The 20 Funniest Tailgates and Drunk Fans

There are certain things that go beautifully with sports.

Food. Face paint. Exuberance. Beer.

And when you put them all together, you have yourself one heck of a tailgate. There are few things as fun as heading to the stadium early, grilling a few brats, knocking back a few brews, and talking sports with your friends.

But as with anything else in life, proper tailgating has its limits. There is such a thing as being too drunk, after all.

The following fans, however, not only crossed that line, but they did so in some of the most hysterical ways imaginable. From silly dancing to belligerent heckling, these people aren't afraid to let loose.

We're just glad the people near them documented it and shared it on YouTube.

Bottoms up!

(Note: several of these slides are NSFW. So put on the headphones and enjoy!)

20. The Dangers of Funneling Beers at FSU

Rule number one when funneling beers:

CHUG, CHUG, CHUG!

Rule number two when funneling beers:

Keep your head on a swivel!

19. Collette Connell, This One's For You

Alabama fans really love their football team.

I mean, they really love their football team, like Patton Oswalt loved the Eagles in Big Fan.

Sheesh.

18. The Dumbest Game Ever Invented

In general, I enjoy the occasional drinking game. Beer pong, flip cup, kings, a-hole—these are all wonderful games.

But chugging a beer and spinning around until falling over from dizziness?

That just sounds like a poor idea.

It is a good idea, however, for you to watch this video until the end.

Trust me, it's worth it.

17. May the Hoosier Be with You

I knew Bobby Knight had a crazy temper, but I never knew Indiana had aligned themselves with the Dark Side of the Force.

In true Star Wars geekdom, I was incredibly pissed at the end of this video when an Indiana student called the stormtrooper "Obi," as in Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Dude, what the hell?

Get some Star Wars facts, and come back and see me.

16. Why Would Any Man Participate in This?

Here, this Steelers fan demonstrates the full measure of pain Pittsburgh experienced during the collapse of the steel industry.

Ouch.

15. I Don't Think They Were Drinking Tea

Music + sand + a few drunk Englishmen = a raging good time.

Yeah, that sounds about right.

14. The Cardinals Hip Thrust

For whatever reason, people will dance like drunken fools at baseball games, hoping—nay, needing—to appear on the Jumbotron.

It is one thing to have fun and dance. It is quite another to dance...well, like this guy.

It is one of baseball's traditions that I have simply never understood, much like I don't understand why people insist on doing the wave.

Watch the game, damn it!

13. What Do Bills Fans Have to Dance About?

You know you make me want to quit!

Pick a new team and quit!

This team's never legit!

They never win sh—

My god, I am lit!

The guards might make me split!

Buh-uf-a-lo! (repeat many, many times)

12. Teach Me How to Dougie?

Or perhaps more accurately, teach me how to hold my liquor.

11. Standing on the Shoulders of Portable Toilets

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Life as a Browns Fan: A YouTube Documentary.

Watch as this fans strips away layers of pain, revealing the broken man hidden deep inside.

10. The USC Shuffle

The best part of this video is the music selections. Well done, YouTube user TheFfxx.

The worst part, of course, is the dancing.

9. Bon Jovi Does This to People, I Guess...

Apparently, this wasn't staged. This fan simply needed to dance his cares away.

I don't know if alcohol was involved, but it probably should have been, so it makes the list.

8. The Arizona State Jitterbug

"Oh that guy—he was a player back in the day, you know he was."

If by "a player back in the day" you mean he was a creepy guy that used to scare women with gyrations best described as organized seizures, then yes, he most certainly was a player back in the day.

7. Arizona State, Part Two: This Is How It Is Done

Sure, he takes a spill, it happens to the best of us.

But my man has the ladies flocking to him, and for that, he deserves the full measure of our respect.

Wait a minute—I think this is the same guy from the previous slide. Is he an oddball, or the coolest dude ever?

Or is he somehow just both?

I'm going with both. Well played, sir.

6. Granny Don't Play

Oh, the stories she will have for bingo night.

5. The Randy Savage of Tailgating

Everybody knows it is awesome to jump from the bed of a pickup truck, launching yourself through a table.

That goes without saying.

But trust me, you haven't lived until you've jumped through the same table twice. That, my friends, is a little something I like to call being a legend.

Now somebody pass me a beer, I need to chug until this headache—along with any other brain activity—goes away.

4. This Guy Probably Thinks Wrestling Is Real

This poor, poor reporter.

I can't verify that this wrestling fan was drunk, but if he wasn't, he should probably be monitored by the proper authorities.

3. A Drunken Dodger Fan Inadvertently Entertains the Crow

My absolute favorite part of this video is at the 3:05 mark, when the guy realizes he is being taped and tries to determine how to respond. His thought process was as follows:

Hey, wait a second—these kids are taping me. They haven't been laughing at the other team this whole time, they've been laughing at me! Why I ought to...

DODGERS! LET'S GO DODGERS! YA YA YA YA YA YA DODGERS, WHOOOO!

Wait, what was I just thinking about? Jeez, I'm out of beer, that must have been it.

DODGERS! LET'S GO DODGERS! YA YA YA YA YA YA DODGERS, WHOOOO!

Wait, what was I just thinking about?

2. USC Grandma Does a Booty Drop Like Whoa!

Everybody except one person thinks this is awesome.

And that person is the grandson or granddaughter of this excitable USC grandmother.

That person is currently in therapy.

Lots and lots of therapy.

1. Ride 'em Cowboy!

America's team?

Meh.

America's lap dance?

Indeed.
