Tailgating season is here and we are so ready. Whether you're a morning person or not, get ready to head to Rentschler field for our next home game. There are only a few things better than burgers and dogs, cornhole, and your fellow UConn huskies early on a Saturday morning. So blast some music, grill up some food, and enjoy!
1. How are we getting there?
Is there a Tilt Bus? Who’s driving? How much would an Uber be?
2. Have to run to the CO-OP (Sorry, I mean UConn Bookstore) to get a whole new wardrobe for the game.
We have way too much fun filling our entire wardrobe with UConn t-shirts and jerseys. Yes, I’m still mad the $9.99 t-shirts are now $14.95… but we’ll survive.
3. Why is this bus ride taking so long?
Taking a bus from Storrs to East Hartford is definitely a trip. Now’s the time to get the extra 40 minutes of sleep in, or get the party started early.
4. It's nine o'clock in the morning. Do I have a cheeseburger or hot dog?
I have the answer. Have both.
5. Waking up feeling like you only had four hours of sleep and need Advil and water immediately.
A tailgate is the answer to your hangover. Boot and rally!
6. Where's my flannel? Can I borrow your flannel?
It’s going to be 50 degrees when you get there, but probably 80 at noon. Plan accordingly.
7. Where are you?
That friend that always disappears and you have absolutely no idea where he/she is. They tell you they’re by a certain flag, but actually is nowhere to be found.
8. When does the first bus go back?
Are you staying in the parking lot until the bus leaves at halftime, or are you actually going into the game?
