Tailgate The Nation Film Fund Raising Drive

Back in July we told you about a group of extraordinary documentary filmmakers who in 2009, took a 100 day trip across America to capture the essence and the spirit that surrounds college football tailgating. Titled “Tailgate The Nation” and funded 100% with the producers’ own money, this independent film is almost at the finish line. In order to complete the film they need to raise about $7,500 more. Take a look at the preview of the film.
