Tailgating Tips from Thelen VW
Now that football season is here, it’s the perfect time for spending time with friends and tailgating! Here are some helpful tips and tricks from the staff at Thelen Volkswagen in Bay City, Michigan, to ensure your tailgating experience goes smoothly.
Tips and Tricks for Tailgating
- Pick the Right Equipment – When it comes to tailgating, grilling is very popular. A portable, easy-to-use grill can be your best friend, enabling you to whip up everything from juicy burgers to skewered vegetables. A sturdy cooler will keep your drinks chilled and food fresh.
- Seating Options – You’re probably going to want to have some options for when you sit down to eat, whether that’s camping chairs, a picnic blanket, a pop-up awning, or some combination of the above.
- Fun Games for the Whole Group – No tailgate is complete without some fun and games. From traditional games like cornhole and ladder toss to frisbee or even football, these activities can keep everyone entertained before the big game starts!
- Cleaning Supplies – You don’t want to leave your tailgating site a total mess, nor do you want your car to become a rolling dumpster. Bring some baggies for leftover food and some big garbage bags for disposing of waste. We also recommend having a roll or two of aluminum foil, which can be useful in wrapping up leftovers.
