Beer, hamburgers, beer, kielbasa, beer, chips, hot wings and beer are all things that make a great tailgating party (don’t forget the beer). But there’s more to a great tailgating party then getting faced until you’re too drunk to get in the stadium (really, there is) and setting a up a truly great tailgate event so every other fan in the parking lot is green with envy (not just green with too much beer) is not an easy task. If you want your tailgate to be so awesome that some people would rather hang out behind your pickup then go in the stadium then you should check out some of these websites. Then, get ready for the hangover.

This site is run by Joe Cahn, the self-proclaimed Commissioner of Tailgating. This dude says he goes to over 40 college and pro football stadiums a year, not to go to the game, but just to tailgate and party. One must assume his blood alcohol level is around 1.0.
