South Florida Tailgate - Recap

Updated: 6 days ago



It was a long day!

It was a beautiful GameDay in Tuscaloosa followed by a long night game. Sometimes you got to just take a break and get some rest!


Over 250 attended the CrimsonAti tailgate for the South Florida game, followed by a hard fought 42-16 win! The food just kept coming throughout the day. We celebrated Nacho Alabamo's Birthday at the tent. Fans lined up all day for a photo with Nacho. Lou made Skyline coneys that disappeared in no time. John's yellow hammers were a big hit as always. Then you had Walt's Boston butt with his homemade BBQ sauce, sliders, fried chicken, wings, salads of all types, Skyline/goetta dip, Grippo's BBQ chips, Elizabeth's rum cake, and a multitude of cold drinks. Virginia (VA) was kept busy all day checking people in.


Our couch potatoes

We finally got the TV working and our couch potatoes watched the other big games of the day. If anyone would like to sponsor a new TV/Satellite system (ours is outdated), get in touch with us at 937.205.7916. We'll put the name of your company on the TV for all to see.


Pulled pork sliders!

Thank you to everyone that brought food and drink. We had plenty to eat and drink. It's a real community effort to make our 'Taste of Home' tailgate great! Lou's Skyline coneys were very popular.


Hot dog, chili sauce, onion and cheddar cheese

Hey Owen, where ya goin'? They're after more ice, which is something always needed at our tailgate.

We need more ice!

Here are a few photos from our tailgate:


People stop by the tent and ask 'How can we join this tailgate?' We ask them if they are from Greater Cincinnati, Dayton, northern Kentucky or anywhere in Ohio. That's when they say 'my great uncle's nephew is from Cincinnati!' That's good enough, sign up! More photos from the tailgate:


Do you see anyone you know? Our tailgate is where neighbors meet neighbors they never knew they had. More photos from the tents:



We often think of Aidan Moncelle at the tent and many of his classmates show up to share their stories of Aidan. We miss him! More tailgaters:


Our most popular questions among tailgaters? "Where's the Skyline? Do you have Graeter's ice cream? Where is that goetta dip? Is that where you make your own Skyline coney? Is that orange juice or yellow hammers? Last but not least...Where's the restrooms?" More photos:


We look forward to the Georgia game. It will be a record crowd for sure. Plan ahead and let's keep it going! Thank you to our tailgate sponsor, Apartments for Legends of Tuscaloosa.

It was a special day for Alabama fans for the unveiling of Saban Field at Bryant-Denny Stadium. He's the greatest coach of all time (GOAT).


What a halftime dedication!

Here's a recap of the game:
