    Buffalo wins Forbes top Tailgating spot



    Picking the top 10 NFL tailgating scenes is hard. Even if you’re in just one small section of a huge parking lot where the guys cook ribs like pros, your tailgating experience might combine enough fun and flavor to impress even the Commissioner of Tailgating, Joe Cahn.

    In 1996, Cahn sold his New Orleans cooking school, bought a motor home, and went tailgating at every stadium in the NFL that season. He has since been to 500 NFL tailgates and logged 500,000 miles.

    “Tailgating is the only gathering place of a community of its kind, like walking through thousands of backyards. It’s where the happy people are,” Cahn says. “Tailgating creates the perfect American neighborhood.” Having spent 13 NFL seasons on the road, Commissioner Cahn knows firsthand what’s necessary to create a fantastic tailgating scene.
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

                I just read that article and missed the part where it said Buffalo won? It actually doesn't even mention Buffalo at all! The slideshow is cool though.

                  It's in alphabetical order.. DOH!

                      We're just first alphabetically, but wasn't there a Sports Illustrated contest to annoint best pro and college tailgates in 2003 or so? If I remember right, Penn State and LSU were the final two college teams and Buffalo and Kansas City were the final two pro settings.
