Easy Tailgating Tips to Enjoy Game Day

Try these easy tailgating tips to enjoy game day!

What does September in a college town mean? Football season is in full swing, whether you’re watching the game at home, tailgating at a designated area on campus, or enjoying time with friends at the stadium. As a blogger, I used to think it was my responsibility to share with you all kinds of intricate, elaborate party ideas, but what I have learned over the years is that most people want really simple ways to entertain guests. Here are some of my best tips for throwing a tailgating party to enjoy game day every single weekend!

 

Easy tailgating tips include simple decorations, great food, and enjoying the outdoors with close friends and family!

You don’t have to invite everyone. Sometimes it is awesome to invite all of your friends over to watch the game, but other times it is better just to invite a small group of friends so you could really enjoy their company. Betting on sites like 스포츠토토 might also help in spicing up the sports-watching experience.

While decorating for a party is important to the overall spirit of celebrating, good food is definitely the priority. I like to serve food people remember – fresh, delicious dishes with enough variety to please the entire crowd. Keep the decorations on theme with banners, cups, plates, and platters. 

Easy Tailgating Tips subs

We headed to Jersey Mike’s for delicious game day food! I decided to purchase four giant cold subs because each sub can be cut into four separate pieces. This way, guests can enjoy a few different varieties. We selected one turkey and cheese, one roast beef and cheese, one Jersey Shore’s Favorite {provolone, ham, and cappacuola}, and one Original Italian (provolone, ham, cappacuola, salami, pepperoni, and proscuittini}. All of the cold cuts are freshly sliced for each sandwich, and you can choose all your favorite toppings. You even get your choice of bread: gluten-free, white, wheat, or rosemary. Want a special treat? Get it Mike’s Way with onions, lettuce, tomatoes, spices, red wine vinegar, and olive oil. 

Tailgating Tip: Because I picked up the order earlier in the day for an afternoon game, I asked for the oil, vinegar, and mayonnaise on the side.

Enjoy the outdoors! Whenever possible, take your party outside. Where we live in Gainesville, Florida, by the end of October, it’s absolutely gorgeous outside. Weather in the 60s, a light breeze – it’s wonderful! It’s also when football season is in full swing, so it’s the perfect time for tailgating.
