First Tailgate Setup
Posted on 10/15/15 at 4:35 pm
Posted on 10/15/15 at 4:35 pm
Saturday will be my first time setting up a tailgate on campus. I have always just gone to other peoples tailgates and never had to worry about any of the details. We won't be doing anything too elaborate for this first one probably just a tent, a grill and a tv. We will most likely setup near the Swine Palace and I am leaning towards dropping my tent off on Friday evening. Does anyone have any pointers on setup or tailgating in general?

If you put your tent up in "my" spot, I will destroy it and throw it in the lake.

No one is going to be a dick about it. Just be courteous and ask around if it is someone's spot.

We tailgate in that area. Most of the regulars will have their tents up as early as campus allows.

Don't rope it off like a fricking crime scene.

Set up your tent Friday night, but don't put the cover on it until Saturday morning or you can kiss it goodbye.

Don't take other people's spots

Most people do recon first ... if you haven't already scoped out a spot during a previous home game then you are likely to set up,in someone spot that's been going for years. Gonna be some hard feelings if you do that. Don't be "that" guy

Have never Tailgated, now in Dallas.
As a first timer, how is one to know ?
It is likely that ALL places have been used, so what is the best way?

Deep cycle battery, inverter, fan. Money well spent. Put a frozen jug of water in front of the fan if you want "AC".
