Tailgating on Saturday for UCF Game

So a buddy and I were going to fire up the grill here at the house, less than a mile north of campus. But is there any opportunity to tailgate outside Moody at all? Maybe bring some hot food off the grill, a couple of folding chairs, and drink? What are others doing?

I don't see anyone bothering you on the very top floor of the Binkley garage.

A bunch of my buddies and I are going to Barley before the game.

I wish they would do a blvd type thing for saturday games outside of Moody on the stretch in front all the way down to dedman. Maybe next year SID?

We tried last yr & asked - when nobody went to games thru Leonard. The In&out truck was a good touch.

Times have changed though…sold out crowds. Opportunity to make even more money with beer/food sales outside stadium

Buddy and I emailed Hart about this about a month ago ... Says they explored the idea of a "mini-boulevard" before select Saturday games, but said their focus this year was 100% getting the new Moody up and running smoothly.

Did say basketball tailgating will be in the planning / cards for next season.

Nice. It would be incredible

If you're talking a cooler of beer up there, maybe not, but fire up the grill in an enclosed structure with that many cars (read: "gas tanks") and I assume you'd be shut down in an instant.

Absolutely the best place for the tailgate would be at Mrydel's place.
