Okay, do you know why people arrive to their tailgate only to realize that they forgot something? It's because they didn't have a checklist. Here's the deal.....you don't have jack shit if you don't have a checklist. The checklist below is based on the needs of a FansVan tailgate. We have a lot of room, so yeah....we take a lot of stuff with us. But that's why we're always prepared for just about anything. We've left a lot of blanks for write in items that change from game to game, such as perishable and non-perishable foods. Click here for a Printable Version of this checklist. It's a Microsoft Word document (.docx) that you can download and customize to you needs.
Notes about the Storage Tote and Game Bag: We keep a storage tote packed with all of the items on the Storage Tote list. We check it before every game and re-supply it as needed. Every member of our crew also takes along a game bag packed with dry clothes, extra layers for cold games etc. I put extra stuff in my bag like extra hats/gloves, just in case I need to help a brother out.
