Book Description

Traditions of the SEC December 2004
Volume II of the popular tome on Southeastern Conference Football History & Tradition is bigger (288 pp.) and better (new features) than ever! The book's statistics on every team, coach and player have been updated to reflect totals leading into the 2004 season. "A Tailgater's Guide To SEC Football," which was featured on the 2003 History Channel documentary "Tailgating" with comedian Tom Arnold, has been called "The Bible of SEC Football." It has everything you need to know about the nation's toughest football conference...and MUCH, MUCH MORE!

Do you know the interesting story behind how each SEC school acquired its mascot, colors and nickname(s)? Do you know where to go to eat or drink when you travel to watch your team play in Gainesville or Athens or Baton Rouge? Do you know or have the words to your school’s alma mater and fight song? What about a tailgating recipe--do you have one for the big game? If not, don’t fret, because it’s all inside "A Tailgater’s Guide To SEC Football" by Dr. Chris Warner.

For tailgating aficianados there are authentic Cajun recipes, penned by Chef Jeff Warner, named after each SEC institution like "Crimson Tide Seafood Gumbo," "Rebel Red Beans & Rice" and Jordan-Hare Shrimp & Okra Stew!

SEC Football is the paragon of the college athletic experience. No other conference has produced as many All-Americans and national championships. The Southeastern Conference today boasts more attendance records than any other conference. This book details the rich history and traditions of each of the SEC’s twelve member schools.

A HISTORY OF TAILGATING

As early as college football’s first sanctioned game between Rutgers and Princeton in 1869, food and the pigskin went hand in hand. During the earliest contests it was customary for spectators of both teams to engage in a wild fish and game supper before the contest and then once again after it was over.

This book is the ultimate gift for the serious SEC Fan!

This review is from: A Tailgater's Guide to Sec Football: Traditions of the Sec (Paperback)
This is a great book for all those football fans. Coverage is exclusively about the SEC, but then, is there anyone else who plays football as well?

Clear, great sports writing in this volume of anecdotes.
