The final home game is Tuesday evening November 18. Our family has season tickets and has gone to all of the Saturday games. I'd like to go to this game if possible. What's the tailgate scene like on a late season game in mid November midweek? Does anyone tailgate at all outdoors?

Dennis Gillette hosts his tailgate before these late-season games.

I exchanged texts with Dennis yesterday, and he did not have a tailgate for the UB game and he hasn't yet decided about NIU. Apparently, in addition to his farming in Albany he has another job now that makes it difficult for him to get back in time to setup a tailgate for weekday games. I think that this is a new development this year, because I remember midweek game tailgates that he put on in previous years. I'll try to remember to find out before the NIU game if the tailgate is on and then post the answer here.

When I drove past, it looked like a number of tailgates were set up in TailGreat Park for the Buffalo game. If you're a Bobcat Club member, you can go to the Hospitality Village set up in the Walter Fieldhouse. With weather like we had Wednesday, that is a very nice option.

If the weather is nice, tailgating will be happening with the very-recently-introduced-to-weeknight-maction girlfriend after an afternoon of uptown food and drink. Anyone know when football parking opens on weeknight gamedays?

From the latest Bobcat Club e-mail:
Gameday Parking
Wednesday, November 5th vs. Buffalo at 8:00pm
FOOTBALL PARKING LOTS OPEN AT 4:00pm.
*Our midweek games (November 5th & 18th) require us to share parking lots with Ohio University employees until 5:00pm or later. Please be aware that parking in some lots may be limited due to this circumstance. Also, please note that parking spaces with an Ohio Bobcat Club permit cannot be guaranteed on these dates.
