[tjbison]

Anyone have the info, rules, hours, etc.. for tailgating before the game post them here.

[Bison bison]

It's Texas.

You can drink beer anywhere as long as its Lone Star.

They will have a seperate area called NCAA village or something like that which opens at 9:00. I do know that parking spots are 10.00 each. I will find out about when the lots actually open up tomorrow when I call to pay for the reserved tickets.

TAILGATING
Pre-match tailgating is permitted if conducted in a safe and respectful manner and does not disrupt other fans, interfere with normal parking procedures or extend into additional spaces. Outside food companies are not permitted to deliver catering orders for tailgate activities. All tailgating activities must comply with proper (http://www.pizzahutpark.com/Home/GuestServices/PoliciesAZ/tabid/80/Default.aspx)fan decorum. No open flame grills allowed.

Alcohol sales will vary depending on the type of event. ???

Isn't Texas the state where you can drink in a car as long as you aren't driving?

[onbison09]

IT DID?! (JK) But the tailgating scene is weaksauce compared to the dome. People were tailgating across the street in hotel parking lots

[bisonhp330]

dont worry....CAS will defend you....right after he bails himself out!!

...however, feel free to shoot any caliber of automatic weapon from your vehicle once you're south of Nebraska.

From the moving car nonetheless. Seriously though I did read in that same article how it is legal in the state of Mississippi to drink while driving as long as you aren't over the limit. At least the state law says that, it appears to be locally restricted. Wow. a different world for sure.

[steelbison]

If anyone has any contact information for tailgating it would be greatly appreciated! We will be bringing a bus down and just need to know what we will need.


Thanks!

[steelbison]

Oops. My bad. Thanks for the info!!

[bison93]

Ok.. let's get down to business. Talked to Pizza Hut Park office. Lots will open up at 8am. Home team will tailgate in Red and away in Blue. I believe the Bison will be the home team. We will be bringing a trailer with grills, tables, etc. Hopefully we'll get some more driving buses, etc. so that we have some tailgate action.. Frisco here we come! :cheers:

is this really going to be an issue? Most, if not all of them will be flying and renting cars.

Not sure what you mean. Just posted that sides are not assigned. That is different than past years.

[Bison 4 Life]

Right. I'm just saying it will likely be a bunch of large tailgating setups on one side and some smaller tailgates on the other. I heard their tailgating isn't really involved.

[Bison bison]

I heard JMU tailgating consists of looking at their streamers, talking about the last time they threw streamers, talking about that one time they threw streamers, making sure that everyone has streamers, making sure that everyone remembers to bring their streamers in with them, keeping the streamers in condition, talking about how many streamers they are going to throw, how far they are going to throw streamers, talking about how far that one guy threw his streamers that one time, discussing where to buy streamers, etc.

For the record...Are theyactual streamers? Or rolls of crepe paper? Just sayin.

[Mr Meaty]

Maybe the shotwagon will have a streamer themed drink for that day.
Streamer Stumplifter?
Streamer Pale Ale?
Whiskey Streamer?
Stream shotski?
Steaming Streamer? second thought that does not sound like a good name for a drink.

Is this like, a take home quiz or something? If we get the right answer do we win anything? Other than a streamer?

I'll take "What is Urban Dictionary?" for $200...

There will be no designated lots for NDSU or JMU. 20.00 a spot. First come first served.

$20 a spot?! Has it always been that high? Man, they are making a killing.

[56BISON73]

It was the last time we were there. I think it was cheaper at 1 and 2.

Havent heard if they are going to let rigs in the night before.

I am not taking my rig down this year but the last time we parked the night before in the lot and it was a lot of fun.

[56BISON73]

When we went to the Friday practice there were a lot of Bison rigs already in the lot that year.

The year before the last one we took our tailgate trailer down and parked Friday as well. That was nice.

[BisonTeacher]

Isn't that kind of the point of hosting an event like this?

Pretty sure I read somewhere that there will be NO overnight parking allowed this year...

[TransAmBison]

Pretty sure I read somewhere that there will be NO overnight parking allowed this year...Will naps be allowed at the bars?

[bri-dog]

I'll let you know on January 7. :biggrin:

[EC8CH]

Might need to start a petition.

Bison fans have been overnight parking in Frisco for about as long as Duke fans have been throwing streamers.

[Bison 4 Life]

What are they doing? Have all that bullshit happen for an hour at 7 am then pack up 3 hours later?

[bri-dog]

Found the site:

http://www.ncaa.com/championships/football/fcs/venue-info

Some highlights lowlights from there...

• No overnight parking is available.
• Lots open at 7 a.m. All spectators are encouraged not to come before this time as traffic lineups will not be permitted. Parking lots will stay open after the game, but all vehicles must be off property by 11:30 p.m. that night.


Seriously????

Seriously????

did they not have these rules in place before, and in 2012 the stadium released a thing saying to come park your rig Friday night?

[Professor Chaos]

I'm emailing them. Showing up the night before is our tradition. This is bullshit!!!!! So unfair!!!!!!

[Bison 4 Life]

this is way worse than streamers.

[Honeybooboo]

this is way worse than streamers.

#tailgate...gate?

[Bison 4 Life]

Who gives a shit about hanging out for 7 hours after the game is over? This whole thing is stupid.


Guess we'll grass-gate on the berm between the parking lot and CS.

They have this every year; and every year they make the call to let people park their rigs overnight to help with traffic and flow in the morning.

[Bison56]

JMU goes 1 time and screws it up for everyone.

[Honeybooboo]

They have this every year; and every year they make the call to let people park their rigs overnight to help with traffic and flow in the morning.

yep, I'm pretty sure we dealt with this in the past and it was after they say the mess in 2011 (2012) and they changed it for the 2012 (2013) game.

[THEsocalledfan]

And they also never enforce the start time. Folks come whenever they want.

[Bison_Pyro]

And they also never enforce the start time. Folks come whenever they want.

absolutely correct. We stay at the comfort suites by the stadium and 2 years ago, I remember looking out the window at roughly 545am and there were plenty of people flowing in to the lot. That's when I realized I was late!

[bri-dog]

Yeah, maybe those rules were in effect before and just never enforced. The first 4 years, we were always in the first 5-10 vehicles in line at 5:30-ish; they started letting us in early after the first one. Then the last one, we parked the bus in the lot on Friday night and took Uber over to the lot at 6:00 am or so.

[Bison 4 Life]

Did they expressly prohibit the overnight parking in past years?

I think they did the first 4 years. The fifth year, they allowed it.

We parked the night before for the last 4 years. Took us 1 year to catch on.

[td577]

Against JSU we not only parked the night before, we stayed there Friday night. Uber'd to a few bars around midnight and went back to our rv and crashed.

[56BISON73]

They still had to wait for them to unlock the gates. They dont want a line so they get there pretty early.
