Join the Dead MBA crew before the Ags take on Missouri State to kick off Tailgate Season. On the menu is Build Your Own Nachos (or Salad!). Whether you’re here for the football, the fellowship, or just trying to determine the optimal chip-to-topping ratio, we’ve got you covered.

Tailgate kicks off at 9AM sharp, because real fans know the game starts long before kickoff.

Food hits the table at 2PM, featuring a spread of nacho fixings. Come hungry, leave happy.

Support the Dead MBA Scholarship
Every tailgate is about more than just food and football – it’s about giving back. Please consider donating to the Dead MBA Scholarship Fund, which helps support future students. Every gift makes an impact, and here’s how your donation can help:

• $30 – Cover the Fun: Pays for you meal, drinks, and a little extra goes to scholarships.
• $50 – Invest in a Student: Provides meaningful support toward a scholarship.
• $100+ – Scholarship Champion: Helps us get closer to funding a full scholarship

Quick heads‑up: We’re scaling back the usual Dead MBA Tailgate for the Texas A&M vs. Miami College Football Playoff game on Dec. 20, but we want to be there together even if the logistics force us to simplify the tailgate. Instead of a full production tailgate we’ll do an old‑school morning hangout starting around 8:00 AM before the 11:00 AM kickoff; bring your own drinks, food, and chairs, and consider a year‑end donation to our scholarship fund.

What we’re doing: rather than trying to run our usual full setup for an early kickoff, we’re keeping things simple and social. Expect a handful of coolers, folding chairs, a little music, and good conversation — the kind of old‑school hangout that started this whole thing. We’ll be on site around 8:00 AM to claim a spot and catch up before the 11:00 AM kickoff. Bring what you need: BYOB, BYO food/snacks, chairs, blankets, and anything that makes your morning comfortable. The vibe will be casual, friendly, and focused on community and the game.

Why this matters beyond the scoreboard: the tailgate has always been about more than food and music, it’s a way to bring Aggies together and to raise scholarship money for kids who need it. If you’ve been planning to support that mission, donations made before the end of the year help us close the season strong and send more students to school. Even a small gift makes a real difference in how many students we can impact.

How you can help: bring extra coolers or a portable speaker if you can, share a tray of breakfast tacos or snacks, and cleanup as we go so there isn’t anything to do after the game other than celebrate the win! Anyone is welcome, so invite friends to join the hangout if you are inclined, but set expectations that it won’t be the full tailgate setup.

This is a different kind of tailgate, not a downgrade, just a return to the roots: friends, stories, and the game. Come early, bring your gear, and let’s make a morning of it before we cheer the Aggies on at Kyle Field.

Well folks, it’s that time again — Northgate Tailgate weekend is here! While we won’t be rolling out the full spread of food and drinks this time, the spirit of Aggie camaraderie is alive and well. We’ll be gathering at our usual spot: The Dixie Chicken (“The Chicken”) in Northgate. Doors open early, so plan to be there around 8:00 AM to grab a table and settle in.

This weekend’s tailgate is a little different. Instead of our traditional setup with tents, grills, and coolers, we’re keeping things simple — just good company, cold drinks from The Chicken, and plenty of Aggie spirit. Even though we’re scaling back, we still want to keep the heart of Dead MBA Tailgate strong: supporting the scholarship fund.

👉 How you can help:

• Stop by The Chicken and join the crew for pre-game fun, then come back out after the game to continue the action.
• Contribute directly to the Dead MBA Scholarship Fund — every dollar helps us continue to support deserving Aggies.
• Share the word with friends and classmates who might want to join in or donate.

And the fun doesn’t stop when the game ends! After the final whistle, we’ll head over to Corner Bar to catch the afternoon slate of games together. From there, we may wander through Northgate for a little bar-hopping adventure.

📲 Stay in the loop: Follow us on Twitter/X (@DeadMBATailgate) for live updates on where we move to throughout the afternoon. That way, if the crowd shifts or we hop to another spot, you’ll know exactly where to find us.

Northgate tailgates have always been about community, tradition, and keeping the Aggie spirit alive. Whether you’re a regular or it’s your first time, we’d love to see you there. Come raise a glass, swap stories, and help us keep the scholarship fund thriving.

See y’all at Northgate this Saturday — 8 AM at The Chicken, and Corner Bar after the game. Gig ’em! 👍

The long offseason is finally over, and we’re dusting off the folding chairs, firing up the satellite, and prepping for another glorious season of football, food, and fellowship. First up: Ags vs. Roadrunners this Saturday!

🕘 Tailgate kicks off at 9AM sharp, because real fans know the game starts long before kickoff.

🥪 Food hits the table at 2PM, featuring a spread of sandwich fixings—turkey, ham, and a few mystery combos that may or may not be the result of late-night fridge raids. Come hungry, leave happy.

📍Same spot as always. If you’re new, just follow the sound of laughter, 42, and morning football. (Or check out the locations link on this web page)

💸 Scholarship Reminder! As in seasons past, we’re collecting donations to support student scholarships (we awarded $3,500 this fall!). Your generosity helps real students chase real dreams—and maybe one day tailgate with us as alumni. Every dollar makes a difference, and every donor gets good karma and bragging rights.

So bring your appetite, your game face, and your giving spirit. Let’s make this season unforgettable, starting with a win and a wicked sandwich.

See y’all Saturday and BTHO the Roadrunners! Gig ‘em!
