If you're talking an organized by UM tailgate, I can't be of assistance. If you're looking for general tailgating information for visiting fans, I'm happy to share info on those options.
Thanks for the offer! Where would you park there? Or do you park at Tanger and get a shuttle bus?
Parking at Tanger would be farther than I'd expect the Appalcart (Boone's bus line) to run.
Home - Downtown Boone will give you info on downtown Boone parking details. Be sure you click on the parking and scroll to the bottom of the page for gameday parking info. My vote would generally be for the Watauga Social Services lot on Poplar Grove Connector. It's a flat (by Boone standards) walk to the stadium and usually has shuttles running.
All campus lots are reserved for App State booster club donors. The basics on prohibited items in the stadium, tailgating, parking (will show you what is restricted to Yosef members) can be found at

Regardless of where you plan to park, plan on being early. This is one game I'm definitely glad for my Yosef Club parking pass!
We'll know more as the game gets closer. I'm guessing they might make the old high school location available with shuttles to the stadium. There will have to be some serious planning to handle all the people who will be in town that weekend. I'll be sure to provide updates as we get them.
