TAILGATING TIPS

Ice, Ice, Ice
Bring an extra full chest of ice . There's nothing worse than a warm drink in the hot sun.

Green Space
If possible, park near a grassy area. Blacktop will heat up quickly on a hot, summer day.

Arrive Early, Leave Early
Give yourself plenty of time to cook, eat and clean up before the game, so you can avoid traffic jams after the game.

Prepare Your Meal
Prepare as much of the food as you can before arriving at the stadium. This will help you keep on schedule for the game.

Plan for the Weather
Don't let the weather get you down. Bring extra ponchos or garbage bags and man your grill through the worst of it.

Stay Safe
Accidents do happen. Remember to bring a stocked first aid kit to the game.

Portable Power
Save your car's battery for the ride home. Use your portable generator to power radios, lights, or small appliances.
