The Ultimate Tailgate Experience
A typical UT home football game Saturday. Too much traffic and too little parking. Is it really worth it? Now picture yourself waking up in a luxurious RV, well-rested from the comfortable lodging, already on campus and ready to bring out the tailgate fixings! And what fixings you will have. Gastronomic wizard Barbara Tenney will cater a fabulous tailgate meal for 10 on site. With this package, you will enjoy two nights use of a recreation vehicle from Tennessee RV, an RV football parking pass, and four tickets to the UT vs. University of Alabama football game on October 25, 2010. A tailgate to remember at one of the biggest games of the season! Courtesy of Tennessee RV Sales & Service and Five Oaks Development Group.
