The Only Tailgate Checklist You Need

Many football fans take tailgating as seriously as they take games.

This is especially true in the South, where the climate is perfect for outdoor pre-game parties. In fact, several SEC schools are known for hosting A+ tailgates all season long. (The residents at Cayce Cove, near the University of South Carolina, and The Pavilion on 62nd, near the University of Florida, know what we mean.)
