The NFL tailgating videos are trickling in and we have a possible “Busted Coverage Tailgating Video Of The Year” nominee after just one week.
Last year we were really amused by the Jets Car-beque video. Flash forward to yesterday. Leave it to Falcons fans to bring some used piece of crap Cash For Clunker’s van painted in Dolphins colors for a good ‘ol fashioned sledgehammering from the locals.
Hey, even the kids got in on the fun. Nothing like training them for the future!

It’s finally here. The weekend East Coast drunks have circled on their calendars months in advance. There’s this horse race called the Preakness at a track called Pimlico in a shitty part of suburban Baltimore where tens of thousands of drunks will converge Saturday to get completely bombed.
And bet on horses that hopefully won’t break a leg.
We’re not sure what moron out there would purchase a $148,000 BCS Championship Game luxury box through StubHub, but then again, look at all those people that trusted Bernie Madoff with their money.
Just when you think the economy sucks to the point of rich people cutting back on their college football ticket budgets, this deal comes along.
It’s coming Browns fan. That horribly long off-season.
And the career of Romeo Crennel as coach of the team.
But that hasn’t stopped Browns fan from getting a head start on booting tubby right out of town.
What was the fake Romeo thinking as he was walking through the Muni Lot?
After the jump…
Now that there is an NFL Fan Code of Conduct going to a professional football game is like attending the French Open.
Fans sit on their hands, drink ‘a’ beer and shake hands with the opposing fans.
Uh, that isn’t happening reports the St. Paul Pioneer Press. In fact, the newspaper sent a reporter to document the drunken good time had yesterday by fans of Green Bay and the Vikings.
The results of the impromptu investigation are fun, disturbing and expected.
A few of the highlights from this awesome read:
Code of Conduct states you cannot taunt opposing fans. Instant ejection. The guy ended up with a disorderly charge and a visit to jail.
This was a new expiriment for Busted Coverage.
Actually hire a photographer to chronicle the happenings at the biggest college football game of the weekend. In a single night after putting a listing on Craigslist, we had at least 10 photographers offer to shoot this assignment.
Our guinea pig was Cody, a pro out of Dallas, who somehow got tangled up with this outfit.
The following photos give you a slice of the action outside the 2008 Red River Shootout.

Frankie Hejduk isn’t exactly your household American sports name.
He’s been on the US World Cup team, Olympic teams, played in Europe, and is currently captain for the Columbus Crew.
But he suddenly jumped into a possible Busted Coverage Hall of Fame nomination after his performance Saturday night before the much anticipated Crew-LA Galaxy (with Beckham, don’t miss the Beck’s blowup doll that showed up in Cbus for this one) match.
Hejduk, suspended for this game, took to the parking lot and joined in with the fans for cold beers and some good old fashioned American soccer chants. And cameras were rolling.
You’ll only waste 30-seconds of company time watching this one.
Imagine getting pummeled by hurricanes, death and destruction. Year after year.
It’ll make you drink, too. You’ll get so drunk that the yellow sundress worn to show LSU colors will look really, really good as you shake it at the Krewe of Miss Lou tailgate.
The floor is yours.
Do your thing.
The coolest John McCain shirt spotted at the IU-Ball State tailgate.
There were minor mentions here last week about the debauchery that took place before the Sept. 20 IU-Ball State game.
Somehow we missed this in-game news from the Indiana Daily Student.
Police arrested Lucas Widdicombe after someone sitting near him said he had a cup, and “he had urinated in the cup and was going to throw it at Ball State fans.”
But was that really urine?
The usher supervisor who found Widdicombe said the cup Widdicombe carried did smell like urine, according to the report.
So a guy really put his nose into the cup to get a whiff. Tough job.
