Three Crucial Components for Successful Tailgating
Set-up: A good arrangement of tailgating essentials is important to your
guests' comfort. Keep in mind weather conditions for optimum pre-game fun. The
first football weekends are bound to be hot; keep your favorite fans and Aunt
Gail's potato salad cool with the Marketplace Quik Shade Canopy (#34783,
$158.00). As cooler temperatures arrive and the season nears bowl games and
championships, warm up with the Stanley Pro-Ceramic Utility Heater with Pivot
Power (#5445, $49.96). Be sure to bring along a generator to plug in the
heater, a blender or even a TV to catch all of the day's games.
Food & Beverage: The only thing better than a win, is a great burger
before the first whistle. Show off your grilling expertise with the Perfect
Flame Pedestal Gas Grill (#126717, $239.00) and impress fans across campus.
Nothing goes better with burgers and a big game than a cold beverage. Don't
forget to throw a cooler in the trunk, or prepare lemonade, sweet tea or punch
in the Rubbermaid 5-Gallon Cooler (#212747, $22.87) to keep your tailgating
team hydrated.
Team Spirit: Tailgating is all about atmosphere and cheering on gridiron
heroes. Show your true team colors. Write your alma mater's fight song on your
car windows with Liquid Chalk (#240085, $2.98). If you can't make it to the
stadium but still want to cheer on the team, protect your grill with Seasonal
Designs Grill Cover featuring your college or pro logo (#58471, $41.69).
