The Ultimate LSU Tailgate At Home Checklist

The 2020 LSU football season will look quite different for us here in Baton Rouge. Like most things in 2020… we’ll be hosting our tailgates at home this fall. But as someone who just came off hosting a backyard wedding, I think I’m fully prepared to take on home tailgates! So today, I’ve made the Ultimate LSU Tailgating At Home Checklist to inspire you to still celebrate our Tigers in a BIG way — and hopefully help you remember the little things when planning a party at home.

I’ve partnered with Party Time in Baton Rouge, who’s helped us keep the party goin’ all year, and they’re not letting up for football season. Their aisles and website are full of football-themed party supplies from decor and accessories to balloons and tableware — and so much more.
