Planning your tailgate party can be an overwhelming challenge as you make sure that you have the necessities to ensure a successful tailgating party.You’re going to want to make sure you have enough food to feed yourself and your tailgate neighbors that decide to drop by when they find out you’re headed to the stadium on Game Day. Planning ahead for extra people can indeed be a challenge, so make sure you have plenty of refreshments on hand to host a few of your fellow tailgaters.
Here are a few must haves for your next tailgating party!
Food: It’s pretty essential that every tailgating feast requires a game plan. Your main go to is a portable grill or smoker to use! The grill is the centerpiece of the serious tailgate, and though there is a wide array of fine products offered for the cooking of meats, make sure your grill is portable so you can take it with you. You also need a lighter, plastic storage containers for leftovers, a rubber serving utensils, a lighter, wet wipes and plastic plates and cups! Try and cook as much as you can before hand as well as some ready-to-eat-snacks to keep those that come early happy before the main meal. Some of my favorites are chips and dips, trail mix and a veggie tray!
Game Day Jerseys: Attending your event is one thing but make sure that you wear your favorite team’s apparel. Depending on when the game starts, you might be getting up early to tailgate with your friends or waiting until later in the afternoon. You can grab jerseys, hats, accessories of all sorts to support your team! My favorite thing is to play up the colors of each team that I enjoy watching. If your colors are black and gold, I’ll find cute jean shorts, a black and white-striped sweatshirt and comfortable sneakers to wear.
Charge Those Phones: Today, many of our phones can give us anxiety when we reach a certain battery life percentage. Make sure that you provide portable chargers for you and your friends to stay connected throughout the game. We also love bringing our portable speaker to keep music playing and keep our momentum up before the big game! Some friends even bring a flat screen TV with a portable antenna for live game coverage if you don’t have tickets but you still feel as if you’re right there with everyone outside the stadium.
Look Beyond The Tailgate!

Great tips! I do need to plan a bit better before heading out the door 🙂
I wish we were sports people sometimes because my husband and I just don't really get into it all that much! But tailgating always looks SO much fun!
