■

PARKING POLICY All vehicles entering the tailgating area at Alabama State

University must have a reserved parking pass. No exceptions will be made.

Recreational vehicles (RVs), buses, trailers, box trucks and delivery trucks are

not allowed in unauthorized areas.

■

SETUP The number of designated tailgating spaces has been designed to

meet occupancy standards for the designated areas to avoid hazardous

overcrowding. All set-up materials are to be provided by tailgater. Tailgaters

■

FOOD AND BEVERAGES cannot be sold in tailgating areas. All food and

beverage sales must be made in the designated vendor area and properly

licensed by the University.

■

GRILLING is permitted in designated areas only. No cooking is allowed under

building entrances, patios, covered walks, awnings or tents. To avoid stains

to concrete surfaces, a dripping pan must be placed underneath grills/deep

fryers to catch grease. All res must be contained within grills. Extinguish

charcoal res thoroughly with water before leaving them unattended. Be

sure that charcoal from pits is cooled and taken with you to be disposed of

regulations which prohibit bringing alcoholic beverages into The ASU Stadium,

as well as bringing cups, cans, coolers, etc., into the stadium.

■

TENT GUIDELINES Tents may not be staked into the ground. Tailgaters

are to ensure that tents and canopies are anchored appropriately by utilizing

sandbags, weights, etc. Due to limited space, tents larger than 20’ x 20’ are
