Wear Blue! Show <strong>your</strong> team spirit by donning blue attire and <strong>TU</strong> letters.<br />

Plan <strong>your</strong> menu and prepare food for the grill a day or two before the game. Keep<br />

the menu simple and pack prepared food in disposable containers.<br />

Make a list of the items you want <strong>to</strong> take along, like a <strong>TU</strong> football, Frisbee and chairs.<br />

Plan <strong>to</strong> arrive three <strong>to</strong> four hours early and stay one <strong>to</strong> two hours after the game.<br />

Find a good spot <strong>to</strong> park near Skelly Stadium. Try a grassy area or at the end of the<br />

parking row – this gives you more room for serious tailgating.<br />

Fly a <strong>TU</strong> flag so friends can find you.<br />

Decorate <strong>your</strong> tailgate site with Golden Hurricane paraphernalia.<br />

Meet <strong>your</strong> tailgate neighbors and <strong>TU</strong> family.<br />

Food should be ready an hour and a half before the game starts. This is plenty<br />

of time for those going <strong>to</strong> the game <strong>to</strong> eat, clean up and extinguish fires.<br />

Leave area clean. Begin thinking about food and friends for the next <strong>TU</strong> game.<br />

Fast Facts<br />

30% of tailgaters never set foot inside the stadium.<br />

(But we hope you will!)<br />

<strong>TU</strong>’s current mascot is Captain Cane, an anthropomorphized<br />

golden hurricane with human attributes such as<br />

biceps and a perpetual smirk. Before Captain Cane was<br />

born, previous team names included the Kendallites,<br />

Presbyterians, Tigers and the Tulsans.<br />
