The tailgate will run from 10 am to 1 pm. This way, you'll have 90 minutes to get over to the stadium (3 miles away) before game kick off.
We have the unique opportunity to help the needy and leave a lasting impression on Waco! The BYU Alumni Association is collecting canned soup, canned meat, and baby diapers for Caritas of Waco.
