Though I have never been a “huge” fan of football, I can safely say that tailgating is my favorite aspect of the sports traditions here at the University of Alabama. I love the food, fun and atmosphere created by people who love the same school that I do.
This weekend, I am especially looking forward to the Rising Tide Student Tailgate. Rising Tide is a free tailgate that offers students at UA a chance to mingle with each other on the Quad.
When I attended the tailgate last year, there was plenty of food by Full Moon Barbecue, a live band and even video games (which is my kind of tailgate)!
I especially love the outreach that Rising Tide creates for students. Last year, this student tailgate promoted alcohol awareness for those tailgating with them. Rising Tides is still supporting this cause through their Facebook page through the “Less Than U Think” campaign.
I hope to see the same amount of outreach and support for UA students during the next couple of tailgates on the Quad!
If you would like more information on the Rising Tide tailgate, be sure to like “Rising Tide Student Tailgate" or "The Ferg at UA" on Facebook!
