It’s that special time of year again. Long Saturdays spent with thousands of your closest friends and enemies, witnessing history in the making and making memories that will last a lifetime. That’s right, it’s football season in the SEC. So, to make your Saturday in Athens a little more enjoyable, here is a list of tailgating essentials.
A day of tailgating would not be complete without a game of cornhole. Bring a game of cornhole to your tailgating spot and start up a game with anyone around you! Never miss an opportunity to make new friends and get in the competitive spirit before the game!
Tailgating can be exhausting, so make sure you come prepared with food on food on food. From BBQ to chips and dip, there are so many different recipes and ideas that will leave you fat and happy. Football and food is the perfect combination, so impress your friends with a stacked table.
The day wouldn’t be complete without music. Bring a Jambox or anything that will play your favorite songs loud and proud. Want to have a dance party? Tailgating is the perfect place to get hundreds of your closest friends to join in on a pump up song.
If you’re feeling ambitious, bring along a tent or lawn chair. Having a shaded spot and somewhere to sit is never a bad thing; so if you’re committed to carrying around a tent all day, go for it! I guarantee you will have people begging to join you under the shade.
Last but not certainly not least; a day of tailgating and football would not be complete without the perfect outfit. Get decked out in red and black, and wear your colors loud and proud. Flaunt what you got and don’t be ashamed to bleed red and black.
Football is a way of life in the fall, so do it right and tailgate like a pro.
