RENO, Nev. – The University of Nevada athletics department is hosting pregame tailgates at Legacy Hall that are open to the public for each of the final three home football games, beginning Saturday with Homecoming against Wyoming.
The “Let’s Talk Football” Tailgates begin two hours before kickoff at Legacy Hall, the main athletics building located across from the main gates at the southeast entrance to Mackay Stadium. The tailgates end 15 minutes before kickoff.
Each tailgate features three Wolf Pack speakers, including athletics director Doug Knuth. Fans will also get a primer on that day’s opponent from Doug Lichtenberger of the football staff, and will also hear from that game’s honorary captain, a former Wolf Pack great.
Cost is just $20 for adults, which includes a meal, dessert, unlimited soda and water, and one adult beverage. This week’s menu includes hand-carved prime rib with au jus and horseradish sauce, Yukon Gold mashed potatoes, green beans with apple pecan and blue salad. Dessert options include double chocolate brownies and assorted cookies. Cost for children is just $10.
This week’s Homecoming game against Wyoming kicks off at 7:30 p.m., with the pregame tailgate at Legacy Hall starting at 5:30 p.m. RSVP to Judi Cail at (775) 682-2901.
