Tailgate Destination Daytona: All You Need to Know

Real race fans see the pilgrimage to Daytona for the 400 as a must do before they die. By far the best time you will have in Daytona is to get there for the 125's and stay till Sunday. Daytona is too expensive to get there Saturday, and watch only the Saturday and Sunday race. 

Remember when doing the infield there are 2 simple rules:
1) The higher you are, the better the view.
2) You will have to "RUN WITH WHAT YOU BRUNG!" You can leave the infield and there is a KMart and Mall outside BUT it is a hike.

Now before you go, there are some things you need to know:

Monday Morning Wake Up Call: Florida

This should be right up there with prestigious pre-game traditions, such as "Rubbing of Howard's Rock" and "Dotting the I". We're just saying.

Fighting For Their Right To Tailgate

The fight is officially on for Redskin Fans to save tailgating, as they know it.

What is now being called “Tailgate-gate” is now turning into a full out battle to allow tailgaters to park anywhere in the lot they desire as long as they have the appropriate parking pass. The Reason? The Redskin Organization has revised its parking policy to include the following:

Texas Tech Brings A-Game for Tailgate Grillin'

As if Texas needed another "bigger in Texas" moment, here is a demonstration of some of the over the top grills seen at Texas Tech's Raidergate. Proof once again that everything is bigger in Texas. This video may be a bit old, but as we get closer to the season, there is nothing like these videos to draw up some fall emotion.

Monday Morning Wake Up Call: Oklahoma

On the wake up call this morning, we have a double feature with some Oklahoma Sooner goodness.

TailgateLot.com's First APB Officially Posted

So here it is, TailgateLot.com has officially put out its first "All Points Bulletin (APB)" for this absolutely monstrous tailgate machine. Watch the video, and right after about 10 seconds you will catch a glimpse of what looks likes the Holy Grail of electronically equipped tailgate vehicles. It would be a crime if we do not feature this truck on our website. Iowa State Fans, you of course, can help us the most when it comes to capturing this wicked, and probably mythical machine. However, we do have to say the best part of this video comes at about 22 seconds. The guy shooting the film, in an attempt at being as inconspicuous of possible, pulls a move from the 1930's, and whistles to make himself blend in with the crowd. Classic!

Rev Up A 4-Stroke Gas-Powered Party Blender

This 4-Stroke Gas-Powered Party Blender has the reminiscence of one of Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor's fictitious powerful creations. However, we can guarantee that this is not fiction, and after grabbing the handlebars of this bad boy, and revving up its powerful 23cc 4-stroke gas engine, you'll be left wondering why you never had one before. This item is certainly not for the casual tailgater, but for the attention seeking, over-the-top tailgater who's looking to put on a good show for his faithful. The Party Blender is the ultimate icebreaker!

Features include telescopic legs that extend to a comfortable working height and retract for compact storage, and a stainless steel pitcher that detaches for easy pouring and cleanup. We don't want to leave you wondering, so the dimensions are 16" Long x 15" Wide x 21" Tall.

And if you were wondering why you would need a 23cc 4-Stroke Gas-Powered Party Blender, you definitely don't need one.

Monday Morning Wake Up Call: USC

Are you really going to tell us that Mark Sanchez didn't want to stay one more year in a campus littered with USC Song Girls.

Cruise the Tailgate Scene with a Fold Up Golf Cart

Some tailgaters like to remain on their "claimed territory" until gametime, and others just can't seem to sit still. Well, if you're one of those tailgaters who like to roam around to check out the scene, here is the best way to do it. The RV RoVer is the first 4-seater golf cart that doesn't use a trailer or rack to be hauled. The vehicle can be disassembled and attached to any class 2 or 3 hitch in less than 4 minutes.

Texas Longhorn Fan Tailgates In Style

Creative Mobile Interiors (CMI), a custom conversion company in Grove City, Ohio, recently delivered a high end custom Sprinter restaurant chain owner complete with all the fixins’. The Sprinter van was built to lock horns at University of Texas tailgate parties and for extensive travel with friends and family. Starting out on a 2008 170” extended cargo cab chassis, CMI added such tailgate essentials as a refrigerator and microwave; bathroom, and of course, an extensive audio/visual system.

The audio/visual package includes a Pioneer multimedia system and two 26” LCD TV monitors. One of the monitors flips up and down from the ceiling using motorized power lifts. The other monitor is mounted to the wall towards the back of the Sprinter on the driver’s side. This allows for TV viewing from any place in the Sprinter’s main cabin area. CMI removed the factory stereo and replaced it with the Pioneer system which consists of a CD/MP3/DVD/GPS and back-up camera. Other built-in amenities include a KVH In-Motion satellite dish, wireless internet, gaming jacks, and wireless headsets.
