TailgateClothing.com has an interesting yet spotty collection of vintage looking distressed t-shirts with college logos on them. The included schools at this point are Arkansas, Arizona, Iowa, Iowa State, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio State, USC, UCLA, Virginia, and Yale.

I was able to view an advanced screening of TLC’s new show “Tailgate Takedown”. It’s your basic cooking challenge but set at actual college football games. Three teams of fans are chosen and allowed to make the tailgating food of their choice. The premiere featured three USC cooking teams competing before the USC/UCLA game. In this episode only USC fans were selected and the menu takes on a latin flair. The show is hosted by Joe Cahn who you may have seen online before since he’s proclaimed himself the “Commissioner of Tailgating”. While the teams are preparing their meals, Joe walks around and interviews other fans to feature the campus atmosphere. This is a great idea and I’m always willing to check out other campuses and traditions. Unfortunately, Joe might be the corniest guy in America. I’d have trouble not throwing a fork in his eye if he ever tailgated with me all day.
I’ve only watched a handful of cooking challenge/reality shows, but I think Tailgate Takedown holds up inspite of Joe. It personally gives me a little something to relate to and I’d imagine as the series moves on you’ll get some interesting ideas for expanding your tailgating menu. The show premieres tonight (1/6/2010) on TLC at 10pm Eastern with the USC/UCLA episode. Then at 10:30 for the SEC Championship episode from the Georgia Dome featuring two Alabama cooking teams and one Florida team. The shows repeat at 1am.

I’m posting this video for two reasons. And neither one of them are because this guy handles a beer bong like a champ. I’m going to ignore the fact that he deliberates and stalls for so long before starting his ever so slow finishing of bong. I’d like to focus on two different subtleties in the video.
1) Look on the left side of the video and spot the two little kids watching all of this go down. Where are their parents? I guess you got to learn how to chug a beer at some point in life. Might as well start early.
2) Apparently USC fans did not get the memo about men over the age of 12 wearing jerseys to the game. It appears that guys not wearing a jersey are in the minority.
