Possible tailgate idea.. any thoughts? Suggestions?

[OrngeJuiceJones]

I think me and my guys will be down for the Iona series weekend, it is also UT/Auburn basketball weekend 2/25 thru 2/27 so i know campus will be wild. Basketball game i think is going to be noon, and baseball at 3pm. My idea is to have a FREE tailgate starting around 11:30am and livestream the basketball game for everyone on my huge Roku TV while we all eat/drink and tailgate. Could be a really fun time, plus tickets for that basketball game are sold out and secondary market seats going for way over 125$ for upper decks. So it could give alot of people who don't get into the game, or don't have tickets an option to come over and have a great time with us and we all watch and tailgate together then go watch UT baseball. I have never done something like this before, but I think it could be awesome. Anyone else in town that weekend or plan to go?

WOW . . . I didn't know that the baseVOLS game was sold out, I was thinking about taking my two youngest, 14 and 11, to the game . . . this may be an option/excuse to go to Knoxvegas!!!!

Sounds like a great idea. Would enjoy meeting you and the volnation baseball diehards. Looks like a perfect weekend for basketball and baseball. I’d be up for tailgating—-lmk what I can bring if you go forward with it.

Could be a good time. Grill some stuff and have a few drinks. Unsure how parking would work with there being baseball and basketball same day but i will find out.

A few years back I think I recalled it was being streamed on MLB.TV, I’m not sure if it still is or not…….

Well basketball is now 4pm, baseball 3pm still. This idea won't work.

Where did you see that? If so, could be a even better tailgate idea...

This sounds like UT now gets the power of UT baseball. Just pitch perfect decision to move up baseball game so can enjoy both games.
