From the moment gates opened, fans were treated to 3 full hours of energy, great food, games, and live entertainment. With a curated playlist courtesy of our DJ, a photo booth capturing memories in real time, and a variety of tailgate favorites served up with a smile, it wasn’t just a warm-up — it was an experience. In fact, highlights Included: A buzzing crowd of 21+ fans enjoying drinks from our cash bar, Interactive games and sponsor activations. Alongside tailgate-only merch drops and branded giveaways. Best of all, fans were able to capture their experience in real time with our photobooth memories before fans made their way to MetLife. But the party didn’t end there... Inside the Stadium, the Savvy Seats team was spotted soaking in the music and moments, connecting with fans, and continuing the celebration. From parking lot vibes to front-row sights and sounds, this tailgate marked the start of something BIG.
