Tailgating, Like Church Happens on Sunday
Nothing is greater than enjoying a live football game except tailgating before the football game. We're not talking about parking your car in the parking lot, and gathering with friends, and grilling outside. Tailgating is more than that. It's a rite of passage, a gathering of fellow lovers of football all fueled by a passionate undying love of the home team. When I tailgate, I love to go with my family, and a large group of friends. Of course I also set my home security system (click here for more information) before leaving to tailgate. We all cram into several vans packed with food head to Arrowhead Stadium. We love the Kansas City Chiefs , and proudly wear the yellow and red. When we arrive at Arrowhead Stadium, we along with the other tens of thousands of Chiefs fans turn the parking lot into a sea of red. Tailgating is a part of our football culture. The hours spent grilling burgers, hot dogs, and brats create a bond between everyone in the parking lot. Everyone that passes you is a fellow believer and loyal follower the home team. We can talk with anyone about how good important the quarterback play is, or how worried we are about the defense, and how much we hate the opposing team. If football is religion, than the parking lot where we tailgate is like church.
