Southern Tailgating

del

It?s an total travesty what the university has allowed southern tradition to do to the tailgating scene on campus. It looks like complete crap with their black trash bag tents. they?ve gone corporate. Screw them.

Weather nerd movie reference:

Went out and got himself some corporate sponsors. They're in it for the money not the tailgate.

Can you just either answer his question or stay out of the conversation? Do you know how many years of school and money it took for him to be a MD? You could have done the same thing, but I guess you didn't. Same as him, I want my tent set up so I can enjoy tailgating without feeling like it is a chore. Yes, I can afford it as well, but I still do not want to feel like it is unfair.

Hell for most of the games last year, you can set up a tent most anywhere in the junction. Sparse crowd. Even the egg bowl.

It seems high until you have 5-6 families throwing in on it and then it is pretty affordable and convenient especially for those coming from out of town. Cuts down on how long you have to be there to take everything back down and tote to the car etc.

And this is most of the clientele that they are marketing towards. IMO they've always been easy to work with on gamedays and will generally try to help you out in any way they can.

I'm from Columbus. I don't know 3-4 families that actually go to games. Ha. I know 9-10 Alabama families.
