Tailgating Essentials for the Ultimate Pre-Game Party

As much as Americans love watching team sports like football, soccer, and baseball, we all know that the true action takes place off the field before the game begins. Tailgate parties have become a necessary experience whether you attend the game or not. It is what brings together fans, family, friends, and foes for food and fun.

According to the Advertising Specialty Institute, the average tailgater spends more than $500 per year on food alone and attends or hosts 6-10 tailgate parties per season. The parties last about 3-4 hours and include lots of food, drinks, and games. That’s a lot of money, time, and brand exposure!

To make sure your brand is the life of the tailgate party, offer these essential tailgating products to your employees and customers.

Game Set
Tailgate games are one of the main sources of entertainment during the party. A survey from Tailgate Institute shows that the favorite tailgate games are Beer Pong, Corn Hole, and Ring Toss. Add your logo or message to these game sets and you will be the center of attention.



Grilling Set
Perhaps more important than tailgate games is the food. Help out the cook with this 5-in-1 Folding BBQ Tool.

Cooler
Whether serving water, soft drinks or adult beverages, tailgaters will need something to keep their drinks cold. Give them some cool options from a Beverage Tub to a Table Top Cooler.


Drinkware
Having a cold drink is no good without something handy to put it in. Order custom cups, koozies, or tumblers that can be used for game days and beyond.



Folding Chair
Just because tailgating happens outside, doesn’t mean it can’t be comfortable. Hang out in this Cool Breeze Lounger.



What makes these products even better is that they can also be used for music concerts, outdoor festivals, block parties, and more. Check out our site for these items or contact The Icebox team to find out more ways to ensure your brand will not just be part of the crowd, but stand out too!
