It will be great.

It will directly correlate to our record.

This^. If we are winning, people will continue to show up. If we are losing....

Actually I think the rent-a-tailgate tent is perfect for BYU's fan base

It’s taken off at Alabama. It’s what most people do actually and it’s very fun. I’m very excited for it

Agree. It’s a good idea

Will enough people pay for it? Most BYU fans are cheapskates

You’ve made a number of massive generalizations in this thread.

Maybe I've lived in Utah county for too long.

Most BYU fans pay tithing, fast offerings, and have many children.

I think it can/will include people who won't go inside the stadium too.

This seems likely to me. Basically a pre-game party for anyone.

Who in their right mind would battle gameday traffic to play cornhole?

I'm regularly accused of not being in my right mind, so not a great counter example, but I probably would IF

My wife and I are childless so maybe thats part of why I cannot relate.

This will be a strong indicator of how well our fans compare to the SEC fans

6 whole saturdays a year. Must be such a sacrifice.

Same lame reasons people give for not tailgating.

Exactly. It's only 6 Saturdays a year. Pay a neighbor kid 15$ to mow the lawn.

A big chunk of fans who attend games are.

I wouldn’t say BYU’s fan base is much more affluent than others..

If BYU is 2-4 by the BSU game, no one will show up to tailgate.

All they have to do is offer free food samples and the place will be wall to wall with families and Sr. Citizens.
