When we arrived at our lot for last Saturday's game, we were informed by the policeman at the gate that tents were verboten Though we do not use a tent for tailgating, there are several other groups who have done so for years. They never used other parking spaces, interfered with other patrons, or blocked vehicle movement. I checked the brochure that comes with tickets and, yes, that is the policy. Beach umbrellas are also forbidden! I can only assume that they inadvertently failed to print a policy banning hats and rain gear. Next year, alcohol and grills? The Tailgate Guys must have failed to reach their profit projections for 2017.
Tailgating: The writing is clearly on the wall.
