Lots of places say that. Bring red cups so you don't have to drink out of the bottles.

Ya, but the look I received from a women in the tailgating discussion, when I spoke matter-of-factly of alcohol at tailgating (never thinking that there was one without the other), caused me to grow very self-conscious about the apparent second head that must have sprung out of my shoulders.  Whoa!  Talk about a fart in church...

If you get caught, just tell them Pat Coleman said it was ok... , they'll understand.

blu, I would not worry about it. Grinell is probably the most conservative and they just said what Pat said, keep it under wraps. We tailgate at all the games, home and away. SNC has a NO KEG policy. I can't believe that. 

You will be fine with your style of tailgating, I am sure.

Oh, I have a lifetime of experience here (less about 15 years)   I was just suprised.  Like I said.  Never knew there was tailgating w/o.  Again, I don't even drink (for the last 1 1/2 years).

You guys are probably right about the red cups....  I just think it's interesting that the czar of "your number one source for Division III football information" is so quick to promote violating the rules.     He probably also thinks it's okay to ground your club in a bunker!

Ya Blu and you thought ridiculous things like recruiting and coaching were going to turn the program around.  We now all know the real reason for IC's lack of success. Jeez what kind of football Dad let's their kid go to a school that doesn't allow tailgaiting!? What will your steer buddies back in Texass think when they hear this. Jeez I think even BYU allows it. 

[Moncolfan]

Hey Scottie-I had a hard time typing that last post-couldn't stop laughing after reading yours! Is it true that MC now has a designated tailgaiting area about a half mile from the field? If this is true I want a refund on my season tickets!

The two main tailgating areas in Ripon that fill up are a middle school and church parking lot across the street......if that gives you an idea of the tailgating polices adhered to there

Ground your club? He'd probably rather dig a 10' hole in the ground, throw in all the clubs & bag (and any golfer standing around), and then fill in the dirt!! Do you actually think Pat has time to think about golf?

We've actually been asked not to use red cups, Pat.  Seems the campus police have 'broken the code.'

[SNCOLDAD]

In Wisconsin, tailgating Is a religion. Just paint the kegs your favorite color to hide the contents. 


GO GREEN KNIGHTS

[Mr. Ypsi]

Coffee cups (including styrofoam) - who's gonna check?

When I went to a football game at Hope, I stayed at a campground that was "alcohol free".  While I would have had no problem evading them, I asked them, and they replied: "If you're not rowdy or falling-down drunk, we aren't gonna sniff your glass".  Same thing held true at the "alcohol free" Hope tailgate.

Being discrete can work wonders (in my case, having grey hair might have helped as well! )

What's with the red cups?  Dixie makes a beautiful navy blue 20 oz. plastic cup. I'm really looking forward to seeing if the tailgating in Wisconsin measures up to what I'm used to.

You guys in Texas only think you're tailgating.
