I love all sports! Because I’m originally from GA, I have to cheer for my Georgia Bulldogs! My pro teams are Carolina Panthers and Atlanta Falcons. Love all the tailgating foods you shared! Yummy!
Thanks so much Alli! We went to GA when Ole Miss played them one year. We try to go to at least one big away game each year. It was really fun, I enjoyed the town and the campus. You guys enjoy tailgating too! 🙂
Great collection! Lots of tried and true favs here, I want to try the Hissy Fit dip this year, I have heard of that so thanks for the recipe! My daughter went to Ole Miss and we had lots of fun Saturdays in the Grove! We are big Bama fans and although we don’t tailgate, we have major parties in front of the big screen for every football game! Thanks for sharing your collection~
My husband doesn’t hunt or do sports, tailgating is he extracurricular! lol, I have to start thinking about food early. You know there’s always something everybody expects you to bring, then I want to bring new stuff too. It’s fun, I like everything about tailgating.
Nice collection. There’s a lot of ideas here! Thanks for sharing at Sweet & Savory Saturdays #25!

SUCH a great collection of recipes, Paula! 🙂
Sometimes I wish I went to a big ten school so I could have gotten into college football more. Its not that I don’t like it, we actually watch pro football more. In fact, I’m in a ladies fantasy team. But, I will agree with you College is definitely more passionate. Love all the dips! 🙂 Great post.
These are perfect for football season! Can’t wait until that starts. Not that I watch a lot of it but it’s always fun to have a few beers and watch some of a game!
MMM, I love dips! Can’t wait to try many if these! Thank you for including my hummus!
I’m trying your hummus first! Can’t wait!
YUMMY! Thanks for including a few of my recipes too – you’re the best! Sharing with my peeps this weekend!
Awesome! thanks for sharing and thanks for allowing me to use your links! Have a great weekend!
Yummy in my tummy! Stopping by from BEST OF THE WEEKEND PARTY.
Thanks for stopping by!
Yummers! Nothing better than a delicious dip and something crunchy to eat it with! Thanks for including my Artichoke & Roasted Garlic Dip 🙂
You’re welcome! Thanks for letting me! Hope it brings you some traffic!
What a great round-up! I learned to appreciate college football after I married my husband. As a UT alumni, he bleeds orange through and through. He prefers it over pro football as well. Once the football season begins, I’m going to have to start dishing out some delicious finger foods and this is a great place to start 😉
oh, we have two friends that are the same way about UT – Brock Lodge, I wouldn’t be surprised if you husband knows he and his wife. I think they know everyone! Literally, our Fall consists are of football and that’s about it. Have you started classes yet?
I don’t watch football, don’t know a thing about it. Now I am feeling very left out, like I am missing out on the greatest thing since sliced bread! Maybe I should start 😉
You are missing out on the greatest thing since sliced bread, Lisa!!! Did you look at the post at the bottom ‘This is how we Tailgate’? You’ll see why I love it so much when you do! 🙂 I do like the football, it’s such a complex sport, but I LOVE the tailgating part – food, cocktails, friends – nothing better 🙂
This is great! My husband and I looooove pro football! We are super excited that pre season just started yesterday! We usually don’t tailgate or have friends over, but I’m sure I can still use these just for us. My favorite pro team is the Steelers, but since I live in San Diego I have to support the Chargers. Thanks! Pinning 🙂
Ooohhhhhh, I love dips!! Such a fabulous collection of yummies, Paula. Thank you so much for including a few of my creations!
