After a successful tailgate in Mobile, AL for Eagle Football's 2015 GoDaddy Bowl game appearance, Georgia Southern University's Alumni Association, Athletic Foundation and College of Business Administration have joined forces once again to host three tailgates for the 2016 season.
Georgia Southern University alumni and friends are invited to join Eagle Nation for a True Blue Tailgate while football is on the road at Georgia Tech, Ole Miss and Georgia State. Eagle Fans will not want to miss some of the best food these areas have to offer, tailgate locations within walking distance to the stadiums and opportunities for Eagle merriment while reminiscing with fellow fans.
On Saturday, October 15, the Eagles take on Georgia Tech at one of the oldest collegiate stadiums . Catered by Smoke Ring, a local alumni-owned restaurant, Georgia Southern's True Blue Tailgate will be hosted on Tech's campus at the Tech Green. For only $35, each ticket includes a plated meal and four drink tickets. The deadline to register for the True Blue Tailgate at Georgia Tech is Friday, October 7.
Eagle Nation will then head to Ole Miss for an experience that the New York Times calls one of the most raucous and distinctive tailgating parties in the country. For $35 a ticket, renowned chef Elizabeth Heiskell will cater the True Blue Tailgate at Ole Miss on November 5, just steps from the infamous Grove. Guests will also receive four drink tickets. The deadline to purchase tickets is Friday, October 28, 2016.
Finishing the away game schedule, the Eagles will face the Panthers in Atlanta on Saturday, November 19 in hopes to reclaim our rivalry title. The Smoke Ring will join Eagle Nation once again for the True Blue Tailgate at Georgia State in the Marshalling Yard Lot off of Ivan Allen Jr. Boulevard.
