It's so much more than "a BBQ on ashpalt."
Come to Lincoln. Go to Oxford. Based on your description I doubt you have been to a real tailgate.

correct. Sitting in a lawn chair in a parking lot - only interesting with beer

this is why you must have good eats, games, friends and some feed to FB games

This is so true. Tailgaters there had not one 50" screen in their tent

You've missed the idea. Tailgating, done well, is a big dill for other schools

Oh my. You're soooo wrong. Just once you need to walk through Utah's lot
Crazy Cajun

Utah? Um, ok. Not really known for winning the tailgating standard

Oh my, get out of Utah and go to real tailgaiting.

Sorry. Although I agree Utah is not up to the SEC tailgating standard, no BYU

There is no BYU tailgating. I don't understand.

I have been to maybe 15 different tailgates and Utah's is just as good

The alcohol thing is an excuse. Lots of BYU fans dont even attend the whole game

No. People tailgate for football in the Marriott Center parking lot. Awesome!

If BYU could put up screens with feeds to other games in the parking lot

If tailgating doesn't work out or isn't fun, it's the fan's fault, not BYU's
