Fall is rapidly approaching, meaning Penn State Football and tailgating are quickly returning to Happy Valley.
It’s arguably the most anticipated time of the year in the region as fans flock to Beaver Stadium for seven weekends a year.
This year, there’s even more to be excited about as a brand new era of Penn State Football kicks off under new head coach Bill O’Brien.
And for the second straight season, there has been a change to the team’s iconic football jerseys. This time, with player’s names featured on the back of their jerseys along with a blue ribbon to promote child sexual abuse awareness.
The names on the jerseys are a tribute to the players’ loyalty for the decision to stay with the program in the midst of troubling times.
This will be a fun season, as Penn State fans can witness the brand new offense that Bill O’Brien will be calling on game day. It’s also a chance to see some of the very talented underclassman that now have the chance to prove themselves.
While the football program has undergone some significant changes, one thing that will always stay the same is the way Penn State fans tailgate.
It’s a rite of passage to arrive at Beaver Stadium as the sun rises and leave the parking lot as the sun begins to set. It’s a day filled with the five Fs: family, fun, friends, food and football.
Whether you have an RV loaded up with the finest tailgating equipment and food, or a small car with a few lawn chairs and some cold cuts, it doesn't really matter. Just hanging out with over 100,000 of your closest Penn State friends is reason enough to tailgate.
But the fun doesn’t have to begin and end a Saturday. From Friday to Sunday there’s plenty of ways to enjoy a Penn State Football weekend.
