The schools have used the home football games as a fundraiser, charging $10 to $15 for parking a car and at least $100 to park an RV. Thompson estimates that the schools raised several thousand dollars during those weekends.

The LSU Tailgaters at Vandy probably left the same mess they leave here.

Perhaps the prisoner clean-up crew should follow them to road games.

There will be no tailgating, no recreational vehicles and no overnight parking allowed at two Metro schools during Vanderbilt University football games.

Fans of visiting teams usually park at Eakin Elementary School and Harris-Hillman Special Education School, both near Vanderbilt's stadium.

But neighborhood residents recently complained about tailgating, drinking and the number of recreational vehicles, said Ralph Thompson, assistant superintendent of student services for Metro Nashville Public Schools.

I could put up with a few nights of RVers partying if I knew my local school was making a few thousand dollars. Better than having to buy wrapping paper and world's greatest chocolate!

Yeah, that whole wrapping paper thing is a scam.

The chocolate I like, especially the covered almonds.

Most of the housing around Vandy is high income. Vandy should let the tailgaters park in the lot across from the stadium or in Centennial Park.

I didn't realize it was illegal to have alcohol on school premises on non-school days...

Neighbors complained about the number of RVs?


I'm sure they aren't too accustomed to seeing that from their own fans. That place is about as exciting to tailgate at as nothing. Might yet be the deadest SEC school around for tailgating. I'm pretty sure it is.

I thought that Vandy folks were smart...check this tidbit from the comments section:

Why don't you have someone from the schools supervise the tailgatting. Let them know that there is NO DRINKING ALOUD and if anyone is counting drinking call the police...

Vandy is officially more useless than they already were.

They don't contribute a fricking thing to the conference, and now complain about shite. Maybe they should join CUSA.

hopefully our fans are smart enough to pick up their own trash while visiting other campuses.

If they want to make a few more $$ why not sell Beer in the parking lot.
