Five Must-Have Items for Tailgating

Football season starts in a few short weeks.

That means tailgate parties!

Is it time to upgrade your old tailgating gear? Need something new, more durable or just plain fun.

TailgatingIdeas.com has a wealth of knowledge for those planning to dine in a parking lot or two this season.

Tailgating can go on for hours, so there's a lot to consider when choosing a cooler. While pricey, you can't go wrong with a Yeti, tailgaters say. While this cooler can handle the abuse of being lugged to tailgates, tripped over during a flag football game, it still has the ability to chill your beverages.

Looking for something to put those chips in to take to a tailgating party? Check out Bagbowl. It's big enough to hold your stuff and then it folds down flat when the parties over.

"Red Solo Cup, I fill you up, Let's have a party" — Not only is it a fun song, but there's also and array of koozies, wine glasses and goblets.

Need a TV in your tailgate area that doesn't take up space on the table for all the delicious tailgating snacks? Check out Hitch-N-View. 

The vertical version of the classic beer pong game is the new and improved Basket Pong.
