Tailgate burn ban???

Has anyone heard about any problems with having fires at tailgates this year? All I can find officially is contained in the 2011 tailgating rules on the UT parking and transportation website stating that fires must be contained...

Just trying to make sure we don't have any surprises on Saturday when we lug the trailer pit and a bunch of raw meat down there...

Thanks in advance.
 
Went to the UT Club today and it said no grilling on a sign outside the garages....I would assume they were put up for Saturday. I know they (fire dept) stopped the HEB in my area from roasting green chiles this weekend.
 
There's never been grilling in garages... That could explain the signs you saw today. And typically roasting green chilis is done with an open flame. And perhaps both of my thoughts are purely wishful thinking...

Anyone with more insight???
 
We wondered about that for baseball tailgates but nobody cared and UTPD hung out with us at times while we were grilling.

The state lots off campus are patrolled by Stste Troopers and it will be interesting to see if they care.

We plan to fire up the smoker and a charcoal grill as usual Saturday and see what happens.
 
40 Acrz - We've been grilling in the garage next to Scholz's for years and we're on the bottom floor facing the street and no one, including DPS, has said a word. Hope they don't start now.
