It's the last great American neighborhood  - the tailgating neighborhood.  Where no one locks their doors, everyone is happy to see you and all are together sharing fun, food and football!

It's families.  It's fans.  It's a community social.  It's pre-game, halftime, post-game and more.  It's the total game day experience!

 

COMMISSIONER OF TAILGATING
Joe Cahn, The Commissioner of Tailgating is Tailgating  America!
The Commissioner is visiting NFL, College and High School Stadiums.   He's going to NASCAR Tracks and any other Tailgating party he can find  across America.  He generally visits between 40 and 50 college and pro football stadiums each year. But Joe rarely goes to the game itself. “Too busy tailgating,” he says. “It’s a tough job, but somebody’s got to do it.”

He's living the American Dream. It's every sports fan's fantasy!  And yes...he does need your help...
