So driving your ute or car, onto one of the Mt Smart backfields (or surrounding streets), firing up the BBQ and having a few beers?
Sounds like fun to me. What other name would you call it if not a 'tailgate party'?
Is one benefit of playing out of a suburban type stadium like in Penrose, rather than a downtown CBDish ground like Sky with limited parking.
It's actually something the South Africans do well also I noticed when travelling there, and going to a few big rugby games. The pre game braais start hours before kick off. Then post match at Kings Park in Durban on the surrounding rugby grounds they had temporary bars, music stages, folks mingling around their bakkies & cars with beers in the open boot etc. Might have been a way to also keep lots of drunken fans safe as well, with security staff galore, and the whole area surrounded with high fencing, topped with razor wire!
