Here are a few other tailgating rules you should know about before you pack up your grill and head for the stadium:
- Your vehicle and your tailgating set-up can only occupy one parking space and the area immediately in front of or behind the vehicle.
- RVs and other oversized vehicles may only be parked in the designated lot.
- Charcoal fires, large grills and open flames are not permitted.
- Kegs and other bulk containers of alcohol are prohibited on the property and no drinking games are allowed.
- Tossing around a frisbee or football in parking areas is a no-no.
- Leave your canopies and tents at home--tailgaters are not allowed to pound anything into the ground.
- You'll have to do your own cooking; outside caterers are not permitted on the property.
- While sharing your feast with your neighbors is a good way to make friends, if you try to sell any food or beverages, you can get in trouble.
- Trash should be bagged and disposed of in available receptacles, which are plentiful.
- No outside food or drink is allowed inside the stadium.
- Once the game is underway, you need to either be inside the stadium or vacate the Rentschler Field property.
