LSU not allowing trailers. I called the ticket office today and they said that they are allowed but not close to any travel lanes.

LSU Tigerhead we are not sitting in the trailer. we have 2 canopy tents that will sit outside the trailer with 10 chairs or so. we dont want any drunk arse coming in the trailer and bumping the tvs so that is why we faced them that way. if we faced them the other way, they would have been sticking out and some drunk arse would have bumped in it cause it would have been sticking out. this way there is no reason to go in trailer except to use the microwave which we might put outside on a table.

This. Desi I read your reply, but it would awesome of you could work this out, that way the interior space isn't essentially easted. Heck, you could pretty easily put a small bathroom in there with one of those portable toilets they sell at RV/Marine stores.

You built the entire thing from scratch, or did you modify a trailer?

It's very nice.

i do understand what you are trying to say but honestly i dont want a toilet in there for someone drunk to just piss anywhere. yes i hang around civilized people but there is always someone in a bunch that cant act civilized. we put too much time and money into creating this and i dont want it messed up. everyone has their own views though.
