    Default Tailgating Business

    Hi guys, I'm considering starting a company that is specifically geared towards taking passengers to sporting events and concerts in the Philly area. Instead of a standard van/bus, I would create a 8 pass vehicle outfitted for tailgating. My question for the senior companies is would I be able to obtain a steady client base to keep operating?

    I'm not sure about your area, but I would guess that the answer would be no. There are simply not enough tailgating events that happen. Not to mention that the majority of people getting a vehicle for tailgating want a vehicle that has a rest room on it.

    Football is the only sport I see a tailgating party going on. Concerts not as much.

    There are 7-9 games per season including pre seasons games during the football season. What are you going to do with the other 356 days.

    A "steady" client base? You mean like regular, repeat lushes? Just kidding (kind of)... I don't see this as something with a return worth the effort.
    BUT... good luck to you should you decide to have a go.

    Better Idea i have see is a standard livery vehicle with a trailer for tailgating:
    BBQ
    ICE BIN
    Blender Hook up for Marguiritas
    Strap some chairs on there and umbrellas even tables

    Then the could hire your limo like anyone else and add on the Tailgating package for a fee.

    Then do not forget you wil probably get charged more for parking atthe stadium. I mean they already charge us double for a limo, maybe they would overlook the trailer. Probably not.
