I live in a small football town. My town takes football seriously. During every home game, we tailgate outside of the arena from seven in the morning until the game starts. Tailgating gets intense. Everyone is partying and eating all morning until the game begins. They tailgate no matter what the weather is like. During the winter, we’ve tailgated with the worst snowstorms. Nothing stops our football fever. Some people tailgate in the winter without the proper equipment, which I find ridiculous. My friends and I do it the right way. We rent a few gas space heaters and set them up outside during our tailgates. We place them around the perimeter of our tailgating area. It keeps us so warm during the games. I see other people shivering and turning red from the cold, but our group is always nice and comfortable. These heaters also keep us safe. It gets so cold in our town that it can become dangerous to be outside in such conditions. People still come to the tailgates in bad weather without proper heating and they usually fall sick from it. My friends and I don’t like to take the chance. Instead, we invest money in the heaters and keep ourselves comfortable. Without the heaters, I don’t think I could enjoy these games as much as I do. I probably wouldn’t be as excited to attend the tailgates in the winter if we didn’t have them. Luckily, we have this luxury and I am able to enjoy the tailgates and the football games all winter long!
