#COLAweekend | Sept. 1-3, 2017

Gamecock fans can find any reason to tailgate – away games, home games, solar eclipses... You name it, we tailgate it.

Even though the season opener against N.C. State is at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, you can still find me – and thousands of other Gamecock fans – toasting to our team in various spots around Columbia this weekend.

Only 15 days, 9 hours, 54 minutes and 27 seconds till the home opener against Kentucky.

Happy tailgating,

-Anjali
