Propane, beanbags and several inflatable Otto the Oranges filled the Manley North Parking Lot on Saturday as Syracuse tailgates returned ahead of the Orange’s home opener against Rutgers. The first tailgate shuffled in the parking lot early on Saturday morning for the first time in nearly two years after COVID-19 forced the party to remain at home.

The famous North Manley Crew was back in action for its 21st season at Manley. The group has tailgated before SU football games since the 1980s and moved to the Manley lot in 1999.
