Tailgate Contest

The Country’s Best Tailgaters! (Thanks to Dial-Global Show Prep!)

Fanatical tailgaters are gearing up for the return of college football, and National Brands Cajun Injector and The Original Louisiana Hot Sauce are searching for the best of the best. Winners will receive national corporate sponsorship and be deemed the official “Pro Tailgaters.” Tailgaters can submit a YouTube video showcasing their dedication and passion for college football tailgating. Three teams with the most enthusiastic viral videos from different colleges across the U.S. will be chosen. They’ll receive smokers, fryers, cookware, tents, cooking tables, ice chests, clothing and a weekly allowance for a selection of meat and beverages. One winner will receive an Original Louisiana Hot Sauce Mascot Costume complete with an internal cooling system. Winners will be announced September 1st. Visit www.cajuninjector.com/tailgating to submit your video.

Tailgating Tips:
1. Always dress in team colors and don’t forget to dress for the weather.
2. Timing is everything: Food should always be ready about two hours before the game.
3. Plan to arrive three to four hours early and stay one to two hours after the game.
4. Plan your menu. Keep your menu simple, but not too simple - and always spice it up!
5. Fly your team’s colors with a flag or designate a monument so people can find you.
6. Make a list of items you’re taking out to your spot.
7. Meet your tailgate neighbors; you may need to borrow something or share in the celebration of a winning season.
8. Decorate your tailgate site either in team colors or a theme; make it fun.
9. Always find a good place to park. Be strategic in your parking either – close to restrooms or entrances to the game.
10. Leave your area as clean as it was when you arrived.
