No two things unite tailgaters more than fine food and delicious drinks. And that’s especially true for Mountaineer fans. The team colors you’re sporting don’t much matter, unless you happen to stumble into a student tailgate. We all share a deep desire to socialize and impress guests with a heavenly meal and mouthwatering drinks.
In this section, I’ll be sharing some of those fabulous food and drink recipes, as well as recommendations for some wild and wonderful watering holes and restaurants in Morgantown. I hope you enjoy!
If you have a special Morgantown hangout or eatery, feel free to share with me at wvutailgating@gmail.com.
