The Smoking Musket Tailgate Menu: Riot Bowl in Ames

It’s the Riot Bowl game. A time-honored tradition where two fanbases known for throwing down meet in the parking lot for the competition that’s more important than the football game. As WVU fans and alumni, we pride ourselves on our partying prowess and tailgating is an area of particular expertise. However, tailgating is more than just drinking, you need to serve up good food to make sure you win over your guests.

As is tradition, we cook poultry when playing the Iowa State Cyclones because they use a cardinal as their mascot, which has absolutely nothing to do with a cyclone.
