Has anyone picked up anything new for your tailgating arsenal this year?

My brother in laws and I have slowly added to ours the past few years, and this year we went with a 2nd large TV. We now have 2 TV's over 40" that we will use to watch games in the lots. I will get a pic once I get it all setup. We are also kicking around the idea of re-purposing an old boards game for a game like Chippo.

The family in our group that has the tent is moving after this season so we will be needing to purchase a 10 x 10 tailgating tent with sidewalls. Any recommendations on brand? - some seem so flimsy. I'll probably be walking around B-5 asking various groups what they are using this fall.

I bought a Logo brand Iowa State tent at HyVee about 5 years ago and it has held up really well. Just an FYI but the licensed team tents are all 9 x 9.

Tents are great. I recommend getting some leg/post weights.
 
I landed a 10x20 ISU tent a few years back. I wish I would have bought 2 when they were available. Now no one makes them anymore. Unless someone has one for sale?

Logo brand tents tend to hold up the best, in my experience.

If you're tailgating on pavement, have weights, otherwise stakes and tie-downs for the windy days can help as well.

We have a young one that will be taking up a seat in our equinox, leaving less room to pack all the tailgating supplies. I am looking for one of those luggage rack/cargo carriers that fit into the hitch. We have a 1.25 in hitch. Basically something to hold a couple or coolers and a tent. Any recommendations?

I bought this one last year for my Forester and really like it. The higher the sides, the better in my opinion

I've got my eyes on getting this heater for the cold weather tailgates:
