[FONT=Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif]Many have asked about grilling and drinking in the parking lots, and the answer is always "This ain't Chicago!" You can grill, fry and have fires as long as you have an enclosed fire pit. Tents and awnings are permitted, and the enjoyment of alcohol is absolutely permitted in the parking lots but not openly on the streets. Hell, I even know of one tailgate where the cops show up every game and eat.[/FONT]
[FONT=Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif]Detroit is pretty leniant on most things and as long as some form of common sense is being applied, you're pretty much allowed to do it. The city is just happy to have you there, so enjoy yourselves and be safe. These guidelines apply to most if not all open-air lots in Detroit, you may, however, find some exceptions with particular lots and parking structures[/FONT]
[FONT=Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif]Parking can range from $15 - $50 depending on the distance from the stadium.[/FONT]

Awesome place to tailgate. This is the place to see and be seen; custom rigs, tubgaters, radio stations and a general carnival atmosphere. We tailgate here when hosting our big events. Port-a-potties available.[/FONT]
