Friday Night Party Elevates McNeese Tailgating

Cowboy Block Parties aim to bring major college experiences to students and fans of McNeese State University. Through a partnership with Lake Charles Toyota and Legacy Jewelers, the Cowboy Block Parties feature free, live concerts in the Robert Nolan Alumni Pavilion every Friday night prior to a Cowboy football home game.

Athletic Director, Heath Schroyer, stated, “It’s a new day and a new era for McNeese Athletics and I can’t wait to see the grove packed and people having a great time! Our people deserve this kind of experience and we’re excited to give it to them.”

Lake Charles Toyota has always supported local events that enhance the quality of life for the people of Southwest Louisiana. Following the Toyota Tailgate at Cowboy Country Fest, the Tarver family was eager to assist the McNeese Athletic Foundation in providing more events and experiences that smaller schools often miss out on. “We have a great game day experience at McNeese, but the noon kick-offs this season might cramp the festivities,” said Corey Tarver, Lake Charles Toyota General Manager. “Friday night gives us the opportunity to mark the official start of tailgating with a bang!”

As previously mentioned, admission to Cowboy Block Party will be free and outside food and drinks will be permitted. Food trucks will also be on site to sell various types of food.

Parking to the event will be free on the McNeese campus, but to park in the football lots, those attending must have a football season parking pass to park in those lots.

If you’re interested in buying an RV/tailgating spot for this season, contact the McNeese ticket office at 337-562-4678.
