Pre-Game Tailgate Party
Friday, January 7th 8:00 AM CST until...

Humperdinks in Arlington, TX will be the Official LSU Alumni Pre-game Tailgate Party for the 2011 Cotton Bowl and is open to ALL LSU Fans and Alumni. Due to a number of restrictions on tailgating at Cowboys Stadium, we are using the LSU watch party location for the Tarrant Tigers for our tailgate party. Humperdinks provides a number of advantages for LSU fans:


•Humperdinks' craft brewed beers, a special "Tiger Brew", and national beers
•An extensive menu including a Tiger Brunch menu for those arriving early
•With the unpredictable weather in January, Humperdinks provides an indoor venue as well as heated patios
•Free parking and $10 round-trip shuttles to and from the game
•60+ televisions to watch the Cotton Bowl for fans that do not have tickets
•A place to meet other people who bleed Purple and Gold

Friday's tailgate will begin with a Live Broadcast of "The Press Box Show with Jimmy Ott" for 1210 The Score in Baton Rouge and a special "Tiger Brunch" menu. The live broadcast will air from 9am until 12 noon. Following the live broadcast, LSU's own Kevin "Big Daddy" will be DJ'ing all afternoon until 5:00pm. In addition to a personally selected music list, Kevin will also play zydeco music occasionally and certainly will play LSU fight songs to get us fired up and intimidate any Aggies that dare to enter!

Cost
There is no cost to attend the LSU Alumni tailgate party, other than charges you incur at Humperdinks or through the sale of merchandise that will be available at the tailgate party. Though you are not obligated, we do encourage donations of any amount to the LSU Alumni chapters that will go directly to the Scholarship funds of both chapters. Please see an Alumni Board member wearing an alumni badge to make a donation the day of.

Parking
Free Parking will be available to all those who attend the tailgate party. Additionally, valet parking will be available for $5 (cash only). The parking lot can accommodate 500+ cars and is not within walking distance to the stadium.

Shuttle Service
Round trip shuttle service to Cowboys Stadium will be provided for $10 per person (cash only). The shuttles run on a schedule and will begin services at 3:00pm. Tickets for the shuttle go on sale at 1:00pm at the front door of Humperdinks and the tickets available for each scheduled ride will be on a "first come first serve" basis. Be sure to keep your ticket for shuttle service back to Humperdinks after the game.
