Yeah, an most of them don’t go into the game. In fact, with the pat downs and concession prices inside, hell, I just as soon stay in the parking lot and tailgate and watch it on a outdoor T.V. Much more fun.
Most of the fans Tank meets are self-absorbed jerks, but this is a guy I want to tailgate with. I’ll even switch allegiance to whatever team he’s there to support!
why go into the game? The t.v. view is much better than sitting in the nose bleed sections, and the tailgate is cheaper than buying an actual season ticket.
Arrowhead used to be the undisputed king of tailgating (for the pros, at least). Then we had that little downturn in the Chiefs’ fortunes…….but we’re coming back!
The problem with tailgating now is the television blackouts. My daughter and her hubby used to have season tickets to the Bucs games and had a regular group that they tailgated with at the home games. When Tampa Bay started to increase the ticket prices while diminishing their on field performance, the attendance decreased considerably and they began enforcing the Blackout rule in hopes of bringing in spectators. It had the opposite effect. Many fans, like my daughter, gave up their season tickets in protest. The fun in the parking lot diminished because the fans could see the game on their sets due to the blackout. BTW I’m a Saints fan. Sorry Tampa but tomorrow won’t be your day !Laissez le bon temps rouler !

It costs 25 bucks to park at Lincoln Financial (Philadelphia) for cars.50 bucks for land yachts.

Don’t. Just come up here to Lambeau Field. There actually are people who come just for the tailgates (because they can’t get tickets for the game).
