WOW! I never thought the days would come. Can you believe that while tailgating surrounds many of our favorite large sporting events, that it in fact now IS a sport! That’s right, we now have the NTL, or, The National Tailgating League. The National Tailgating League is a newly formed organization created to make tailgating games such as Cornhole, Ladder Golf and Washer Toss an organized sport.
Complete with sponsors such as Budweiser, LifeLock, Race Face and more. The inaugural event will be held this Sunday, May, 23 at the Lowe’s Motor Speedway. Presented by Budweiser this event will surround the Coca Cola 600. There will be two tournaments on each day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon — both open to the public. Each tournament will hold 50 teams and while the cost to play is a mere $20 per person, the prizes include $500 cash, suites passes and tickets to the fall race.
In other words … get to the track, park your car, do your stretches, put on your game face and strut to the “Eye of the Tiger” theme song in your head to the site of the NTL Cornhole tournament at the corner of Highway 29 and Morehead Road, directly across the street from the speedway — stopping to collect free shit along the way, like Will Ferrell loofahs from Old Spice, beads and keychains from beer girls, and Tylenol and Tums.
NASCAR is one of the biggest tailgating sports in the world and Memorial Day is one of the largest tailgating parties of the year. Tailgating is essentially an American tradition … while women break out the recipes, the guys break out the rivalry.
So, while tailgating recipe books are being published, the fire and ice grill and cooler combo is mass produced, sporting event parking lots become more decorated, and new tailgating games get created, the National Tailgating League is makes it official … tailgating is a sport.
