Sports Embarrassing…

Hi yall!! This is so embarrassing but I am a senior and I’ve never been tailgating.
Can someone please help me figure out how and where to tailgate? Where do yall park? What do you bring? Do you have to know someone? Please give me your tips and tricks!!!
I’m a student, just trying to make the best of college life before leaving TTU

It’s difficult if you don’t have a parking spot. But you can setup on any grass, hang out with a cooler, some music, maybe a TV if you can swing it. Not just join the crowds, like Raider Alley or many of the student orgs.

So anyone can just go up to anyone’s little space or are you supposed to know someone?
Do people generally park somewhere adjacent to campus and walk to the area there behind the stadium?

Usually you know the people but there are lots of generous people that welcome strangers. Kevin sent you an invite so just introduce yourself as the Reddit guy and guarantee you’re welcome. Also check out raider alley. As long as you’re not a jerk, people are friendly. As far as parking, I have a parking pass so not sure where any free parking might be but you have a few days to ask around. Good luck. Have fun. Be safe.

Hope you go out to the tailgating areas. Lots of Red Raiders would welcome you. Best of luck. Have fun.
