24 hour Tailgate in The Rat's Mouth for FAU vs. FIU - 11/15/12
What do most students do before a football game? That’s simple… they tailgate.
But FAU is taking tailgating to the next level. On November 15th at 8pm through November 16th at 8pm FAU will be hosting the first ever 24 hour tailgate before our biggest football game of the year vs. FIU.
Not only will students be able to “Party in the Rat’s Mouth” for 24 hours but also they will be able to raise money for the Red Cross’s hurricane Sandy relief.
Organizations will also have the opportunity to participate …

If so, what kind of turnout during the "off hours" are they expecting?

My vision for this…big tailgate party starting at 8pm Thursday, people partying and grillin and going till 2/3am. Some folks leave others camp out and sleep in the rats nest. Wake up at noon and start all over again.
I tried to do something like this for the CUSA Championship game in Orlando back in 2005 for a noon kickoff. We went out the night before, home at 5am, to the tailgate at 6am and I was falling asleep in the stadium in the second half. It's not easy!

Note to the Administration - This will leave a HUGE mess and of course some people will get out of control…..but plenty of other universities allow this and it is not new or earth shattering at all. Let them have fun, clean up, and then think about opening up tailgating for the rest of us. This is a good thing.
FAU - We got Bowls!

Yea thats what many do on most games days I just am not going to camp in the rats mouth if i do not have to.duder said
Come on guys this are college kids, 24 hrs and a football is totally doable. If it was me, I'd probably set up, party thursday night till the magic hour (2-3am), then crash for a couple hours, wake up in the morning and then start the tailgating over again all day until kickoff.

Can you just go out there or do you have pay or register before hand
Think only student organizations have to register.
