Aug. 26, 2011
With the first kickoff of the 2011 season a little more than a week away for the Commodores, the National Commodore Club has announced new tailgate opportunities at home and away games.
The NCC is offering a new pre game hospitality area before four home games, beginning Saturday, Sept. 3 against Elon. The area, located between Gate 2 and the Star Walk, will open at 3 p.m. Saturday and will have two high-definition televisions playing football action from around the country so you won’t miss a play.
Admission is $15 per person for National Commodore Club members and their guests. That price includes a buffet, unlimited soft drinks and beer. It’s perfect for Commodore fans that don’t want to set up their own tailgates and for those visiting from out of town.
R.S.V.P. by Monday, August 29, to Kendal Duncan, NCC development assistant, at kendal.duncan@vanderbilt.edu or by calling (615) 322-4114. Walk-ups are welcome as well.
