Can Fans Bring Outside Food or Drinks into Ohio Stadium?

According to the official a-z guide of the Buckeyes, fans can’t bring any outside food or drinks into the stadium. Fans looking to eat can partake in the tailgating festivities in the parking lots before a game.

 

If you don’t want to tailgate in the parking lots to eat, the Ohio State University is only a few miles north of downtown Columbus. From there, you will find plenty of bars and restaurants to visit to eat before going to the venue for a game.

 

Can You Tailgate and Eat at an Ohio State Buckeyes Game?

Tailgating before the kickoff of a college football game at Ohio State is a fan-favorite pastime. Fans tailgating a few hours before game day have rules to follow. One rule is  keeping your tailgating area within the 8.5′ x 15′ for regular parking. Another rule is to have no fire pits, fire rings, or other types of open burning at your tailgate area.

 

You will see plenty of fans eating and drinking in the parking lots before kickoff. Just remember that if you plan on tailgating before the game, all outside food and drinks can’t enter with you into the stadium. Therefore, you will need to either finish the food, put it back in your car, or throw it away.

 

Finally, fans should check out the team’s official tailgating policy to learn about the rules.
