Fans of the Chattanooga Mocs football team have one of the most unique tailgating opportunities in the nation. Adjacent to Finley Stadium is the First Horizon Pavilion. The old Ross-Meehan Foundry has been renovated into an open-air pavilion which has become a favorite tailgating spot for all Mocs fans.

The First Horizon Pavilion provides a perfect location for fans to enjoy all the traditions of tailgating plus the added amenities provided by the UTC Athletics Department. There is space available to tailgaters inside the pavilion and information on reserving these spaces is available here. However, most fans opt to park in the surrounding lots and stroll through the free activities located inside.

For more information on tailgating, individual or group tickets for UTC football call (423) 266-MOCS (6627).
