Tailgating Policy:
OVERVIEW
Tailgating is an established tradition at our football games and is permitted on campus in parking lots and green spaces in and around the Brown Gymnasium. Please follow all guidelines related to food/grilling, clean up, and risk management policies. For the purpose of this policy, consumption of alcohol is governed by procedures described in this section of the policy.
RESPECTFUL ENVIRONMENT Tailgating is a lively and family-friendly environment. While we want you to have an exciting experience, we ask that you be respectful of those surrounding you, being mindful of your choice of language and activity. Groups are personally responsible for making sure their guests act appropriately. Individuals are expected to conduct themselves in a manner respectful of the nature and character of the university. Persons acting in a disruptive, disrespectful or disorderly manner may be asked to leave the premises or be subject to citation. Students may also be charged with a violation of the Student Code of Conduct. We wish for the tailgating experience to be enjoyed by all. ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION In accordance with the Reinhardt University Alcohol Policy, participants in tailgating parties are expected to follow all relevant State laws and Reinhardt’s Alcohol Use Policy, including not serving alcohol to anyone under 21 years of age, not giving alcoholic beverages to any obviously intoxicated person, and not driving while intoxicated. Consumption of alcohol outside designated areas and/or time periods constitutes a violation of the Reinhardt University tailgating policy. Student violators are subject to conduct proceedings under the Reinhardt University Code of Conduct, and students and others are subject to prosecution under the ordinances of the City of Waleska and Cherokee County, and the laws of the State of Georgia [See Georgia Code O.C.G.A. §3-3-2.1 2016]. Any participant who consumes alcoholic beverages at such events must be able to produce a valid driver’s license or other photo ID that reflects the person’s age upon request. Alcohol will be permitted in the tailgating area only. Groups are responsible for making sure only those who are 21 years of age or older consume alcohol. All beverages, including alcohol, must be in plastic or insulated cups. “Cozies” or insulated coolers holding cans or bottles of beverages are not permitted. PROHIBITED USES- Kegs and other common containers are not allowed at any time.
- Glass containers are not allowed except to hold alcohol in its original bottled package in your cooler or closed container.
- Drinking games (including but not limited to beer pong), and the use of devices intended to accelerate the consumption of alcohol (including but not limited to funnels or beer bongs) are prohibited.
- Consumption of alcoholic beverages on any other part of the campus not designated as a Tailgating Area or on public streets that run through or are adjacent to the campus is prohibited.
FOOTBALL TAILGATING LOCATIONS
Reinhardt University invites and encourages our fans to enjoy a great community tailgate atmosphere prior to each Eagles home intercollegiate football game. Community Tailgating for faculty, staff, alumni, and community members is permitted on days of home football games and is for the exclusive use of those fans attending the games. The University will permit tailgating activities in designated areas, intended to give football fans the opportunity to arrive early, park, and have their own food and beverages (including alcoholic beverages if they wish) prior to each game. Tailgating in designated parking spaces, which limit other spaces from being occupied by a vehicle, is not permitted. Tailgating in any traffic lanes or pedestrian pathways is not permitted. Community Tailgating opens for individuals to enter the Athletic Complex three (3) hours prior to kick-off on game day and closes three (3) hours after the game.
General Guidelines that Apply to All Tailgating:
CLEAN-UP
- Please keep Reinhardt beautiful by placing all trash and recycling in the proper bins located throughout the tailgate areas, and facilities for your convenience. All groups are responsible for making sure their assigned tailgating area is cleaned prior to departing for the game.
- All trash/recyclable items must be picked up and sorted into proper receptacles. This includes trash around your assigned area. Trash should be closed in bags or trash containers.
- Reinhardt University is a tobacco-free campus. The use of any tobacco product on campus is prohibited.
- All leftover food/beverages must be placed in proper containers and stored.
- All clean-up procedures must be completed before entering the stadium.
- Tailgating spaces not completely cleaned prior to departure from RU property could result in the loss of future tailgate privileges.
FOOD/GRILLING
Groups may bring their own picnic items and food to their tailgate area. Grilling is permitted, but all grills must be elevated. All fires must be contained within grills. Extinguish charcoal fires thoroughly with water before leaving them unattended. Please remove extinguished charcoal from campus for disposal. Do not dump charcoal on the ground or in dumpsters. Please be advised that grilling may be prohibited in a time of drought or extremely dry conditions. Should this be a consideration, proper announcements will be made on University websites and in the local media during the week preceding an affected game date. No food or drinks are to be taken inside the stadium. CONSUMPTION AND PREPARATION OF FOOD- No food may be sold without a proper University permit.
- Propane and charcoal grills are the only permissible sources of heat for cooking. Burned coals and/or residue from cooking may not be permitted to make contact with the paved surface of the parking lot. Hot coals must be completely extinguished with water prior to leaving the tailgating site.
- Open flame fires, including fire pits, are prohibited.
