Title: Tailgating....
Post by: Memphisvolunteer on April 25, 2014, 10:58:31 EDT
Have a question for all of you.....

For the past 8 - 9 years, about 10 of us (and more some games) have tailgated in the grassy area beside the Lake Ave Garage - beside old fraternity row.  This has always been perfect because we have all had parking passes at the garage.  When we first started 8 - 9 years ago, we were the one ones there.  Now, it has become an awesome tailgating experience and is packed!  There was even a wedding there last year...thought that was kind of weird!

With that said, apparently UT is turning the garage over to all students for a new dorm that is opening in the fall, so there goes our parking garage for games.  We have been given the following choices: Ag campus (don't like the idea of riding a bus to the game), Lot 23 (beside Hess but in the middle of the campus--not sure about the tailgating atmosphere), Lot behind Clement Hall (same question about tailgating atmosphere), and 11 st garage.  Here is my question...the 11st garage is beside the grassy area of World's Fair park.  Would they allow you to tailgate on the grassy area?  We are also thinking about parking at Wendy's and still tailgating at our normal spot.  Any ideas on good areas to tailgate at or thoughts?
