Reading the website, I don't think they are marketing these to individual fans to haul back and forth to games. They appear to be marketing to universities and other organizations. I think the idea is to provide universities with ways to provide luxury suites for tailgating outside the stadium much the same way boxes and suits are provided inside the stadium.


Yep -- Like the "Tailgate Guys" which started at Auburn.

You'd have to make a custom heavy-duty traiiler for it, but they weigh less than 6,000 lbs. empty. Even somewhat loaded down with gear, food, and beer, it would still be easily portable with a 3/4 ton diesel truck. Just leave it hooked to the truck and have a small set of steps to get up into it. With some of the redneck engineering that I've seen in the south, it's definitely within the realm of possibility.



or you can just build a custom tailgate trailer that can be pulled with just about anything like a guy I know did. has a platform on top and a tv mount inside, even was going to have a toilet installed int eh front with an RV tank.

I could think of several things you could do to make that awesome. You could have a fold up platform that just folds flush with the side that you could walk up onto to get to the same height as the storage unit there for one.
