I lived in Columbia for 5 yrs and there aren’t great options for tailgating for the visiting team. If you don’t have a parking pass, really the only public parking tailgating for larger parties will be at Truman’s Landing. That appears to now be a public RV lot. Not sure if you can reserve a spot or if it’s first come/first served.

The best option to get out quick is to park on the shoulder of Stadium or Providence. Some tailgate in the grass off the shoulder.

The best option in COMO as they call it, is to park near downtown and enjoy different spots in downtown prior to kickoff.

Flat Branch, Harpo’s, The Fieldhouse and Shiloh were some of the notable places I recall. Shiloh was a big alumni bar. Downtown is north of campus and the stadium in south, so you can stroll through campus on the way to the stadium.

thank you for the detailed response. Truman's is an RV lot now and I didn't get my request in early enough.

I'm staying at the Hampton Inn on East Stadium Drive near the stadium. Maps show Stadium Grill next door. Is that a decent place to eat and tailgate before the game?

Please post some good restaurant recommendations. We're arriving on Thursday to check out the campus and to eat/drink.

BengalBen, thank you. CAN YOU CONFIRM that shoulder parking is allowed on Stadium Blvd., west of Providence?

Were leaving right after game for a long drive, well into Kansas, so need to park smart, for an easy westward exit.
