Another season of tailgating awaits. Another season of food, fun and meeting new people is only a few weeks away. But we need sponsors for each tailgate so that fans can simply show up and enjoy without the hassle of bringing everything themselves. For 7 years in a row every game has been sponsored. Over $20,000 dollars have been raised and over 600 bikes donated to Toys for Tots.

If you're not familiar with the process, here's how it works:

We get sponsors to pay $250 for each tailgate. In return we buy all the food and non-alcoholic drinks plus provide a dry covered area to tailgate. The tailgate is open to anyone, and when you partake you place a donation in the bucket at the end of the serving line. Because the tailgate has been sponsored, 100% of the money that goes into the bucket is used to purchase bikes at the end of the season to give to Toys for Tots at the stadium. The bikes will be donated on Dec. 9th during the tailgate vs. the Falcons. We could not do all of this without sponsors.

The sponsor will be recognized the week of the tailgate. If the sponsor is a business they are welcome to bring banners, giveaways, etc. at the tailgate.

The only game that has been taken is October 7th vs. the Seahawks and thanks to Bo in Monroe and Northern Hawk for sponsoring it. That tailgate and that one only will not be for Toys for Tots but instead go to a fund for the children of a longtime poster (Cooter) that passed away last month.

The following games are available:

Sept. 16 vs. Saints*
Sept. 20 vs. Giants
Oct. 21 vs. Cowboys
Nov. 11 vs. Broncos
Nov. 18 vs. Tampa Bay
Dec. 9 vs. Atlanta
Dec. 23 vs. Raiders

If there is interest in sponsoring preseason games vs. Houston August 11th or Miami August 17th those are at a discount of $200. If no sponsors step up for those games then there will be no preseason tailgates.

Please sign up for one in this thread if you want to sponsor, payment would not be due until a week or two before the actual game. If you have any questions, direct them in this thread. Thanks.
