Top 5 Tailgating Essentials to Kick Off the Season

The air is fresh and crisp, leaves are starting to fall… which can only mean that football season is underway! Football is one of America’s favorite sports and it’s a pretty big deal. To get the full football fan experience, tailgating is a must. Tailgating allows fans to connect with one another and share their love of the great American sport over yummy food, great tunes, and good times! 

To get the best tailgating experience, there are a few tailgating essentials that fans swear by. These essentials are all portable, functional, and also look great too! You need food accommodations, gear for cooking, shelter, portable seating, and of course some good music to set the mood and hype up fans before the big game (and sometimes after the game too!).  

To kick off tailgating season and be the BEST tailgating party host in the parking lot, shop for these five tailgating essentials: 

Having a portable power station while tailgating can be a real life saver when you need to power up your griddle, lights, or charge your devices. Plus, it's an eco-friendly way to enjoy your watching your favorite team without the noise or fumes of a generator. 

Kick back and relax in a folding chair, perfect for tailgating or any outdoor event. It's the ultimate portable seat for comfort and convenience, making it easy to enjoy every moment.

Take this cheerful blue canopy tent to your next tailgating party and enjoy "Host with the Most" status! This canopy not only looks great but is ultra-handy to have on hand to protect fans from outdoor elements such as sun, wind, and rain. Easy to transport, the canopy sets up in just minutes and comes with a Ford wheeled carry bag.

Rock the parking lot at the tailgate party with a booming Bluetooth wireless speaker! This portable karaoke machine (yes, it is a speaker and a karaoke machine) lights up and has a 4.3-inch screen. It also comes with a microphone to rally up the crowd and show support for your favorite football team!
