Please note that this is not a Yale-style tailgate.  Columbia doesn't have parking lots/fields around the stadium; this is, of course, still Manhattan.  This is a special picnic area with tables, and shared gas grills.  No charcoal grills are allowed.  YAAMNY will be providing some snacks, but feel free to bring your own meats/burgers/dogs to heat on the grills.

Outside alcohol is *not* permitted.
