Tailgating should be fun, not another stressful thing to plan and prep for on game day. Instead, enjoy the game with minimal fuss and spend time hanging out with friends and family by crossing these tasks off your to-do list first.
Prep-ahead Snacks & Sliders
Mini sandwiches, pinwheels, and dips can all be made the night before. Serve them cold or warm them up on a portable grill or oven.
One Cooler for Drinks, One for Food
Keep drinks and perishable items separate so you're not constantly digging. It keeps things cold—and cuts down on crowding.
Portable Seating & Table Gear
Collapsible chairs, tables, and even trays make setup simple. Look for lightweight, easy-to-carry items that pack flat.
DIY Snack Stations
Let guests build their own nachos, sliders, or snack mix. It’s fun, customizable, and keeps your hands free during kickoff.
Game Day Decor + Team Colors
A few flags, themed plates, or team-colored napkins bring the spirit. It makes your setup feel festive without overcomplicating it.
With a little prep and the right setup, you can enjoy game day with less work and more cheering!
