Your Guide To A Great Tailgating Party!
Ah yes, the fun of tailgating! Sitting around in the great oudoors (okay, probably a great parking lot!) and enjoying good food, good drinks and great friends! What can be better than an old fashioned tailgate party before the game?
With football season fast approaching, we here at We Have Picnic Baskets wanted to bring you a short guide on how to have a great and successful tailgate party this year and everytime you throw one!
Step 1: Preparation
The key to having a great tailgating party is to prepare ahead of time. Make sure you have everything that you need well ahead, and save yourself the rushing around like a running back on the way to the end zone!
To have a great tailgating party, you will of course need a few things: a cooler big enough to store everything in, a gas grill to cook your food, bbq tools for cooking all that great food and of course the food and drinks!
A great way to get all of the above is to purchase the Vulcan Ultimate All-In-One Tailgating Kit available at We Have Picnic Baskets. It includes all the above (minus food and drinks) in one neat package. It has an enormous size cooler to store all your food and drinks, a gas grill to cook your burgers, sausages or hot dogs on (propane not included) and a 3 piece BBQ set to use with the gas grill. All of this can be shipped to your door in time for opening kickoff this season!
Of course you will need food for your tailgating party. It is recommended that you use easy to cook food though you could go gourmet if you wanted to! The most popular tailgating foods are burgers, hot dogs and sausages. All of which can be easily stored in your cooler and kept cold. It is very important to keep all of your meats as cold as possible to avoid food poisoning, which would really ruin your game!
Step 2: Game Day
On the day of your tailgate party, make sure you give yourself plenty of time to get ready before you leave. Make sure all of your food and drinks are stowed away in your cooler and pack lots of ice around them. Do this even if you are going to be outside in the dead of winter! You want everything to go off perfectly and this is not the time for salmonella to win the game instead of your favorite team!
After that, it is time to pack the car or truck and transport all the gear to the stadium parking lot. Once you have arrived there, unpack your cooler, bbq and other supplies and fire up the grill!
Of course you probably won't want to be standing the whole time you are there. That is why We Have Picnic Baskets has outdoor chairs for you to sit on as well! The Sports Chair features a fold out side table and an insulated drink holder. As well, for the cold games in the dead of winter, you do not want to be sitting on a cold, hard chair or metal bench at the game, so we also have the Stadium Seat to keep you comfortable even through an overtime thriller!
That is it! Follow this simple guide, along with all your essentials from We Have Picnic Baskets and you are sure to be a hit in the parking lot with your Vulcan Ultimate All-In-One Tailgating Kit and in the stadium with your stadium seat!
Enjoy the game!
