Atmosphere
If you want to tailgate at Indiana State and can only make it to one game, then make sure to attend the homecoming game. Homecoming is hands down the biggest event of the year at Indiana State making it the perfect time to tailgate and attend a Sycamores game.
Homecoming features several traditions you won’t get to take part in otherwise including The Walk and Tent City. The Walk is a pub crawl from downtown to the stadium and is an excellent way to party before the homecoming game. If you’re looking for something a bit more relaxed, don’t’ worry as Tent City is another good pre-game option before the homecoming game.
Finally, no matter what game you’re attending make sure to check out the Memorial Stadium Arch before the game. The arch is a must-see for anyone attending a Sycamores game, and it shows off the gorgeous architecture of the original Memorial Stadium.
You won’t want to miss tailgating before the homecoming game, which is one of the best experiences you’ll find in the Missouri Valley Football Conference.
