Fall marks the start of football season, which means it's time to head to the nearest tailgate, where fans come together to eat, drink, and socialize before the game begins.
Having graduated Wake Forest University in North Carolina last May, I went back to college to tailgate with my friends and cheer on the Demon Deacons.
Being a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), consistently one of the best football conferences in the US, we take football and our tailgates very seriously.

The shuttles tend to be super crowded.
