Dave-McGee

Believe it or not, many University of Louisville football fans are still tailgating in the parking lot at the Kentucky Exposition Center, and the parties keep getting bigger and better. One of them is vying for national honors in the Gordo’s Cheese Dip Ultimate Tailgating Competition.

That would be David Magee, who along with dozens of his closest friends, gather for every home game in Section H at the old fairgrounds. He’s competing for a grand prize that includes free tickets to the bowl game of his choice and three nights lodging, a prize valued at $2,500.

Magee’s tailgate has been going strong since 2009. He takes his tailgating on the road sometimes as well, attracting approximately 300 people for the opening game against Auburn in the Chick-fil-A Classic in Atlanta.

The contest ends on Sunday, and he’s trailing an Arkansas fan by 400 votes. Go here to see David’s video and vote for him. Now please.
