ontd_football Hey everyone, this is for everyone going to the RM game at the Rose Bowl in LA!!:
I know someone posted something similar below me, but I have something a little more specific and longer lasting in mind, so hopefully this works for everyone.
Where: Rose Bowl Stadium, parking lot 2
When: Saturday, August 7th, from 3:30 pm until whenever
What: Tailgate!! (no, I will not bring a grill)
So here's the deal, for those of you unfamiliar with the term 'tailgate'...it's basically a parking lot pre-game party. Pretty much consists of various alcoholic substances, generally unhealthy snacks (as long as it comes pre-made or in a bag), socializing, playing music from the parked car with the doors open, and sometimes dancing/flailing/jumping around (usually this comes after the alcohol, but can be before)
My friend (sanakas_lay) and I will arrive as early as possible to secure a parking space, hopefully by 2:30 but no later than 3:30...this usually works best if we have around 4+ cars from our party in the spots next to, and across from our space to reserve that space for us, so if you can get there early, that's awesome. If you get there later, no worries, find a parking spot and then walk to Lot 2, **We'll be in the medium Blue, Toyota Camry...we'll probably make a sign or something to identify ourselves**
What do you need to do to contribute to making this a truly awesome experience?
-Show up (the earlier the better...let's get the party going!)
-If over 21, bring booze or snacks...if under 21, just snacks
-MAKE SIGNS (supporting RM, or just generally stating how fucking awesome we all are as fans...you get the idea)
There are only 2 rules to this (common sense really):
1) If you are UNDER 21, and decide to drink, do so at your own risk. If a cop happens to come by and check IDs or something...you have to handle it yourself, and "we thought you were 21"...don't mean to be harsh, but I'm not getting arrested for supplying minors.
2) As far as I know, there is nothing to make tailgating illegal...but security doesn't need a law to break it up...so don't do stuff like break glass, liter, whatever, anything that says "HELLO SECURITY! I'm loud and the bane of your existence! PAY ATTENTION TO ME!"...you get the idea, like I said, common sense, really.
Here's a map of the parking lots: www.rosebowlstadium.com/parking.htm
If you're a local and are familiar with the stadium, and see anything in here that doesn't work for whatever reason...let me know ASAP, so I can change the info and no one heads to the stadium w/ the wrong info. Thanks!
Just RSVP in the comments, if possible, please leave your e-mail so if anything changes, I can keep everyone up to date! If you know, go ahead and post a rough estimate of when you might get there and what you're bringing (especially if it's alcohol, to best avoid ending up with 5 bottles of vodka and nothing else haha)
HOPE TO SEE EVERYONE THERE!!
