JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. --- It's time once again to tailgate!

For the 11th straight year, a Central Bank/KRCG Tailgate will be coming to a high school near you, including this Friday night prior to the Jefferson City Jays-St. Louis University High clash at Adkins Stadium.

The first tailgate was held Sept. 1 at Helias, and subsequent tailgates be held prior to the Hallsville at California game on Sept. 22, and California at Blair Oaks on Oct.  6. All tailgates run from 5-6:30 p.m. Paying fans will receive a free T-shirt, quarter pound hot dog, Hy-Vee chips and Coke and/or Pepsi products. Fans are advised to arrive early while supplies last.

In the first 10 years, Central Bank has given away more than 53,000 T-shirts and too many hot dogs to count.

An overflow crowd of more than 3,000 fans squeezed into the new Ray Hentges Stadium on Aug. 18 at Helias. It was the first true "home" game in the history of the program after a 60-year "road" trip.
