UD Alumni Tailgate at Villanova

Post by Info Hound »

If you are going to the game on the Main Line, you can sign up here:

https://ud.alumniq.com/index.cfm/events ... entId/8912

I received word today that signups must be made this week, before Friday. If there are any insufficient signups, the event may be cancelled.

It will be a fun way to gather in our own space, prior to completing a 10-1 season and getting the Battle of the Blue Trophy, forever!

Go Hens!

$8 drink tickets. Creative way to get around the ban on the selling of alcohol (technically, you are not purchasing the drinks IN the parking lot). :D

Might not be a bad way to gather with other Hens fans...especially since they are reserving some free parking spaces for the party. Brunch included.
Football:

That's all right 'cause my body's in motion
It's supposed to look like a fit or a convulsion
Anyone can play this game
No two people will do it the same
Ya got it down when ya appear to be in pain

I believe that today, Sunday, is the last day to sign up for this event.

Update:

The ability to sign up for the tailgate at Villanova will remain open through Friday. About 100 signups so far.

This is a very convenient way to have fun at a very fan unfriendly location.

Let's go 10-1 and have a final pleasant memory from the Main Line.

Get the "Battle of the Blue Trophy", then smash it with a sledge hammer on social media.

I'd pay $100 to have a whack at it for real... and then throw the carcass over the Del. Mem. Br.

Disguise it as a tailgating Hens fan and the 'Nova clergy will do the rest.

Your best bet is the:

I-1 Ithan Garage (Primary Student
& Visitor Lot – Daily Fee Parking)

which is shown in the VU parking map which is embedded in the link in the original post in this thread. Villanova does not allow tailgating for visitors. Last time up there, we ate in the car in that garage.

Here is a direct link to that map:

A win will be sweet, but so will be never going back to that dump.

Thank you Info Hound. We did see the map and noticed one of the lots was no tailgating. Was hoping someone had some insights not found on the website. And yes...a win would be fantastic!
