A Football Trunk Tailgate

A “house divided” football game has been a conversation of ours for years — so we took full advantage when a University of Texas vs. University of Arkansas game was added to the calendar! Alex and I drove our Roadshow BMW X3 up to Fayetteville (arguably one of the most beautiful drives within 5 hours of Memphis) and packed our crossover’s tailgate full of accessories and ingredients for a lunch trunk tailgate.

Bella Vita provided the most darling of details for a Southern tailgate, from apparel and shatterproof glassware (adorned with your school of choice’s college campus iconography) to dishes and linens.

I love playing off of a color palette through the dishes and drinks being served. An amber-colored beer and bright red Bloody Mary showcased the Arkansas and Texas spirit effortlessly. We brought in some “Woo Pig” nods through ham and cheese party sliders (pigs in a blanket would also be perfect) and some tastes of Texas through queso, jalapeños, and smoky seasonings.
