And, for special effect, smash a large pumpkin or several small pumpkins, then splatter the pumpkin pulp and seeds onto your RV.  Stage the smashed pumpkin(s) near the RV door and plop some red Jell-O gelatin around the pumpkins resting area for the horror effect.

With football season almost here, why not consider an RV tailgating party?  You can rent an RV, invite some friends and hit the road to cheer your team on to victory!

RV Tailgating Party Game Plan

Get a copy of the sporting venue rules prior to your RV tailgating party. Each venue is different in what they allow so read the rules carefully. Here are items to look for:

• Tailgating - Does the venue allow tailgating and how early can tailgaters arrive before game time?
• RV Parking - Be sure the venue allows and has ample parking for RVs at their events.
• Grilling - It is good to know before you plan your RV tailgating party if the venue allows tailgating and grilling.
• Alcohol - If alcoholic beverages are on your menu, check to see that alcohol is allowed.  And, if you do serve alcohol, be certain to assign a designated driver for your ride home.
