Ranking the top 10 tailgating spots in college football
By Phil Poling
The LSU Tigers have one of the best home-field advantages in college football thanks to their raucous fans in Death Valley. With a large number of night games over the years, too, tailgating in Baton Rouge has become an all-day event.
Does it help that the Tigers are routinely competitive? Sure. But their membership with the SEC puts them near the top of best places to tailgate. There’s just something about football in the south that gets people out and about. And it’s not just a New Orleans thing, either; Baton Rouge knows how to party.
From RVs with full bars to Louisiana-style cooking, Tiger fans know how to treat themselves on game day. They’ll be doing so when LSU hosts Georgia Southern, Northwestern State, Utah State, Florida, Auburn, Arkansas and Texas A&M.
