MSU now has a preferred 3rd party tailgate provider..

Which will offer packages on a single game rate out at the old intramural fields.

That doesn't sound good if you use one of the other tailgate companies. I have a feeling we're about to be relocated again.

I'll be there at 4 next Friday to set up my tent. How far away from Starkville city limits am I going to be?

No Sat/TV rental? Busch league...

 

[57stratdawg]

No doubt.

 

[dorndawg]

I always thought that was kinda the point of hiring someone?

 

[Hellsyeah]

So for $400 I get a tent, table, 4 chairs, and a tub of ice. Not sure I see the bargain

 

[Col. Forbin]

And for an additional $60 you can have a corn hole game at your tailgate. Sign me up******

 

[patdog]

Seems like a lot of money for a very bare bones package.

 

[rem101]

Why the 17 would anyone want to set up out there? And it looks to be more expensive than Southern Tailgate for barely anything.

 

[aTotal360]

It makes sense from Stricklin's perspective. The 2 main outfits are making good money and are probably turning away business. SS probably calculated he could make more money out of bringing in an "officially licensed" 3rd party outfit instead of giving the current 2 guys more space.

 

[Col. Forbin]

You have a link to where it says they are the preferred company of the university?

 

[Dawguire]

Does anyone know of any students or anyone else setting up tents this year other than teh commercial outfits. Just found out our guy from last year is no longer setting tents up.

NEW TAILGATING OPTION ON CAMPUS

With our home opener just over one week away, this is a great time to share that we will have even more possibilities for those who want to tailgate on campus before games this year.

We're happy to announce that Tailgater Concierge is now one of Mississippi State's preferred tailgate providers. Tailgater Concierge is a service available at many schools throughout the U.S., specializing in one-stop, hassle-free tailgating.

They provide the tents, tables, chairs and ice, and they also coordinate all food you need for the day.

Tailgater Concierge will have the tailgate area just south of The Junction and Davis Wade Stadium in the old intramural fields. If you’re interested in their services, visit their website at www.tailgaterconcierge.com.

I'm guessing if they were really the preferred company they wouldn't be at the old intramural fields. Unless Stricklin wanted to make sure that all the people using existing companies had a season's notice before they gave the university licensed company the best spots.

"We're happy to announce that Tailgater Concierge is now one of Mississippi State's preferred tailgate providers."

It just sounds to me like a new company decided they want to come to MSU and we said yes and stuck them on the IM fields. The others should not be affected

 

[57stratdawg]

Maybe. I guess the word "preferred" seems a little unsettling to me.

 

[aTotal360]

Preferred = I'll give you that sanction for a bigger cut of the pie

 

[patdog]

Every tailgate provider on campus is a "preferred" provider. It just means they paid whatever the school charges to let them set up tents on campus.
