Best Beer Pong Table Ever?

Conduct a search on youtube for "Best Beer Pong Table Ever," and you will end up with over 38,000 results. It seems that most beer pong table creators out there ultimately believe that their “work of art” is numero uno. Well, step aside because I think we may have found one that truly has earned the right to be in the conversation for "Best Beer Pong Table Ever!" This table features a computer screen (I don't know what for either, but just roll with it.), red and blue themed LED lights, and a shiny acrylic (plexiglass) protective cover. The only thing you could add to it would be a DMX controller to make those LEDs run wild!

Duracell Powerpack Powers the Tailgate Party

Duracell Powerpack Tailgate Generator


The Duracell® Powerpack 600 provides a great source of power without breaking the bank or stealing tailgating storage. The system is a stand-alone source of portable power for AC and DC-powered electronics such as televisions, satellite systems, portable coolers, video game systems, fans, and other small appliances. It features a rugged design that boasts 600 watts of heavy duty AC power helping you operate various electronics during your tailgate. In addition, the Powerpack 600 holds enough juice to jump-start a car, and includes jumper cables to connect to your car battery. With its reverse-polarity protection, you can't damage your battery by hooking the cables up wrong. The Duracell® Powerpack 600 is not meant to replace a generator, but it does act great as a complement to one.

Tailgating 1300 Miles Away

This would definitely be the ultimate example of bringing the tailgate to you. These fans get an A+ for this performance, and all we can hope is that their neighbors aren't Alabama or PETA fans.

An Oversized Koozie for Kegs?

Keg Koozie / Keg InsulatorSummertime is almost here, and that means outdoor grillin’ and drinkin.’ However, when you involve a keg into your plans, it does add extra challenges. First off, you have to equip yourself with loads of ice to keep feeding your thirsty little tin friend. Also, if you have the keg sitting on dirt, it can equate to a muddy mess. The entire situation can be avoided with the new Keg Insulator Sock from Keg Works.

Simply grab a custom ice blanket from the freezer and slide it into the keg jacket (which is wrapped around your keg) to keep your keg good and cold. The keg jacket is made of heavy-duty neoprene to maintain the temperature for up to 24 hours and prevent condensation build up. Lightweight and collapsible, you can lay the jacket flat or roll it for storage.

The jacket is made up of heavy-duty ¼” thick insulated neoprene, and comes with one ice blanket. Fits standard 15.5 gallon U.S. Half Keg.

Unsupervised and Ready to Tailgate

LSU TUB Unsupervised Tailgate BusWhat originally started out as a group of friends going out, and having a good time, has turned into a tailgate phenomenon. This group of friends dubbed their nights out without their girlfriends as “Unsupervised,” which grew into not only a tailgating theme, but into a lifestyle. Originally, they were just a bunch of guys with a trailer and ice chest, but over time turned it into a website, softball team, flag football team, sand volleyball team, and of course, the crown jewel, “The Unsupervised Bus.” The tailgate crew has grown into one of the most well know tailgate groups on the LSU campus!
