THEY'VE ALL GOT IT NAILED HERE! COLD POTATO SALAD, FRIED CHICKEN AND MAYBE A SIDE OF COLESLAW OR A TEX-MEX SALAD WITH CORN, RED PEPPERS, BLACK BEANS, ETC. . . AND OH YES, DON'T FORGET THE BEER AND ICED TEA

Buy a tiny little 2-burner propane stove from a WalMart type store. They cost less than $30 last for years and are worth every penny - especially if the power goes out in a storm. They burn propane gas - in little cylinders you can also get at those kinds of stores. I've had mine for 10 years or more - great investment.
Then you will have 2 burners on which you can COOK food.
With this you can COOK - sloppy joes, chili dogs (a small charcoal grill is what, $5 or so? and instant light charcoal comes in small bags too) hot soup (for cold football games) and don't forget - hot tea, cocoa, and coffee. MMM! nothing like a plenty of hot drinks on a cold fall day.
Oh, and after the game/race/event, set up the tailgate once again and have another tailgate party for the next hour or two while all the traffic goes by you. Then you're free to leave without all that snarl to deal with.
Otherwise go to Subway and order one of those 12' long party subs.

You could pick up Subway or if you want warm food get KFC or Pizza. I tailgated for the first time last year, we picked up a small grill and had a feast. The grill was only like 20 bucks and we were able to do steak, brats, shrimp and then also took some cheeses and salads to accompany. The possibilities are endless. You could also make some yummy wraps with creamcheese, meats and lettuce and onion. Those travel really well.

buy a bread wreath in the deli. Cut it in half, bagel style. Spread pesto sauce on the bread and layer turkey breast, artichokes and provolone cheese. Put the top back on the bread and wrap the sandwich tight with plastic wrap. Put it in the fridge until it's time to load the car. Put the sandwich in the cooler along with a bowl of cool pasta salad, hummus and wheat thins and fresh fruit. At the tailgate, cut the sandwhich into 6 sections and serve! Should be a hit!

A couple of submarine sandwiches. A pasta or potato salad and a tossed green salad. Of course, the cold fried chicken mentioned would also be great! Offer icy cold beer or bottled iced tea to drink. Have fun! :o)

is the food going to be chilled? Or just cool?
A nice pasta salad might be nice - or this great orzo salad. IT is delicious and keeps well.

Then some chicken - you can do cold chicken which is always delicious. (easy option is shake n bake.) The following recipe for wings is ALWAYS a hit with my friends- and it taste good cold.

Simple chocolate chip cookies to finish off, or some brownies would be good as well. Good luck!

Sushi and sashimi!
