Reserve Your Tailgating Spot Online

There are private parking lots in the vicinity of most college stadiums. Depending on the campus, they may be your best or only bet. And on some occasions you can build up a relationship with the owners and start having your space reserved each week. But Gator Parking takes the whole business ahead one giant leap by allowing you to book your spot for the season online. It may cost about $400-800 for the season, but the perks seem worth it.

- Three different lots that are near to both the stadium and bars and restaurants.

- You can show up at 8am or 20 minutes before the game and still have your spot. Lots are open until two hours after the game.

- Friends and family will always know where to find you

- The lot is monitored during the game.

- Unpaved, shaded lot, takes the edge off 90° September games.

- Most importantly, they have bathrooms.

This probably isn’t idyllic for rowdy 30 and under fans who like to party all weekend, and probably don’t drive after the game. But for the 50 year old set who just rolls in to town for the day, this seems like an easy solution. I can only hope this catches on in other college towns.

Cooler and Beer Pong Table Combo?

nixforsix — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 14:21:50 +0000

It seems ridiculous that there is actually a site called BeerPongNews.com and slightly more crazy that they actually searched the US Patent Office’s website for mentions of beer pong. But because they did, we were able to see the sketches of a combination tailgating cooler and beer pong table. They definitely seem on the right track to me. It’s a very useful idea, but I’d guess the legs will be the real sticking point. They need to be about two feet long and support roughly 40 pounds. Which I’m guessing would force them to be stored on the side of the cooler instead of below. Hopefully some day they will figure it all out.

If you have to tailgate on crutches, you might as well do it in style. (via thereIfixedit)

Quick Draw: The Beer Holster

nixforsix — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 13:23:42 +0000

So I stumbled across this Halloween costume from a Wake Forest tailgate. Normally dressing as a cowboy would be a bit of a cop out, but I must say I was impressed with the Leather Beer Holster. Turns out you can buy them from beeroutlaw.com. Their cheapest one costs $29 and you can get one personalized with a college logo for $40. Not a bad way to mosey around campus. If you were to get a pair of holsters and top it off with a belt buckle bottle opener you could become some type of drunken Billy the Kid.
