Where the real pregame happens. Bars, lots, and traditions that define South Carolina Gamecocks Saturdays.

South Carolina tailgating is energetic and welcoming—Gamecock pride with grills, games, and garnet everywhere across campus lots and nearby areas.

Prime Spots: Greek Village lots, BullStreet area, and surrounding campus parking—free/first-come. Many fans set up early with tents and RVs.
Reserved Options: Book premium via REVELxp (official partner) for tents, catering, electricity in designated zones.
Nearby Bars for Pre/Post-Game: Five Points (Five Points area)—The Salty Nut (classic dive), Hunter-Gatherer Brewery, or The War Mouth for watch parties/drinks. Walk or shuttle from tailgate areas.
PRO TIP
Stake out your tailgate spot 3 hours before kickoff — the best lots fill fast.
