According to their website, Blockparty currently (or, at least, will in 2018) also partners at: the Cotton Bowl, LSU, Missouri, San Diego State, SMU, Temple, UCLA and North Texas. They also are at Brewers games, the United Soccer League, and a number of music venues.

Not my cup of tea, but if you have some money to burn and want to throw a big tailgate without the hassle, seems like a good idea. For example at LSU, there are four options. You get a tent of varying size, furniture, cooler with ice, tables, and at the high end a TV with satellite.

Also seems like it'd be a good idea if you're looking to have a tailgate on the road.

Tailgate Town? I object to this just based on the alliteration.

Bear Grylls co-branding opportunity. Holler at Marshawn to hook it up.

So I've reached out to get some more details. We usually do at least one big tailgate per year, since most of us live OOS, so this could potentially solve a few annoying challenges.

As of now, they don't have a food & beverage solution. You're essentially renting space and furniture. Which solves a couple issues, but leaves a glaring hole in the tailgate. They did say that they will soon have some sort of catering option, I got the sense that it would be some sort of 3rd party thing. We'll see.

That's hysterical. I'm thinking of offering an all you can drink bar to go along with this. I'll provide everything except the alcohol.
