LSU TAILGATES
LSU Tent Crawl
This is an opportunity to experience both of our amazing LSU Tailgates for one price. LSU is known for night games at Death Valley, which means you can literally tailgate for 12 hours starting at 7 AM! What better way to experience the full LSU experience then by doing the Tailgate Connect ™ Tent Crawl! Botj of our tailgates at LSU are amazing and unique and this will give you a chance for a one of a kind experience by sampling them all.
Start early at one of our tailgates for breakfast or an early exquisite cajun lunch, then head to our next tailgate for some midday revelry and drinking games with perhaps a shot at the funnel of death! Enjoy some delicous Abita beer and getting fired up for a pre game frenzy while being steps away from the stadium.
Geaux Tigers!
Damn Strong Tailgate
This well known LSU tailgate is the most authentic Bayou experience you will find on campus on a football Saturday. They have been running this show for over 20 years now. Set back in the trees, with a big kettle pot being stirred by a paddle, music playing, TVs going, you get the sense these are the superfans of the LSU Tigers. In fact, there is no game too early for this group to be up and running by 7 AM if need be for an 11 AM game.
The food varies from week to week, but be rest assured the amount of time and effort put into preparation is evident when you first taste what they are serving. Boudin, gumbo, homemade sausages and much more cajun faire. Ice cold beers, full bar and no alcoholic beverages are also offered to guests. The average crowd is approximately 50 + with all ages represented. For a night game at Death Valley, you may actually get 12 hours of tailgating in, hence the name “Damn Strong”. These are some of the nicest people you could meet in Baton Rouge!

Kocka Tailgating
Join KOCKA Tailgating for an unforgettable gameday experience in Baton Rouge. As one of LSU’s greatest tailgating groups, this bunch of devoted Tigers hosts about 80-100 guests per game. While it’s open to all ages, guests typically range from 21-50 years old. There’s plenty of shade with eight canopies and a copse of giant oak trees to cover most of the tailgate, as well as ample seating accommodations. Get ready to be served traditional Louisiana-style food from jambalaya and pastalaya to gumbo and chili. You’re welcome to BYOB, but your hosts will also provide ice chests for beer, a premade signature drink called KOCKAtion, and a whiskey bar setup for the bigger games.
Guests are welcome to start enjoying the party six hours before game time — and there’s no shortage of entertainment. While DJ BIG B is pumping up the crowd with live music, two TVs will be pumping out the football action. The fun continues with all the traditional tailgate games, including corn hole, beer pong, washers, jenga — and the famous 8 Man Funnel of Death (it’s not
as scary as it sounds: picture a funnel with 8 tubes where tailgaters compete to suck down beer the fastest!).Located on the Old Front Nine parking lot, this tailgate is hard to miss with its 40-foot flag pole bearing the American and LSU flags.
Known for the amount of heart and soul they put into each and every tailgate, it’s no wonder they’ve won best tailgate in the area three years running. Join KOCKA Tailgating for a game this year and see for yourself how tailgating is done down in Baton Rouge! #GeauxUglyEarly
