Can you tailgate at MetLife?

If you plan on going to the game, good news, you're welcome to come early and hang out with other hockey fans. Tailgating isn't just allowed, it's encouraged, according to NHL chief content officer Steve Mayer.

"The parking lots open early and as far as tailgating ... go for it," Mayer said on nhl.com. "This is Jersey. Whether you're going to a Giants or Jets football game, or seeing Bruce Springsteen, you're always out here early, you're out here all day. This is an experience, it's just not a hockey game. And if you just come for a hockey game, you lose out. We want people to get here and enjoy the fan experience."
