Tallahassee Tailgate Event Overview: Tallahassee’s 2nd Annual Kickoff to a Cure will combine two of Tallahassee’s favorite pastimes: food and football.  With area companies, restaurants and families, the Saturday-game day fun will offer guests the opportunity to tailgate with foods from local restaurants while cheering on the Florida State Seminoles. The Noles will provide the entertainment from Clemson, South Carolina while they battle the Tigers via large TV’s positioned throughout the Duesenberg Banquet Hall at the Tallahassee Automobile Museum.  During the first half, many of the area’s favorite restaurants will entice football fans with an indoor tailgate of signature fare.  While our team is strategizing during halftime, the fans will bid on fabulous live auction prizes.  A silent auction of artwork, sports memorabilia and great getaways will run throughout the day.  The afternoon will wind down with delicious desserts and hopefully a big Seminoles’ victory! Join us for an event you will not soon forget… fantastic food, fun, and Florida State football awaits you!
