If the goal is to have the Glass Bowl at its rocking best for the Toledo-Bowling Green game, it’s a good thing TV did not come a-knocking.

Before the rivalry’s first weekend game in five years, fans can now sneak in a few extra hours of tailgating (check out our friends from Unanimous Decision rocking the stage in Lot 10).
