We have a tailgate culture at KU. Only difference between KU and Alabama is at Alabama, fans leave the tailgate to go watch the game at kick-off and don't return until the game is over.
Were you guys aware of how awesome KU's tailgate culture is? On par with Alabama, and most certainly better than KSU I'm guessing.
Last year I went to Lawrence for a FB game with a few KU buds of mine, we stopped at Wendy's and got cheeseburgers, drove to some run down house, parked in their front lawn, and ate our Wendy's there. It was embarrassing. It looked like everyone around us did something similar.
So, yeah, great tailgate culture there.
