Tailgating for Big10s

[pointtheway]

U of I Big10 Wrestling site says:

Tailgating - Tailgating activities (including the consumption of alcohol) are prohibited in University parking lots.

What's up with that? They allow 70000+ football fans to tailgate for many hours before the home games, but don't allow wrestling fans to do the same for a couple hours between sessions?

My guess is it has to do with not wanting to pay for police/security/portapotties/cleanup.

The Vine just down the hill. About a 5-7 min walk depending on crosswalk. Or park on private land next to carver

If you need it that bad don't go.

We won't be using our parking pass, and are planning to find a private spot to park. A shoulder to shoulder Vine, a Cambus to downtown, and trying to drive somewhere all seem like bad options.

So, where do we need to park to tailgate?

I wont tell if you don't tell if you finish off a beer or two listening to tunes in the parking lot before you walk up. Doubt its will be a big deal, esp if you are not the driver. However pitching a tent and throwing a grill out might get noticed.
