How to Survive Tailgating Like A Pro

It might be a tad bit dramatic to call going outside a near death experience, but hey, we all have our own limits. Tailgating is like the fall’s version of the Fourth of July, except that it happens every weekend. And instead of feigned patriotism, your team pride is totally authentic and probably overbearing to your girlfriend. Make your weekends Super Bowl ring-level successful with the following.

Calling all bros and their dads: This is the ultimate tailgating/life accessory. Everything is included, all you need to add is you (a Bro) and some beer, and some more bros.

This is great if you’ve got a truck or a van (no judgment here) to go to convert into a giant sofa or bed, for when chugging Budweiser starts to tire you out. It fits right in and is rated as "super comfy." It’ll be like you never left your bed.

The second best thing about this product is that it sounds like a hip-hop dad duo. The first best thing is that when it’s 90 degrees outside, it lets you turn your CamelBak into a water spritzer so you don’t pass out from heat exhaustion.

There are few places on earth where a fanny pack of any sort can be acceptable. Luckily, American football culture exists. This one, made by JammyPack, is not only a fanny pack but a portable speaker as well, upgrading both its wearability and its functionality. And with its American flag print you’ll fit right in, and be able to blast your teams fight song on merciless repeat.

Pro: Camo can be very “in”. Con: Completely unacceptable attire in most places. Pro: You can carry six beers on your waist while grilling out. Pro/Con: You can tweet a photo of yourself wearing it to me and I will laugh (@ojagl4).

Keep your food hot or cold all day with a vacuum crock. It’s stainless steel and it will last forever just like the food inside of it.

This revolutionizes grilling out with its ultra portability, and for the price, anyone can become a spontaneous outdoor griller. It’s perfect for small setups and people who don’t want to lug around 100 pounds of metal to make a hot dog. This will even impress Steve, who wears an apron that says “Grill Master.”

Football is the ultimate showcase for macho-ness. So be fully prepared and bring out all your meat. Cook your edible shit in this and outdo everyone, at least in this department. (Sorry man, can't help you anywhere else.)

This light is pretty bright, and it comes with adjustable settings as a well as a magnet attachment so that it can stick to your car. It recharges quickly and will keep everything well lit when you’re chugging beers with Craig from three Toyotas down.

Start a fire anywhere with these burner bags. Whether it's raining, windy, hell, even if it’s snowing, beat out mother nature’s unforgiving and punishing wrath with these.

A tailgating survival guide wouldn’t be complete without an actual medical kit. Patch up the bloody scrapes from eating it on the pavement when you tried to play catch in the parking lot.  This one is small and includes just about everything you could need, short of a doctor.

The name of this product sounds like the random words pulled out of a children's book. But the use of this product means that once the unforgiving colder months descend, you can keep all your liquids warm, and easily pourable.
