ASU Football games are always a good time and tailgating is never a bad idea. Since we have the METRO light rail available to drop us off right in front of Sun Devil Stadium, many people prefer RailGating!
Talk about convenience… Our Railgating parties are in the Campus Corner parking lot. All you have to do is get yourself to our lot and anything you need will be right there. Campus corner sells soda, beer, coffee, snacks and… just about anything you would ever need for the ultimate tailgate party!! We even have coolers that you can use. This is a semi-private event. We set up at 712 S College in the Campus Corner parking lot with our good friends from Smokin’ Aces BBQ! Come enjoy some good food and drink and a lot of fun with friends. Contact Nick Bastian or Bill Risser for complete parking and event details.
Yes, RailGating is here and it is becoming an art form. There is no right or wrong way to railgate, the idea is to just have fun. There will be people that join existing tailgaters, people will use one of the FREE park and Ride lots and then stop at restaurants and bars along the line and near Sun Devil Stadium.
The next home ASU football game is Saturday November 21st against the team from down south. Game time is 1:30pm. Please wear GOLD and please feel free to join us before and during the game for some Sun Devil fun! We have been looking forward to this game all year long and it will be our biggest RailGating party by far!
The crew from Tempe Leadership will be joining us for the Duel in the Desert. Yep, it’s going to be a LOT of fun!
Just fyi: If you are going to park in our lot, we will need to know you are coming. Parking spaces are very limited for this game as the crowds will be the largest of the year. Other parking is available in the area and the light rail trains drop you off just north of our party.
While the “traditional” tailgate can’t be beat, it might be easier for you to ride the light rail to Sun Devil Stadium and join us for some Sun Devil fun on College Avenue!
Seriously, you should stop by and have a taste of some of the GREAT stuff we are cooking up!
Of course, riding the METRO is about the easiest way to get to Sun Devil Stadium. For anyone coming to the game, we would love for you to join us in our pre and post game fun. If taking METRO, just take College Street South from the Sun Devil Station until you get to 7th Street and head west to the first vacant lot and walk south to our party!
If you don’t want to fight the game day traffic at all, use our Uber Code to get you to and from the light rail stations…
Devils on College:
We are on the same block as the Devils on College events, as well. Bring the family and friends and check out all of the excitement happening on College Avenue.
Devils on College takes place on College Avenue and the College Avenue Commons plaza. The event will feature music and live artists, merchandise street sale, athlete meet-n-greets, food and drinks, and tailgate games.
Make sure you follow Rail Life and Nick Bastian on Twitter and watch the hashtags of #RailLife and #RailGating #DevilsOnCollege and #GoDevils for the game day scoop. People are encouraged to share their experiences with us in the “official Flickr RailGating group” by taking photos of your Sun Devil pride. I’ll also post some of our pics in my “Sun Devils Fans at ASU” page on Pinterest.
