These Are The Best Universities For Tailgating, Rush Week, And Partying
Students for years have been debating over whose school is better. It’s a never-ending dick measuring contest over which school parties the hardest, has the best tailgates, or the best Greek scene. I’ve actually done a lot of my own research on these subjects.
However, I decided to sit this one out so Tilt could tell you which schools do it best. Tilt, an app that Greeks across the nation are using to send money to each other, decided to do a little digging into the stats. They wanted to see who, exactly, has the best tailgating, rush week, and party scene. How did they come up with this? By figuring out which schools spent the most on these things.
Here are the results:
Top Tailgating Schools
Top Rush Week Schools
Top Party Schools
I actually have no qualms with the tailgating list. It seems pretty accurate to me for the top few schools. The Grove is no doubt the best tailgate you’ll ever go to. The rush week rankings include a bunch of schools that do Greek life well, too, so I have no issue there. I would like all of us to take a second to laugh at North Texas for making the party school list.
So, remember kids, in order to rage harder than the rest of the nation, you gotta open up that wallet and toss some cash around.
Claiming you’re number one because you spent the most. TFM..

Why is Alabama not on the top rush week? Aren’t they the biggest Greek system?
10 years ago at 8:08 amBiggest sorority life and second biggest fraternity life I believe.
10 years ago at 8:56 amWe do fraternity rush during the summer. The infographic probably goes off of a range of dates where most of rush is over.
10 years ago at 10:08 amAre you salty enough to rate all those rockers bro?
10 years ago at 10:23 amMy deserts looked like snow camouflage and my woodlands looked like that ugly Seabee lime green. I’d say so
10 years ago at 12:37 pmOur pledge classes are filled by the time school starts. We don’t really have a “rush week”
10 years ago at 10:40 amIt’s West Virginia University not University of West Virginia you imbecile
10 years ago at 8:11 amTo be fair, copy and pasting infographics is pretty strenuous work. Doubt he had time to proofread
10 years ago at 9:52 amCongrats, you can copy paste. I bet you masturbate using your pointer finger and your thumb.
10 years ago at 8:11 amI masturbate using your mother and a brown paper bag
10 years ago at 3:48 pmHow is Wake Forest on the top tailgate? I am from Winston Salem, and I almost forgot they even have a football team.
10 years ago at 8:12 amYoure becoming the new Steve
10 years ago at 8:20 amNo he’s just becoming the boulevard again.
10 years ago at 11:52 amNo Texas A&M?
10 years ago at 8:20 amTailgating is hide at A&M. I’m surprised we didn’t make the list
10 years ago at 10:05 amHuge*
10 years ago at 10:05 amNope, you got it right the first time champ.
10 years ago at 11:31 amI may be biased as an Aggie, but our tailgates are massive and we are having a three day tailgate for the home opener. Texas BBQ, tons of alcohol, rich alums, gorgeous women, and an SEC football team. I’m not saying we should be number one but we have to at least make the list.
10 years ago at 11:44 amMake near the top* of the list
10 years ago at 11:46 amRegarding tailgating, I agree. And how the hell did LSU make 2nd? Every LSU alum and student I have ever talked to has said Baton Rouge is a nightmare, and they prefer to come to Aggieland. The Rush (and Greek life in general), however, I can see. A&M didn’t even have a recognized Greek presence until the 80’s. Before then, it was only unrecognized colonies. It is the only school in Texas that I know of that doesn’t have an on campus Greek presence. and by all accounts Greek life was mediocre until we entered the SEC then all of the Nationals began investing more in the chapters and colonies here.
10 years ago at 4:35 pmNo, these are not.
10 years ago at 8:31 amAmazing insights, Harrison … amazing. The one about UNT was extremely thought provoking. Thanks for all of the hard research / work on this article ….
10 years ago at 8:37 amIU not making the top tailgating schools list is ridiculous. That’s all we have going for us
10 years ago at 9:05 amYour football team blows wiener though
10 years ago at 9:25 amIU tailgating was great 4 years ago before the admin came down. It blows now and shouldnt be on the list
10 years ago at 10:25 amIndiana is irrelevant outside of Indiana
10 years ago at 10:38 amI forgot Miami was Ohio State.
