Ah, football season — the thrill of the game, the change of the season, the camaraderie of cheering fans at Kroger Field. But the most exciting thing of all? Yes, the tailgating.

When it comes to tailgating, Kroger proves they believe in going big and going home by providing an Ultimate Tailgating Experience for football fans at every UK home football game.

The all-out, pre-game tailgating event — complete with free food, two free drinks (beer, seltzers, or non-alcoholic bevs), music, corn hole, and giveaways — is free + open to Kroger customers who:

  • (New this year) Show a $35 Kroger receipt within the seven days prior to the game

The tailgating tent opens two hours prior to UK home football games and is located in the parking lot of Kroger Field.

See you there, LEX.
