Alabama Tailgating Tradition

The reasons that the strict guidelines and equipment and service companies have emerged is because of the incredible passion that exists for celebrating the many aspects of gamedays in T-Town. Along with the joy of Football Saturdays at Bama gamedays, the Southern cultures are all about great food such as the famed Dreamland Bar-B-Que and much more that's shared with family and friends. Popular tailgating spots on the Alabama campus include the Quad and other areas of the scenic campus.  Prior to the start of the 2016 football season, the University opened a new tailgating area that would be conducive for families.  That area is located at the corner of Hackberry Lane and Campus Drive.  Along with inflatable play areas for the children, the new family area is an alcohol-free zone.

The gameday experience is further enhanced by two pregame activities that Crimson Tide fans enjoy.   The Elephant Stomp features the University's Million Dollar Band playing a series of spirit inducing songs on the steps of the Gorgas Library.  The Walk of Champions takes place a couple of hours before the game when the team is dropped off on the north side of the stadium at University Boulevard.  The coaching staff and players walk through a cheering throng of Bama supporters as the walk to the stadium.

With the growing abundance of Crimson fans wanting to experience a gameday in Tuscaloosa, more and more guidelines are being implemented to ensure that fans enjoy a positive and safe experience.  Two specific restrictions at the Quad include the use of electrical cooking equipment or gas-powered generators.
