I'm probably doing both Toby the Van's tailgate as well as the official 'gater. Silly, I know, but they both have their upsides.

Only the food part was a disaster--seeing familiar faces and such was successful. It's a shame that I couldn't have also seen friends who were not attending the tailgate...3 hrs is really not that long if you take a break between the end of the Rose Parade (which ended at 10:20ish AM for us) and 1:30PM. It's kind of a hike to the stadium as well.
What was cool on my hike was cheering the team buses as they came down the road behind a CHP motorcycle escort. Some guys were in their zone with headphones, and others were taking it all in, filming out the window with their smartphones.

I also enjoyed it. I think the experience was entirely dependent on when you got in. Me and my friends arrived at opening time, more-or-less, and loved it.
