BEEEEEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MORE BEEEEEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, TICKETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Unfortunately seen too many dumb-**** have to make the Baton Rouge - Vermilion Parish 80-90mph "run" and back to BR, to grab the tickets on the kitchen table......have also seen a couple "not-too-happy" wives, drive up and literally throw the tickets to their extremely grateful husbands.....doubt the hubby was too "lucky" later that night!)

Besides beer..at least up here, I'm guessing it's the same in the south too..but you need a grill. And for that grill you obviously need some food...gotta eat before the game.

music! preferably your fight songs/ chants etc.

Beer is a good start. I went to the UT Bama 05 game in Tuscaloosa and ran out of beer. The closest place was of course full of Bama fans that enjoyed shouting Roll Tide in my face every chance they could. Anyway I ended up with cool beer and by the time we got back to our spot it was warm beer and no ice. Ice would be an import "accoutrement". CenLa Tiger your use of big words is impressive. Chairs so us lazy tailgaters like myself can sit down and enjoy the camaraderie and the amazing eye candy that populates all SEC Campuses on game day!

the good ol' bean bag toss. I've seen a new game with four poles on top of eachother and people string together golf balls or rubber balls and wrapping the balls around different poles are worth so many points. It's not perverted as it sounds.

Having a friend that'll scream obscenities at visiting fans is always fun.

I don't tailgate.When I get older I sure will though.Just with no alcohol.Sorry beer drinkers.

I can't drink either..but I'm really close..less than year away.

We always bring a satelite receiver and TV so we can watch the other NCAAF games while we're cooking.

Brats! Sauerkraut!

Definitely need my beer. Beer and some Italian or Hot Sausage.

That's the ticket.

Have you guys lost all your **** marbles?!!! Yes, beer is a must. BUT WHAT ABOUT WOMEN?

Football, food and beer is excellent, but you can't make me believe you guys tailgate without a bunch of young, vulnerable, talented coeds in the vicinity.

Eleven comments before mine, and you blockheads didn't even say a word that started with a 'w' and ended with an 'n'. What's up with that?

If you're in the deep south or Southern California, where the weather is nice up through November, signs that say "FREE BEER" is a must, that way you attract the females. Then, you have bkikin contests as well as wet-t-shirt contests, and the winner gets her own set of free ****'n'balls.

"Beer and some Italian or Hot Sausage"? Yeah. I'll give you some Hot Sausage. That would be our logo.

I got vision and the rest of the world wears bifocals.

Tailgating- It???s not the same without the shirtless drunk guy (if sober would never reveal his fat body) having his teams colors painted on his upper torso. His speech slurred ever so slightly staggering by asking for a turkey leg (no proper tailgater would have such a thing) or another drink. Being the kind southerner you offer him something to eat (Sandwich or the like so he can eat and carry his ****) followed by your teams call sign like GO Big Orange or something gay like gator bait or even gayer like Roll Tide!

Sideburnedhero- In the SEC women at your spot is a given. That's why you haven't heard aboput it yet....

Cocktail dresses minus the suit and tie (lamest tradtion on the planet for guy sports fans).

Cornhole is what they call bean bag toss in Yankeeville. I swear I saw it everywhere in the Chicagoland area.

Coors Light, MGD, mixers for the girls, but hold the Milwaukee's Best, please.

Any kind of meat you can throw on top of a grill. Tofu burger flippers can be sent back to Clemson.

If you must bring a dawg, make sure his girl has his leash tigtly fastened so it doesn't get hit by a truck.

LSU elvis!

Nice cleavage.

You need tickets and beer!

tickets/ beer/ steaks/ ribs/ and a good grill.

There are only a few good things to come out of Burmingham, AL and one of them definately needs to be at any Southern tailgating get together.....Red Diamond Sweet Iced Tea! In addition to this "imported" beverage, we must have Boudin, Cracklins, and Gumbo in November.
