Tips for Having the Ultimate Sport Fan Weekend

   Football season is finally here. For fans in Middle Tennessee, there’s no better excuse to rally friends, fire up the grill, and make a weekend out of the season kickoff. Whether you’re cheering for your favorite college team or catching the pros on Sunday, here are some tips for creating the ultimate sports fan weekend.

Start with the Tailgate: Game Day Begins Long Before Kickoff. A great tailgate sets the tone for the weekend:

• Plan your menu: Grilled burgers, wings, and crowd-pleasing dips are classics. Add a signature cocktail or mocktail for a personal touch.

• Gear up: Jerseys, hats, and team colors are a must. Don’t forget to bring tents, chairs, and coolers for added comfort.

• Entertainment: Bring a portable speaker for music, or set up cornhole and other games to keep the energy up before kickoff.


Create the Ultimate Watch Party at Home: Not heading to the stadium? Your Regent Home makes the perfect setting for an at-home watch party. Open floor plans provide ample space for guests, while modern kitchens make it easy to prepare snacks without missing a play. Big-screen TVs and surround sound turn your living room into a front-row experience.

Make It a Weekend Event: Stretch the fun beyond Saturday or Sunday. Plan activities around the big game to keep the sports spirit alive:

• Friday night: Host a casual team-themed dinner or jersey swap with friends.

• Saturday: Cheer on college football or enjoy local high school games.

• Sunday: Keep the momentum going with a pro football watch party and game-day brunch.


Don’t Forget the Details: The little things can elevate your football weekend from good to unforgettable. Decorate with team banners or themed tableware. Prep a cozy outdoor space for fall evenings with a fire pit and string lights. And make cleanup simple with grab-and-go snacks and recyclable plates and cups.
