re: South Carolina Tailgating

That was my map... was just scrolling through to make sure someone had posted it on this thread as well. It should be a GREAT resource for anyone coming from out of town!

Thanks for the props! Look forward to seeing all you Tigers fans in town!

Well, we're certainly looking forward to it. We'll bring our A game, as I'm sure you guys will, too.

Not every Gamecocks fan thinks we're going to blow you guys out - in fact, I'd be willing to bet that there are quite a few LSU fans that thought you would blow Florida out.

This game will be competitive, and I think will be a lot closer than you think.

Whoever wins, here's hoping for an injury-free game for both teams.

GEAUX GAMECOCKS!!!
Yeah, Kuhn is a stand-up kinda person.

Everybody's fan base is going to have SOME haters, flamers and downright rude people... Some of us Gamecocks fans like to show that we know what Southern hospitality is.

We look forward to having you guys in our city, and to a good game!

Geaux Gamecocks!!!
Ummmm... I guess you can... but you'll be the only ones tailgating there.

They might also prohibit tailgating there so as to squeeze as many people into the parking area(s) as possible.

I know that the fairgrounds have been deemed public (paid) parking, though they will not allow tailgating so they can make as much money as possible by utilizing all the space for parking.

Also, I am told by a buddy that if you are in the fairgrounds, be aware of your behavior and/or posession of alocohol. Apparently when the fair is in town, they're a lot less tolerant of alcohol when inside the fairgrounds. If you're in a regular pay parking lot, though, feel free to chug your bourbon directly from the bottle.

See you guys at the Brice!
Wattup breaux! Didn't even know you posted here...

:cool:
No, the 'Big Pay Lot' is just a fenced in, grassy area. Blowfish Stadium is a couple blocks further away from the stadium.

Th only bad part about parking at the Blowfish Stadium and taking a shuttle is, where you gonna tailgate???
Try Liberty Tap Room in the Vista... they've got a great atmosphere and about 50 different kinds of martinis... have fun!
Here's a map I've created (and posted on my home site, CockyTalk) that should help you guys get through the city to Williams Brice, find parking AND something to do. Hope this helps!

We look forward to having you all as our guests at Williams Brice this Saturday, and here's to an injury-free game for BOTH teams! Good luck (but not TOO much)!!!
