After hosting tailgate parties for Wrestlemania 29 and 35 at Metlife Stadium, we decided we have so much fun partying with wrestling fans that we are going to do a party at Wrestlemania 36 in Tampa!!!

We had a blast last April with over 500 guests, and we aim to have an even better party this time around! We have secured a great spot steps to the stadium that will allow us to throw the ultimate wrestling tailgate party that Wretlemania deserves! We will have a stage with cosplay contests in different WWE themes and some amazing prizes! There will also be a DJ and the amazing food TailgateJoe has built a reputation for over the last decade!

For those not familiar with our TailgateJoe parties, included in the price:

  • All the food, soft drinks, and beer you care to have
  • Live DJ playing great music and WWE themes
  • Tailgate games like corn hole, beer pong, and flip cup
  • cosplay contests for great prizes
  • private air conditioned REAL bathroom exclusively for our guests

Types of Tickets Available

  • Advance Registration Party Pass: This is the pass for the party, at a discounted price. The party pass price will increase as we get closer to the date
  • VIP Tent: This is for a personal VIP tent for your group and includes your own beer keg with co2 draft system and beer pong table. This is in addition to the party pass and every member in your group will still need a party pass. This is great for groups as it gives them a home base and rally point within the party.
  • Parking: We have a limited number of parking spots which are right at our party and are good for both the duration of our party and the Wrestlemania show in a safe lot. Park next to the party, and stay there until Mania is over.

Lets Talk Food!

The Mutz Burger: This was our entrant in the prestigious Food Network NYC Wine & Food Festival’s Burger Bash. It consists of a beef blend of chuck, brisket, and short rib from famed NYC butcher Pat Lafrieda that we grill to a perfect medium, fresh mozzarella, crispy onions, and our motor oil gravy. In the words of Motley Crue, this will kickstart your heart!

Pulled Pork: We rub our Spielbergs blend on and slow smoke whole pork shoulder butts for 12+ hours over cherry and apple wood, then pull them off the smoker and take them straight to the party where we pull them on site and toss with ur competition bbq sauce.

The Chili Dog: Lots of people throw out the term “award winning” for something that never even got a participation medal, but not TGJ. After touring the country and hitting up all the best hot dog stands, I came home and created the ultimate chili dog, then went on to be the most winningest competitor in The Great Hot Dog Cookoff. If there were multiple title belts for chili dogs, this bad boy would win the unification match.

Yuengling’s Tampa Brewery: We are proud to have the Tampa Yuengling brewer on as an official sponsor!

BBQ Pork Fried Rice: This is a huge crowd favorite! We set up a 4ft wide pan and fry the rice right in the middle of the party, hibachi style!

And more, check out the full menu below….

On Tap chillin’ in the kegerator: YUENGLING is a proud sponsor of this event!!!

Location: Our location is a secure lot with bathrooms steps from the stadium. Prepaid parking is available.

The exact time of the party will be announced as it gets closer to the event after WWE announces the time for entry, preshow, and live show. It will definitely be at least 4-5 hours worth of partying! The location will also be announced at that time, but it is steps to the main gate of the stadium in a shaded lot with private air conditioned bathrooms, a big plus in Florida!

Our Charity For This Event: What The Buc Really Matters

WTB Really Matters is a local Tampa volunteer and 501(c)(3) registered charitable organization that gets involved in the community and beyond. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to them as our official charity of the event. In their own words:

We always knew people wanted to do more if they just knew how, so like everything else we have done with WTB?, we jumped right in. With the help of social media we were able to answer the cries for help. We got involved by asking questions and by showing up. Early on maybe a handful of people would volunteer, I am proud to share with you that we just registered 60 sets of hands for an upcoming holiday event where we will help feed over 1000 people.

We have sent goodies to the troops overseas, packaged food for Africa, lent our voice to pediatric cancer, helped with the battle against domestic violence, raised money for the American Heart Association, grown beards for Movember, worn pink bras in October and provided toys for little ones during some scary times. There is magic and comfort in numbers, come have some fun with us while we help some less fortunate than us.
