Atmosphere
Titan’s fans bring a unique Nashville style of Tailgating to the NFL. The parking lots surrounding Nissan Stadium are full of crazed Titans fans enjoying cold beverages and southern barbecue. Fire up the smokers and join in the fun since you can’t go wrong with some refreshing cold brews and delicious barbecue.
The barbecue at a Titans tailgate is truly something special. Not only is it among the finest barbecue you’ll find anywhere throughout the country, but the fans also have a special tradition of serving different types of meat depending on the opponent. For example, when the Bills are in town you’ll encounter a ton of buffalo meat while the rival Colts conjure up steaks and the Dolphins arrival causes fans to bring out the catfish. Regardless of who is in town the delicious barbecue found at a Titans game is top notch and not something you would want to miss out on.
Another Titans tailgating tradition is the playing of a game called Sholf. Sholf is a combination of golf and shuffleboard and is a lot of fun to play. Titans fans take sholf seriously and even have tournaments that last throughout the season. Forget about your traditional tailgate games like ladder ball and corn hole and get ready to play some sholf when tailgating before a Titans game.
Finally, make sure to arrive early when attending a Titans tailgate since the lots open up five hours before kickoff ensuring you’ll have plenty of time to knock back a few beers, fill up on some of the tastiest barbecues around, and play a few games of sholf.
