The Shotgun/Throwdown: West Virginia has the best tailgates in the Big 12

Welcome, By-Godders, to The Shotgun/Throwdown, WVU’s best place for sports links, information, sophomoric humor, and daily distractions.

It will probably come as a surprise to absolutely nobody, but West Virginia has been ranked the best tailgate school in Big 12 Conference. “Bookies” recently ranked the top football gameday experiences in the Big 12 and WVU received a perfect 10 out of 10 score in tailgating.

West Virginia had the fifth-best overall pregame experience in the conference. WVU had one of the lower “Entertainment Around Stadium” scores, which is probably due to Milan Puskar Stadium’s distance from High Street and the downtown area, but the school also had one of the higher “Family Sentiment” scores with a seven out of 10.
