Mississippi State Game Day Essentials

What you need to survive football season in the south.

Sep 11, 2019

Football in the south is a big deal, tailgating is a bigger deal, and what happens after is an even bigger deal! It is hard to embrace the heat during these early games at 11 am kickoffs and it will be just as hard to stay all game during those cold, shivering games. But, as fans, we will go and we will always support. We will also attend the party after! Here are 8 things that you need this football season- hang in there ladies!!!

A Clear Purse

Since the new rule about bags has been added, I have seen clear purses being sold all around Mississippi and other stores in the south. This Kelly Wynne clear purse is one of my personal favorites because they have different color options to match your team.

Sunglasses

This may be a given for some of you, but I forgot my sunglasses last weekend and my eyes were in serious trouble! Watch out for these sun rays and do not forget your sunnies.

Blotting Sheets

So, imagine you are outside all day in the hear, tailgating and watching the game. The makeup that you worked so hard to get perfect is coming off and sweat is just dripping. What's a solution? Blotting sheets! They can be found at any grocery or drug store for really cheap.

Life Hack: Dress Up Cute T-Shirts

Last football season, I started running out of cute clothes to wear to the games. I was tired of feeling uncomfortable and started to give up on my outfits. But then, I had a genius idea! I thought "Why can I not be cute and comfy and dress up a t-shirt?" Genius? I know! Honestly, this was one of my favorite outfits last season. I dressed up a MSU t-shirt that I bought from JCG apparel with a skirt and some pumps! You can do this with cute t-shirts or even jerseys.

Game Day Stickers or Buttons

No, you do not have to be in a sorority to have a sticker/button! They pass stickers out at the games and there are plenty at stores that you can buy. Stickers and buttons make you look so festive and team-spirited!

Football games last a pretty good bit, so be prepared!

Stay hydrated! I saw way too many people pass out at the last football game.

Friends

To make college football games memorable as a student, adult, teenager, go with friends or make friends! Football, win or loose, is about all coming together and rooting for our team.

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

Or at least try to do.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

You need sleep, but also have 13 things due in the span of 4 days.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

12. But, you fight through the tears to get everything done because you're determined.

13. In the end, you feel on top of the world because you made it through the last week of class alive.

14. But, now it's finals week so good luck.
