Tailgating

There's nothing better than hanging out with your friends, playing games, and eating food before watching your favorite team play. No matter if you're cheering for the home team, the away team, or you're just there to have a good time, DX Offers Mall has everything you need for a great tailgating party for less.

What should I bring to a tailgating party?

You don't need to have a tailgate in order to throw a tailgate party. However, if your vehicle has a trunk, it might be a good idea to bring some folding tables for space to lay out the food and snacks. Folding chairs are also a must, so people can sit down and relax. If the weather is going to be hot, don't forget a pop-up canopy. Canopies and tents can help prevent sunburns or food spoiling from sitting out in the sun. Portable speakers also make it possible to listen to music or the pre-game show before the game.

Once you've got your setup, you can start thinking about the food. A good cooler is a must to keep your burgers, brats, and drinks cold. Portable grills can cook up your food, so don't forget to bring the tongs, flippers, and oven mitts. Some popular sides include chips, crackers, cheeses, salads, and grilled vegetables. If you can, it's also a good idea to bring disposable silverware, plates, cups, and napkins, so you can easily throw everything out before going into the game. If you're bringing reusable items, you can store them in garbage bags when you're done so they don't get the inside of your car dirty.

What games are good for playing during a tailgate?

Any game that you like playing with other people is a good game to bring to a tailgate. If you're not sure what games you can play, check out our outdoor games category for some ideas. Popular choices include cornhole, horseshoes, ladderball, washer toss, and catch. You can also find sets that include several of these fun games in one easy to transport set.

Once you've got your setup, the food, and games figured out, head over to our fan gear shop so you can dress for the occasion. You'll be able to choose from T-shirts, sweatshirts, ladies tees, and tanks all from your favorite teams.
