Nebraska Athletics, together with University Nebraska-Lincoln Student Affairs, today announced "The Bone Yard", a new on-campus tailgate experience that will be created in partnership with REVELXP, the leader in best-in-class fan engagement. The area will include 60 tents, food and music before four home games this season when the Huskers face Fordham, Buffalo, Northwestern and Michigan.
The tailgating experience will be located in the Donald and Lorena Meier Commons area, just north of the Nebraska Union. Tents will be funded by the university and assigned to student groups, though open to all UNL students. The area will be open four hours prior to kickoff:
Fordham – 7 AM – 10:45 AM
Buffalo – 10:30 AM – 2:15 PM
Northwestern – 2:30 PM – 6:15 PM
Michigan – TBD pending kickoff time
Recognized Student Organizations (RSO) and college affiliated student organizations can request tents through the NvolveU platform. Tents will be granted on a first-come, first-serve basis.
"The energy and passion the students bring to Husker football is unmatched and we are excited to enhance their Husker game day experience." – Nebraska Athletics Director Trev Alberts
