Pitt Tailgate Van

Hail To Pitt

You can hear the Pitt Tailgate Van coming from afar. Nothing else needs to be said because this video says it all. H2P

The van has been painted. It actually went much smoother than I could have ever imagined. We used regular Rustoleum paint and it covered very well after one coat. Which is a good thing because it also took a long time to dry and we would have never had enough...

Tires, Brakes and Spea...

The van is coming along well. It is going to be tight but if all goes as planned we will be on the road this weekend. The van has new tires and all new brakes so as long as the engine holds up, we should be able to move and more importantly, stop. So...

Van Update – Jul...

Good news for you all. The van will be ready for this season, I repeat it will be ready. We are currently getting the funding necessary to get the van ready for the season. We just need to do a few mechanical updates and the van will be road ready. From...

Please Make it Stop!

It has not been the best of seasons that is for sure. Tino is god awful, our attendance is horrible, we lost to the hated WVU, and we have had more injuries than the number of beers we consumed at the van all year (ok, maybe that is a stretch). However, with all of that we are still bowl eligible. So let’s all get together one last time before the holidays and support our Pittsburgh Panthers. This one is for the seniors...
Turn it Blue!

First place in the Big East is on the line! It is time for this team to turn it around and they need our support. That means we need to be in the parking lot for 7 hours before the game starts! No, that is not how that works? Well that is how we roll and we hope that you will join us. We have some fantastic food planned and we will be getting a keg of beer (mmmmmmm…..beer….). We hope that this tailgate can...
Going Gold

We are getting ready for the UCONN tailgate this Wednesday. Since it is a Wednesday night game and the team is awful, nobody wants to go. That means parking passes for Gold Lot 1 are cheap and we are going to party like bosses! Join us as the van makes it’s first appearance in the gold lots, it should be interesting to say the least. Where: Heniz Field – Gold Lot 1 Opponent: University of Connecticut Tailgate...
Homecoming Weekend

Well there is not much to say following that beating by Rutgers, other than it is Homecoming weekend! I have given up on the hopes of the team this year but I have not lost hope in the program. It is the first year with players that dont fit the system. So with that said let’s have a fantastic time in the parking lot because who knows what the game is going to be like. Join us for some more 90s music with a little...
Partyin’ Like It̵...

Well the last one was a doozie. So we are going to take this one back to a time when many of us couldn’t even drink, yes that is right we are going to party like it is 1995 all over again. Make sure to bring your original Game Boy and your POGS, you will be denied entry without one of the two. Please join us: Where: Heniz Field (Not sure where we are parking yet) Opponent: University of South Florida Tailgate Start:...
When You Think You’ve...

Notre Dame weekend is upon us yet again and how are we gonna celebrate? We’re throwing a tailgate of course!! For those of you that attended last year’s Miami or 2009′s Notre Dame festivities, you probably already know that it was the best time you’ve ever had tailgating for a Pitt game. (If you disagree, you’re uninvited) Jeffrey Rhoades, Shawn Kerestus and Herbie Pallotta may not be able to do...
Shrimpin’ Ain’t...

Well it is week 2 of the college football season. That means that Pitt is playing Maine. Is anybody really excited about this game? We are playing Maine and our high octane offense looked like the same old offense last week. Perhaps things will change this week. In honor of Maine we will be hosting our Shrimpin’ Ain’t Easy tailgate (yes Maine is more known for lobster but they have shrimp too). Join us for...
The First One

Well, it appears that the time has finally come. After two long years the van will finally make the first trip to the North Shore. We welcome you to join us in celebrating this occasion by coming to our Tailgate for the Pitt vs. Buffalo game. The details are: Where: Heniz Field (We plan to park here: http://g.co/maps/6m3c) Opponent: Buffalo Tailgate Start: 12:00pm Kickoff: 6:00pm Food: Traditional Cookout (Hamburgers,...
