Worried that the word tailgate=alcohol=whatever bad thing you want to fill in the blank with.

This is how tailgating died at BYU. Lame narrow-minded people shut it down.

I don't understand this. Tailgaiting is totally awesome even without drinking

Why do we get together for ice cream socials and all kinds of social activities

The bigger issue is large families and Saturday activities

Totally disagree. I’ve been around a little, most recently Death Valley for LSU

It revolves around tailgating. Alcohol is a part of tailgating.

Yes, it is a part. But the point is, for BYU, tailgaiting can totally be a thing

Wrong.

Not accurate at all. It doesn’t revolve around drinking

While you are getting a lot of hate on this, I happen to think you are spot on.

You are making the counter point. If they weren’t drinking at tailgate...

Medute

You seem to claim that people get together before games for the sake of it.

Our independent schedule with Thurs/Fri games also makes it harder to tailgate

There is some merit to this .

All true statements...but Mormons can potluck and eat like no one else. Food is the second draw for tailgating

I disagree. You dont need alcohol to have fun and enjoy time with each other.
