Friends of mine had all of their food and beer stolen from the blue lot during a game last year
 
That sucks. Apparently we have some locals taking advantage of the tailgate scene.

Hmmmm, hate to say I told you so but unfortunately you can't trust people anymore.

Easy, if you throw it all in the back of a pickup with no cover. Some idiot opened my cooler, didn't take anything, But dumped a containerful of cole slaw all over the beverages.
 
I learned LONG ago that everything has to be locked up when you go in. Can't blame the cops... Guy walking through the parking lot with a grill? Wow, that looks suspicious. I know no one accused the cops or management. I'm just pre-emptying the suggestion they should. Take home message, don't leave your stuff out.
 
I feel your pain. We used to stash our beer cooler under the truck so that whomever was first out after the game didn't have to wait to get a beer. Same with the grill if there wasn't time to clean it. Then about 6 or 7 years ago someone near us asked us if we had seen anyone with their grill...at the same time we found out our beer cooler was gone. Low and behold when I got home and was unpacking the uncooked steaks from that game (we had a significant number of no shows) I asked my wife where the Ny Strips were...she started to laugh..they had gone into our cooler and took the steaks. Best part was..they took the strips and left the filet mignon's there were equal numbers left over of both). We made mention of it the following week to the guys who lost their grill...we came to the conclusion that whom ever had taken the grill hit jackpot lotto..Grill, cooler of beer, and steaks. That was the game where my truck became tailgate central and we started to lock EVERYTHING we had up.
 
I lock up everything when we head in. We had a few of those folding canvas chairs stolen a few years back and ever since, we learned our lesson to lock up our .

Maybe they just borrowed it and forgot to return it!?!? New one on order....will be here in time for next weeks game. I guess that's what I get for rushing....didn't want to put a hot grill in my trunk and have me car burn yet I wanted to get in for kickoff. Oh well....I upgraded. I'm still gonna hunt down the dick who stole it!

Could you trust them in the past. Sick of hearing that we are less safe these days, people are more screwed up, no morals etc. People have always been effed up.

You are a fool if leave your stuff in the back of a pickup truck in East Hartford. I have a locking cover and tailgate.
 
We used a cargo net over everything inthe bed of the truck. It would get tangled in everything, so it took sometime to get at what ever they wanted to steal, plus we could see the truck from our seats. Never lost anything.

Here's my take - a Boneyard guy got his stuff stolen and that sucks.

We shouldn't operate in a world where we constantly have to worry about people stealing our stuff but that's reality.

To anybody who is going to tailgate for the games.... you HAVE to lock your stuff up. People are degenerates. No excuse to not lock your gear.

I had my Coleman grill stolen at a Patriots game with my buddy passed out in the car

Sounds about right for a Patriots' game, and a few too many Patsies' fans. Not being able to trust fellow Huskies' fans and people in general b|ows, but ya' wonder how many things go missing at tailgating events around the country?

Sadly, a lot of good people like PAGS end up dealing with a crummy lesson the hard way. It's not like you can put a GPS on your grills, steaks, coolers, cold frosties, etc., but it'd be great for some people to be made examples of in the Red, Blue, and other lots.

You are correct. Name calling is unnecessary. I just don't understand how you don't lock stuff up though.

Skin them alive, rubbem down with rock salt and dip their body in hot acid!!!!! Why take what you can buy?
 
Sorry to hear about your grill Pags. I lost a flagpole with two flags (one a 2004 dual national title which I couldn't replace) during the NC St game two years ago.

I upgraded (and likely overshot) my grill this summer and had been debating getting a rack that attaches to a trailer hitch as I still need to use part of the back seat in my SUV to pack everything for a tailgate but this unfortunate event convinced me that I need to keep everything locked inside.

Agree Superjohn. We learned the hard way the first year at the rent. Figured it would not be a problem to leave our tailgating stuff out ( No way anyone is going to steal things ). Plus we were in Blue lot 1 row back from the front. Came back to find 2 coolers and 1 grill gone. We were stupid , but we learned our lesson. But I will say it still bothers me that we need to put everything away and then unpack it for post game tailgate. Unfortunately this is the world we live in.
 
Seems like it might be fun to set up a steak out. Surely not everyone of these games needs your complete attention. So park you car at a good distance from your friend and leave the gear under their car. Then slink down in your front seat, listen to Joe D on 1080 and see what happens during the 1st half of the game. Be sure to have your camera phone rolling when the bandits come by. Its probably a very small group of scumbags doing this crap and a singular bust might go a long way.
